I have performed some measurements last season using a bmp085 sensor running at roughly 40Hz (I recall, no oversampling anyway).
In my Pilatus B4 I had it mounted behind my head, between the wings. I could see an effect when I was rolling over the ground during winch launching, where pressure increased slightly. I could also see perfectly when I opened my airbrakes, which made a very sharp drop of roughly 20 meters. When I closed them the value restored to the old value again. I have not yet tried a wide variety of speed ranges, nor have I been able to compare the reported altitude with a GPS receiver. That is planned for next season. |
