    Dedicated Altimeter(s) For Each Rocket

    I have a fleet of about 7 quantums and two protons that i move around to the different rockets. Gives me the ability to be able to prep 3-4 rockets for a weekend and not have to move stuff around every rocket to fly.

    Yes the proton was main and quantum was backup. I also noticed that the decent curves were different. Accents are roughly the same, with both units experiencing the transonic bubble, I don’t really think they went over Mach but graph shows it was close. It is def very strange that the graphs...

    video Post flight notes: 1) Not a perfect flight by any means A) for unknown reasons yet (still troubleshooting with eggtimer cris) -- the proton (primary) sensed apogee, yet did not call nose over and fire primary apogee charge until 2500 ft or so. You can see the primary apogee charge...

    I ran up the proton last night also, and had it armed and it stayed on for an hour. I don't know what happened out in the field, chalking it up to the cold I suppose, and hope that I don't have any wonkiness again. Think I figured out the issue on the up camera too, so that shouldnt be an...
