The Eggtimer is a full-function barometric flight computer kit, featuring:
o Two high-current deployment channels (Main and drogue/airstart)
o Three logic-level channels (drogue, main, landing detect), easily interfaced to high-current drivers
o Outputs are opto-isolated from the low-voltage logic, completely brownout-proof
o Native support for standard R/C servos as well as igniters
o Connectors for external deployment continuity LEDs, buzzer, and Ready status LED
o 32-flight memory, sampling selectable from 4-33 samples/sec
o Kalman filtered altitude/velocity, "mach immune" so deployments can't happen until you're past apogee
o Airstart support, requires three events for ignition (breakwire, minimum altitude, burn/delay timer expiration)
o Flight summary downloadable as a standard text file
o Flight details downloadable as a standard .CSV file, can be imported into Excel or virtually any stat program
o Uses standard VT100/ANSI text terminal programs for programming, programmable with virtually any type if computer
o Eight pre-programmed flight profiles, so you can program it out in the field without a computer
o Easy to build, SMT parts are pre-mounted; you only have to solder the through-hole parts
o Operates from 3-4v, works great with a single 3.7V LiPo cell or a 3V lithium battery (like a CR123)
o $40 INCLUDING the USB-Serial data transfer cable
