Default RE: Data Loggers

John,

I'm really glad you shared the info about the Eagle Tree Flight Data Recorder. I had been tempted, but wasn't sure if it would be worth the money and effort (and risk). Now I'm convinced that it is worthwhile, and I want to get one soon. I'll have to figure out some way of mounting the rpm sensor on Quickies as well, unless you guys have already done that too and will share your method.

I'm already trying to figure out how to build the pitot tube right into composite wings. I can probably do what is done with tail skids and just notch the top and bottom wing molds on the LE. For wings without a pitot, I can put in a short section of fiberglass rod and sand it off after popping the wing out.

BTW, what is the fastest airspeed you guys have gotten from a QM-40?
