Record-able scale? Rocketry!

Hey guys, I am looking for a scale or something that I can plug in via usb and that will graph the changes as the force applied changes over time.

I am using this to test rocket motors and nozzle types for my model rockets. If you want to know any specifics or are interested in building your own please pm me =)

Please offer suggestions and such on what I could use! I might create a thread documenting my progress!

 

I would buy a PASPORT Force Sensor, and Rocket Engine Test Bracket (holds rocket engine)
You would also need a data collection software to graph and collect data. I recommend Xplorer GLX. There are many other data collection software's that will also work. Many are USB or completely wireless

 

If I remember correctly from High School that would work. I own a Pasco test bracket and could rig that to the Pasport so it pushes against it. Is Xplorer GLX easy to work with?

 

I have only used Xplorer GLX a few times, and I thought it was pretty easy to get the hang of. You shouldn't have a problem.
