#132163 - small and cheap accelerometer needed
Does anyone know where I can get a small and cheap,not nessecerily very accurate accelerometer? Its for a friend of mine who flies model rockets and hes got me building various bits and pieces so its got to be small and light.Ive already built a 2.4 Ghz video sender unit which transmits video from the rocket and I am using a avr mega8 (cough) to overlay various telemetry onto the video.
I think it basically needs to be able to handle +/- 15 G. not weigh anthing and not cost anything and consume no power as well would be good.
Cheers
