Auto Data Logging?

Post by mac44mag »

It's entirely possible that I'm just not using the correct search parameters, but is there a provision in Open9X for logging flight data (altitude, GPS, etc) directly to the SD card during flight so that the data can be retrieved and reviewed afterwards? Or, am I asking too much?

I'm flying a Turnigy 9X with the Gruvin v4.1 board and currently building the SD card.

Thank you for any input you may be able to provide.

Romolo:

Once again, you've come through. I figured it was there after some of the things I've read on the Gruvin9X discussion board.

How do I program the switch? What can I use to read the data after downloading it off of the card? Is it a .txt file (or equivalent)?

This part has been written by Bryan himself. It will generate a csv file with the data logged. You may open it from OpenOffice or his clone from M$ ;)

OUTSTANDING! Do I just format the SD card in Windows 7 using FAT32?
