This section allows you to write 2, 5, 10, etc. or all the recorded flight data to the USB stick for review and/or
evaluation. Flight data files will be stored in the “data” directory on the USB data stick.
Note: If you enter a system configuration screen and change any data, a new flight data file with a new flight
number may be started.
Note: Formatting information on recorded flight data can be found in the Appendix under the heading,
“Recorded Flight Data Formatting.”
“Data Recording Setup” Section:
“Recording Interval”: The time between recordings can
be set from 0.3 seconds to 10 seconds. The shorter the
recording interval the more memory will be required and the
less recording time will be available. Normally a recording
interval of 6 seconds will provide a good picture of each flight
and provide a total recording time of over 650 hours. If any
value goes into or out of a programmed limit, all values will be
recorded at that instant, regardless of the recording interval.
“Current Flight Number”: Every time the MVP is
powered-up the flight number is advanced and a new flight
data file is generated. The flight number and date are used to
identify the recorded data for each flight.
“Reset Flight Num. to 1?”: This line allows you to reset the flight number back to one. Previous flight data
files will not be deleted. The MVP will only delete old data files when memory is full and it is necessary to
make room for new data files.
