Eggfinder fits, but not in a coupler - only in a body tube. I'm using a Ready To Fly Quads Micro M8N gps tied to a TBeacon for my 29mm.
It requires a license to use it?
I was aware of the Egg Finder, but since it was a kit I sort of assumed it was not small enough. Gives me even more pause about buying one. To bad they don't sell the thing assembled for an additional charge. In that way you can see it and use it before you spend a bunch of time building it only to have it not work when you're done.
Anything else out there?
Conor builds 'em for a reasonable fee. Check around at your next launch to see egg* in action.

Can you post a picture of this setup?
RTx also fits in a 29mm tube (not coupler) @ 28.5mm width
An Eggfinder TX easily fits in a 29mm coupler, I have one in the NC of one of my 54mm rockets on a basswood sled with a 180 mAH 2S LiPo. It's closed off with an Estes screw-on motor mount that I plugged. An Eggtimer TRS (the GPS tracker & dual-deploy combo) will not fit in 29mm; it will fit in a BT55 body tube, though.
No license required... it's on the 900 MHz band.
Did you read my concerns on purchasing a kit? Your product's features and price are right for me to start using trackers, but I'm going to need some questions answered, are you game?
Conor's a person who hangs out here, and with whom many of us have done business.
Chris has been very helpful troubleshooting the Egg kits, and stands by his product though the fault is almost always in assembly.
If you're looking for a CE+UL and 10y bumper-to-bumper w/ undercoat, a kit may not be the right choice.

Since I don't no how to reach Coner some contact info would be a big help.
That sounds great, but that really does not answer the question. What does he do, send you a whole new kit if it does not work after assembly? Doubt that.
Not looking for that at all and your comparison in not accurate in any way so please don't make if for me.
BTW.. my question, which you quoted, was clearly directed at cerving. I suspect as a business person marketing his product he does not want you speaking for him any more than I want you speaking for me so please don't.

I can tell you what happens first if it doesn't work: he goes over pictures of your assembly himself. Cris has spent enough time helping me with issues largely of my own doing (soldered parts in the wrong place, and built a leaky av bay) that at one point I literally asked if I could retroactively at least pay him full price for some items I had bought on sale. I have no doubt he would send me a replacement if the parts were bad.
Presumably actual customer experience is a reasonable response to your question...
Use the new website Google.com and search the phrase "eggtimer assembly" the first return will be Conner's post on this forum advertising his services.
Cris can't do the assembly because of FCC rules. If he did, he'd have to get it stamped by them. It's completely fine to have a 3rd party assemble it though.Customer testimonials are great thanks! I'd hate to have to impose that way and not be able to reimburse him for it, that's why I'm surprised he won't assemble for a fee.
Chris, I would really like to know more about your product despite how dhbarr is attempting to characterize my interest.
