GPSFlight - For Recreational Use!
Due to the extremely small
size of the transmitters, and the high refresh rate, many
have discovered the benefits of using GPSFlight for recreational
purposes! Ranging from robotics to sailboat racing,
GPSFlight technology is creating a whole new way to measure
performance.
RC Airplanes/Gliders/Helicopters - how
fast, how high, where is it. Record your flights to analyze
lift, engine performance, airfoil efficiency, or just to have
fun. Track multiple planes at the same time with
the TracID feature, and GPS-TEAM software - great for
competitive events!

High Power Rocketry
- Never
lose a rocket again because it keeps telling you where it is -
every second! Onboard telemetry provides a sure fire way to
recover those expensive birds, as well as to see the flight
unfold in real-time right on your computer screen. To recover a
rocket - plug the GPSFlight coordinates into a handheld GPS and
head straight there!

Parasailing - Track everything
as it happens. Let those on the ground KNOW exactly how high,
how fast, and how much fun you are having up there! With
TracID, see several parasailers aloft at the same time and see
altitude, speed, heading, etc!
Sailing Regatta - Place a
GPSFlight transmitter on each boat, and see all racers plot on
the same screen back at the boathouse. An excellent tool
for race tracking, training, etc.
Windsurfing - Put a GPSFlight
unit on your back, and take off. Track real-time speed, heading,
for those on the shore. Get epic air with your kite, and see
how high you REALLY go!

Here a
Transmitter is placed into an avionics
bay aboard a 2.5" diameter rocket. This enables this
rocket to be tracked in real-time, reporting information
about where it is back to the ground so it can be easily
found later. [See the flight] |
