Today I launched a IQSY 2.36" Tomahawk, on an H242 out in the Eastern Oregon high desert (All Sagebrush)
It landed ~7,000'+ feet away over undualting hills, and on the low side of a rise, quite literally buried in sagebrush. (Tip: Don't use Grey/Bue chutes like I did!
)
No one saw it come down due to distance away and no one would have ever found this thing as where to even start looking.
I had a Featherweight GPS tracker in the nose.
Drove to the CPA, and walked another ~1,800' cross country up sandy, sagebrush hills .
Went right to it. No searching, no mis-steps, This thing was dead on. (although the phone was annoying, as it kept trying to sleep).
Didn't matter how the tracker unit was held either. In the car, held high, in my pocket... It never hiccuped. And it was definatly NOT LOS to the rocket from the launch point
I can not say enough about how well this thing worked.
And I can say with confidence that I will NEVER fly a rocket again without one of these aboard!
