    Lucy ★★★★★

    The GPS tracking on this thing saved my last launch — I could see exactly where it landed in the tall grass before I even started walking. Dual deploy worked flawlessly on a J motor, and the telemetry link stayed solid the whole way up.

    Eva ★★★★★

    Logged all four flights from my L3 build without a single dropout, and the dual-deploy timing was dead on every time. Being able to pull live GPS coordinates during descent made recovery way less stressful.

    Sofia G. ★★★★★

    The GPS telemetry downlink saved my last flight — I could watch altitude and position in real time instead of guessing where it landed. Recording worked flawlessly through both deployment events, and the data playback afterward was way cleaner than I expected.
