Flybaby Position Error Update 3-9-15



Hey Guys,

So the position error that was observed on the 2-22-15 flight has become a bit of a science experiment, and like most science experiments it has begun a fascinating and hard spiral.

Chris Higbee drilled three more sets of holes in the probe to make it symmetric.  Interestingly the error is now symmetric as well, but there is still a beta based static error.

In-flight video and report below.

Go work on your airplane!!
