Damn I'm hungry
Could someone post a picture of the "tag" device that goes on the plane or what is to be tracked. Please and thank you!

@49dimes. This will cost you a Cheeseburger LOL!! Here are a few shots of the tag I took a shot of it sitting by a servo so you can compare size

OK, let's talk about how you're setting the tag in/on your plane. The strap it comes with is a bit unwieldy. You could set it in the fuse with Velcro. That should be good for electrics, but the vibrations of a nitro/gas plane make the tag go bonkers and switch from Standby to Record. How would you strap it down on a piece of foam? Can't zip tie it, because you need to be able to remove it easily.

Strap it to the landing gear with a Velcro strap. Might add some Velcro to the back side as well to keep it from sliding around.

Put a piece of foam under the tag then secure it with 3M clear packing tape. White Top side of tag up :yesss:
