Go to Post Failure is in my eyes, the key to success. If you can deal with failure, look it in the eye, and conquer it, the hard stuff won't really intimidate you any more...and you can only get better. - Andy Grady [more]

Re: altitude sensors anyone?

You're correct that altimeters are nowhere near accurate enough.
I would recommend a MaxBotix SONAR sensor.
I'm guessing you want the narrow beam width, but it may take some testing to find out.
