It was fun messing around with this thing. The monorail was tough cause the stops are not very far apart and there are a lot of turns so it kept slowing down. The plane would have been more interesting if the program could log about a mile or more then 30 seconds of data.

though i find it odd that both the rail and the plane hit the same amount of G's.
