They claim an unobstructed range of 2500 ft for the tracker, it doesnt record GPS coordinates but it is water resistant and looks like it would be a great lost drone tracker. Only weighs 16 g.
Comments
That's 2500 in open space right? Under ideal conditions? I would be more interested to see what happens when you stick it in the trees and see what kind of range you get then.
