Have you ever wondered how high your Radio Controlled model could go?  Now you can find out.  Just install ZLog on your plane - be it a parkflyer, sailplane, hotliner, or 3D aerobatic.  At only a few grams, your plane won't know it's there.  Instantly know how high your flight went with the onboard display.  You can also record the complete flight for analysis on your PC with the USB interface (Z6R version).

Z6M Version 1.3 or later is compatible with OpenLog microSD logger.

The Z6M and OpenLog are straight pin-pin compatible.  Just supply 3.3 volts and it will automatically log Time, Altitude, Pressure, and Temperature once per second in a comma separated file onto a microSD card.  Great for those long-term altitude logging experiments like high altitude balloon flights.  Or use it to record temperature and pressure  for long-term weather logging.
