Hey,
Just a heads up on the Android app "GPS Rocket Locator". It's not an intrinsic problem
with the app itself or a danger to one's device it's simply that Google maps don't work anymore.
I received this reply from the author:
"You are right. It doesnt work anymore...
They probably changed the url for getting tiles. I dont know when i will have time to work on it. Im busy these times."
I've asked if there is a way to set the default to OSM for new installs. I'll see what he says.
If anyone has cached maps for off line use, be careful with your system because there isn't
the means to restore for now.
It was nice to see how close to a farm building or electric line or tree one's flight went but the OSM maps are adequate to plan a recovery. Sometimes it's easier to drive on road to a place where it's a shorter hike to pick up one's rocket. Kurt
