Flight 4 AltAcc data

FlightAnalyzer data plot

The data shows a couple of interesting deployment details. The first is that apogee deployment happened before the AltAcc fired its drogue charge. The RDAS should have been later since I normally use a version of the firmware that is biased to late deployment.

The second is that the AltAcc deployed the main. This isn't great as that is supposed to be the backup. I noticed while watching it descend under the drogue that is seemed to be lower than the expected main deployment altitude.

On the plus side, the shock from the very hard concrete landing didn't break the ceramic resonator on the AltAcc.

The altitude at apogee is in remarkably close agreement with the Rocksim simulation which was 3,900'
