"Version 1.1 of the firmware does not have the "long range" option available and I will be using this as a rangefinder for an airrifle scope setup from 40-100m. . Also it does not have the signal strength showing in the terminal mode,
"I have an SF11/C (120m) rangefinder/altimeter with firmware Version 1.1. Does it need to be updated? I noticed mention of Version 1.21 in the manual , but cannot find any instructions/download.
"Thank you for the information. You are right. Did some more digging. Looks like that these are designed to work with larger objects not the small aerosol particles needed to measure wind velocity. That type of Anemometer LIDAR has a beam…"
I am trying to figure out what are the internals of the LaserWorks (Boblov) LE-032 700M Laser Range Finder as far as laser-module used. Also, how does it compare with the LightWare SF11/C (120 meter) module?Are they two totally different…

"Paradoxical, but with many 3DR items (and technology) cloned by Chinese companies, it requires discipline for US and Canadian 3DR buyers not to ship internationally their 3DR items that are yet not vetted for export control, thus potentially…"
"The issue is probably the State Department's oversight/permit of "export of sensitive technology" to certain countries or foreign entities. Certain items require an export license, or are prohibited."
"Maxime, that's a good point. Reliability is a big factor and until that's solved not many would risk their lives. The winner multi-copter of this contest above could lift a small adult (47kg/103lbs) in the air. Wonder, how long battery would last.…"
"Jason....I think that would be the best solution. All the hardware are already in place for all who own an APM. I assume it should work for the props too once to motors are balanced."
"Looks very useful. I think the LAT and LON could be smaller since one would use it in case of a downed drone, not all the time. I would like to see distance from Home and distance to destination, vertical speed, battery percentage or calculated…"
