Sorry for the long title. I am getting back into rocketry after another 5 year hiatus and looking to pick up a solid flight computer. I would like one that has an accelerometer and baro and I it would be preferable to have a nice software package for configuration and analysis.
Mainly I would like to be able to back out Cd info of the rocket vs. speed and at the same time be able to back out motor thrust for characterization/verification purposes. If a software package could do it all for me without matlab/excel/whatever that would be swell.
Was leaning towards the Featherweight raven as a good bang for the buck, can the software handle this duty?
Will likely build a Eggtracker and maybe a egg timer as backup but that doesn't help me with accelerometer data.
Thanks!
Pax
