Sounding rockets provide a useful platform for the aerospace research activities in which carry out a research payload to the space and recover it in the ground. In the flight path, it does scientific experiments and acquire the result for more analysis in the ground. All of the well-known aerospace centers around the world use frequently the various forms of sounding rocket to test and evaluate their sensitive space components. Actually, space qualification process of a space module is completed sometimes through a real space flight using the sounding rocket. In this paper the performance of a MEMS based inertial measurement unit (IMU) is investigated. The investigation result shows that using appropriate filtering, MEMS based IMU can measure appropriately the dynamic behavior of the sounding rocket. These data may be used for further identification and validation tests.
