Tilt the set-up 90° so the test subject hangs vertically from a scale.
That way, you'll eliminate gravity as a disturbing factor and you'll measure both forces (gravity and drag) in a linear system with only one variable.
Far easier ...

Superb idea.
If anyone does build it I would love to see pics. I have no space to do so until my MGB goes to the scrappy.
