Description

Great flight, easy recovery, problems with computer #2, it worked but has a wonkey beep pattern even now (not the beep pattern for losing power). Looking at the flight data is freaky. At 382 feet above ground, suddenly the readings for altitude went to -1, 0 velocity, 31.98 degrees F! And 25.50 volts (was 9.2 the rest of the trip down) The flight recorder kept recording in this pattern to a total of 399.95 seconds, long after it landed. Bad computer, I will replace it.
