Any plans for a higher altitude baro? Looks like you are saturating something (65536). Or does the software integrate acceleration to give a reasonable approximation? I'm not looking to set any records, just some personal goals. But would love to invest in something that can measure 100k or so.
Sorry for the late reply.
The software inertial navigation gives fairly accurate apogee measurement depending on the duration of the flight. Most of the time it's between 4 and 10%. Sometimes it can be wrong up to 15% but it's still more than enough for accurate high altitude deployment timing.
The barometer on the other hand is only valid for flight lower than 60,000 ft and there's indeed plans to upgrade it in futur models of the Fluctus.
Follow up - I purchased from Wildman, but would love to have 2. They still don't carry the computer without ground station. Should I just order from the Fluctus site (don't need it quickly).
As darrenf said, yes you can order a standalone Fluctus on the Silicdyne website.

I would really like to see some more development on the software side. It seems everything has stopped after August of last year. Still no iOS app in the app store.
Development is just slower, but it's still going on behind the scenes.
The 1.6 will surely be one of the last for Fluctus 1, bringing the final touches of comfort and reliability.
As I said the mobile apps will be officially released next, and all documentation updated.
Then I'll move on to the other products, including the Reperix tracker which is waiting to be pushed to the finish line.
Yeah, I definitely need the iOS app to make sure of it. Hopefully that goes lives before February
I hope so too. Sorry for the awfully long delay.
