    That’s really interesting, I haven’t spent much time looking at the data from the landing impact. I’m also not confident in my skills to translate G-forces into velocities or such. I guess it depends largely on what type of surface it lands on? You’ve definitely got me thinking now. There’s a bunch of ways I could roughly come up with a model for this.
