Tracy,
For the benefit of myself and others on the list, can you describe just what it takes to incorporate a data logger into the EM-2.  I'm curious as to where to purchase the hardware, what to purchase, where to plug it in, what s/w do I need to view the data, etc.  Sorry to ask such a novice question, but this is one area I've never ventured.  Looks like its time I learn.
 
I do have a DATAQ Instruments DI-194 data board.  It has 8 input channels and a DB-9 connector.  I think it was intended to directly interface with a PC.  Is this something I could use, or do I need something more sophisticated?

If I can settle on the packaging, the DL1 (Data Logger 1) will be ready for prime time and you won't have to fly with a camcorder.  As Ed has mentioned with his fuel flow instrument, this can be one of the thorniest problems in product development.
