MicroPeak altimeter issues
Apologies if this thread exists already.
Has anyone purchased a Micropeak Altimeter from Apogee. THey are a fantastic idea at only a couple of grams in weight and perfect for records.....
I bought one but can't seem to get it to register a flight. There is now a MicroSplash... but i already spent my money.. crap. Has anyone had any success?

Hmm... Unfortunately I haven't tried ANY altimeters.
Have you contacted Apogee?

Are you launching well over 100ft? The microsplash does have a lower launch detect altitude change requirement.
I prefer the logging type so there's no need to detect launch.

AltimeterOne isn't a logging altimeter. The AltimeterThree perhaps?

Yeah contact apogee, might be a warranty issue. I used the HK altimeter with bluetooth radio wich is now gone with a lost upperstage. Worked but not as slick as the Alt3. Now I'm using the launchpad altimeter.
