The FAI sporting code disallows GSM networking, too. An example of archaic outdated rules that have no use in modern times like this. I hope all of these get revised, or the "information age" will officially be postponed (and everybody ignores the ban anyway, just official contests can't use it). > Which is quite a big problem if we consider 2014 WGC.

Due to the lean protocol, SkyLines costs less than other tracking solutions. Choose a tracking interval that has the best usefulness/price ratio. I just think that any means of wireless communication (except for the normal VHF radio) is forbidden. Is there even an exception for FLARM?
