Hahaha :-) My wife also thinks i need one permanently attached to my forehead as we go off flying our models at a moments notice (especially when the weather is good) Yes - please post a pic... would like to see it. I haven't yet printed a mount..... BUT after looking around to print one...

Hi The V42 I have may have a very sensitive receiver. I can get an accurate Location, even with the tracker upside down in my pocket. (sometimes all this while indoors) I suppose each make of tracker is different. - I have not had any real Location issues in normal usage. The tracker produces...

My V42 works very well - also the location accuracy is good and usually spot on if my update frequency is short (all configurable remotely) Try the following: Set the interval for uploading to 30s (precise Location) then leave it for around 3-5 mins in clear location to receive Sat Lock (i.e...

EUREKA!!!! :cool: Kudos to Reachfar Support!!!!.. They have so far been excellent in promptly replying all emails and answering questions, and have now supplied the SMS codes supported on the RF-V42 (attached PDF) Well Done ReachFar!!!

Hahaha!!! living in some remote areas of This Great (Is)Land can feel like living on Jupiter's largest sat..!

I am now playing/experimenting with the RF-V42, which is the 3G WCDMA version. The RF-V16, as far as I am aware is 2G only.. I used the V16 for a while until 2G telco support was dropped in Australia, which rendered the V16 2G device obsolete. The V42 is a slight bit larger then the V16, but...

Just a few pics showing the Belt Clip/Holder..

Nice Link - explains WCDMA, which is what we (In Australia) need to look out for. I have not yet attached the tracker to my Phantom - The tracker comes with a holder/belt clip. I was planning to stick the holder with some strong all weather scotch double tape to the Phantom, but the V42 pops...

There is an option in the app to put 30 seconds, 10 minutes or 60 Min. I have tried 30 sec and it gets the "Real Time" location lock in the app fairly accurately and quickly, however the battery gets used a lot faster - lasts about a day. (rather then around 2 if updating 10 min.) Using the app...

Hi. - hope you all had a Good Easter.......Now to answer a few questions...., I got the B version - 900/2100Mhz - mainly because 900/2100 Mhz 3G support on either 900 or 2100Mhz frequency is provided by the 3 main Telcos in Australia (Telstra, Optus & Vodaphone) see website: Australian Phone...

Hi Kerrylaw.. I'm in Australia (Melbourne)

Just received the RF-V42 yesterday and have been trying it out. It is slightly bigger then the v16 although not too big for it to be a problem to attach to a P3 or P4. In Australia, Telstra (biggest telco) has shut down 2G and Optus (2nd largest Telco) is in the process of shutting down thus...

Ken, that's what I'm thinking. In case of a crash, I don't mind replacing $20 legs to save a $600 camera and gimbal.

Litz that's a fair point you make. Just wondering if using it without the ties as suggested by bluer101 above may help. When you crashed did the protector "save" the camera/gimbal?
