Hi Glendon,
thank you for your feedback. For your project, I would check the “z” axis acceleration: while it is at its max value, probably you are still at the rising phase. When the Z acceleration goes lower than 0.9, then you probably reached the top altitude and your rocket is starting its falling phase. But this is only in theory, the practice is always the only correct certainty 🙂

This is the first one that made sense and worked first time. Thank you so much! 😀
Now, how can I control a servo with the gyroscope data?
I need to create a tilt controlled servo that goes in a model rocket, so when the rocket tilts over at apogee the sensor triggers the servo and opens a parachute hatch.
Can you help?

I have a question though, how do I calculate the tilt angle of the sensor with the raw data?
