Advanced Flight Simulation
OpenRocket offers more advanced options for simulating flight. You can plot your rocket's predicted acceleration, climb, eject and landing, make a prediction for how far downrange and in which direction your flight will land, and even experiment with different models of Earth's geometry, as it affects your flight. Once you're satisfied with a sim, you can export your data for analysis and charting in other packages.
