6th test of EggFinder GPS system. The reported position for the last 10 - 15 packets as it was landing was off by 2100 ft. After searching where it said it landed and not picking up any new packets, I move closer to the launch pad by 1000 ft. and got a single packet. Put that into google maps and it showed a location 850 ft. away and even closer to the pad. When I got to that location, it started picking up packets again and when I stood over the nose cone with the TX, it reported a position 85 ft. away.
| Actual Altitude: | 6,145 Feet (Altimeter) |
