Ping Tracker

new technology will be out before they distribute...
I hope you're right on this one. There cannot be enough competition when it comes to small GPS trackers like this. We could really use some more options for drones.
 
Just got an email today from "Josh" at Ping telling me they have a limited number of units available for preorder for people on the waiting list, along with a link to order one. $129 includes an attachment clip, charger and cradle, the app (Android/iOS) and 1 year of service.

Yep me too. My first thoughts was he raised millions and claims to have shipped 100 units 2 years later yet no one can find anyone that has one. Now he's taking more preorders......MONEY GRAB!!!!

His message states that he won't take your money until it ships
It sure does. I guess it's really not a money grab at all. It sounds more like planning ahead (or keeping the interest of those who are waiting).

Yeah but, still, I'd like to know if it lives up to expectations before I order one because it's not gonna be as simple as returning it to Walmart and get your money back in case it doesn't work out.

Right. So, I guess you shouldn't pre-order one. Wait for someone (like me) to give you the scoop.

If you go to pre order he says it ships within 90 days. Does that mean every order that ordered from the campaign will be filled by then>?

Msinger quick ? I noticed on the Ping site they've changed battery life to 3 weeks. On the Indigo site it's 3 months. Do you know why this has changed?

The Ping site currently states the battery lasts "three weeks or longer". The Indigo site currently states the battery lasts "up to 3 months".

I guess both statements could be accurate? Perhaps the tracker has different modes like the Trackimo trackers? Not sure. I'm still trying to get my hands on one to learn how they work.
 
I'm still trying to figure out why my Drone Mods tracker no longer works. The tracker itself works but the system doesn't. Can't reach anyone on this. Didn't even get a notice of this. I liked it when it was in service.
 
I did some research but could not find an active website for the Drone Mods tracker, but I did find a link to an older thread on this subject. According to the poster, Drone Mods went out of business sometime after December 2017. There was a reference to that tracker using 2G on the AT&T network.
