Is this a 2G or 3G tracker? 2G is no longer available in my area.

I got a new one and am having issues as well. I wonder if it is because these are 2G devices and 2G has been phased out? Anyone still have a ReachFar tracker that is still working? If so, where are you located and what network?

The RF-V16 is a GPS tracker, the RF-V18 is a GMS tracker. The V16 uses GPS satellites to get a much more accurate location (1M accuracy), the GMS tracker uses cell phone tower triangulation to get location (10M accuracy). The Difference Between GSM & GPS

FreedomPop has a free plan with 200MB of data/mo. SIM Card: Free SIM-Only Phone Service This would be great for our use as there would be no re-accruing costs and no need to remember to add $$ to the account every 3 months. Make sure that you cancel the free trial stuff AFTER the the sim...

I just got the ballot for AMA Executive Vice President. I almost threw it out as I figured it doesn't effect me and I don't really care, but glad I didn't. In it is the background on the two candidates, which just happened to start reading before I was about to throw it away. One candidate...

I want to take time lapse of a project over a few months. I don't want to create the mission a head of time, but want to fly, find the perfect spot and then save those spots and angles for future missions. I have DJI Go and Litchi apps to use.

I can't believe the Shield has been out for over a year and there hasn't been a replacement or a price drop. Still $200. :(

I've got a Phantom P3P and a Hubsan X4. Been flying for a few years. I'm looking for something cheaper, smaller, and more agile/fun to fly. Something that doesn't take 10 minutes to get in the air once I decide I want to fly. And something that isn't huge that will get my neighbors in a...

H501S is a little too big. The H502S looks to be a little bigger than the X4 so just about right. ;) Just not sure how quick or agile the H502S is compared to the X4.

I'm looking for something about the size of a Hubsan X4, but with FPV and GPS and good range under $300 all in. Any suggestions?

Are there any Android or iPhone drone flight simulator apps that work with the Phantom 2 Vision Plus remote and WiFi extender?

What app do you guys use to take pics to make 3D maps?

What is the current best software or servit for creating 3D mesh maps? I've used Pix4D for small stuff, but no matter how many pics I use it doesn't seem to come out as good as other demos I've seen. Also I'd like to be able to see it online, but it never works when I try to upload to their...

The Pix4D app works really well and easy for taking pics for you. Only issue is the FPV screen does nit work, so you cant see what you are doing. This is a kown issue but they haven't done anything to fix it and its been an issue for a while. To get around this i start off in DJI Go app and...
