Flight Path Predictions:
Well, looking at your staion statistics, It looks like the HAM telemetry worked! Did you end up getting the MicroTrack AIO? Any photos of how you positioned the antenna?
We did – the MicroTrack AIO worked flawlessly! We were really happy with it. We used the center fed 2-meter dipole antenna with the short 12″ SMA coax. Since we wanted to use it as is, we ended up just attaching it to the top of the capsule and attaching the antenna to the side.
