Ive been working on the wingtip mounted solution. Trying to make a single small simple package out of the tracker and GPS. I am also gonna try and mount a simple 1/8" jack in the aft wingtip support rib to allow for quick programming of the tracker. Ill update my progress as time goes. Started studying for my HAM radio test. Geez I feel this nasty urge to run out and buy a ham radio and geek out over the airways.
OK one thig at a time. I went to Rat Shack and believe it or not, right on the shelf they had my panel mount jack I needed to mount. cool.![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Since the tracker uses the same pin for its gps input and the programming serial input, I needed a way to switch from programming to gps. This will work.
started a web page to log progress. Thanks goes to Sam and Pete and crew for getting me all spun up on this. This is really neat stuff. more to come.
