SkyRC GPS Speed ​​Meter

Stop wondering how fast your RC car is going or how high your airplane or helicopter can fly. Because with this small device, SKYRC gives you all this data at hand. And that from now on in a technically advanced version.

The high popularity of global navigation satellite systems (or GNSS for short) inspired SKYRC to develop this ultra-compact device weighing just 45g for RC model making. The antenna was hidden inside the housing and a highly sensitive receiver chip determines the current position at lightning speed. A robust controller interface records speed and altitude in real time.

The GSM-015 GPS Speed Meter is therefore ideal for all RC racers and pilots, but also for cyclists or for longer trips. The user can easily read information such as speed, altitude, total distance (KM) or longitude & latitude on the display. In addition, the device saves the top speed and maximum altitude as a value, so the RC fan can give his model the final touch and optimize it further.
