[BA-Rockets] altitude tracking at DeAnza

I noticed that there are some "measuring wheels" for sale on eBay.
These are the devices you roll on the ground and read the distance
off an odometer looking readout.  They aren't too expensive.  I'd
be willing to buy one and bring it to the BayNAR and LUNAR launches.
During setup, I could measure out a few spots and mark them with
a traffic cone.  For LUNAR, some compromise will have to be made
given that there are several low power racks at the park.  Perhaps I could
measure from a central spot among the pads.
