2.4 GHz data RX LCD monitor
Worrying about losing a model vehicle comes to an end with this precise position detector (crash-site-finder) 2.4 GHz Data RX LCD Monitor from RC Logger. In combination with the TX module and the GPS module (both not included), the
RX module indicates the last known position before the RC model has been lost. The RX module will indicate the distance and direction of the last recorded coordinates in relation to a reference position (set at take-off). The recorded data is highly accurate and hence very close to the place of impact. In addition, the RX module displays all telemetry data such as voltage, power, RPM, temperature, humidity, pressure, etc., which is transmitted by the TX module. Further distinctive features are the optional available tripod and the upgradeable firmware.
