Electronic staging while practical is not commonly adopted. There is an area that could use work. It is pretty common now in the HPR arena, but after seeing a full dataset on a 732 foot Big Bertha flight I have to believe it is practical for MR and LMR now. Featherweight Raven, Transolve P7?

I would like to see that software back out the motor thrust curve data from accel data. You may have to know rocket mass to know power.
