Figure 87: Capabilities of Data Recorder (Seagull Pro Telemetry System)<br />

The specific components that will be used for these measurements are described in the following:<br />

Dual Channel A/D Input Board (DUAL – AD)<br />

• Allows for team to add analog sensors, such as angle of attack sensor. The analog to<br />

digital converter has a 15 bit resolution and has two channels.<br />

Electric Expander -100 Amp (ELEC-EXP-100)<br />

• Measures motor battery-pack current and voltage.<br />

G-Force Expander (GFORCE-38)<br />

• Capable of measuring G-force up to +/- 38 G’s. Also measures dual axis acceleration.<br />

GPS Expander Module (GPS-STD)<br />

• Key measurements include: Latitude and longitude, GPS altitude, ground speed, and<br />

distance to pilot (WAAS compatible).<br />

Optical RPM Sensor (OPT-RPM)<br />

• Measures the revolutions per minute of the motor.<br />

Pitot Static System<br />
