Interactive log viewer for flight logs recorded with blackbox

Betaflight Enhanced Blackbox Explorer

This tool allows you to open logs recorded by Betaflight's Blackbox feature as a native application. You can seek through the log to examine graphed values at each timestep. If you have a flight video, you can load that in as well and it'll be played behind the log.
