Hey ya'll, I just had a prop strike and shot my TBS M8 GPS off the arm and subsequently shot the tiny battery off the GPS unit. Will it still function the same without the battery?
No matter what, ItsAllGood.

 23-Jul-2020, 03:02 AM From what I read, the battery stores previous satellite information for quicker inquisition. I believe that the GPS unit will work, it will take longer to get the satellites evwrytime you boot up.  23-Jul-2020, 05:25 PM (23-Jul-2020, 03:02 AM)voodoo614 Wrote: From what I read, the battery stores previous satellite information for quicker inquisition.

That's what I figured, I'll just get a new one since they're so cheap and stash this one for a future basher build. Thank you!

Not a huge priority. I also want to get another generic Bentian BN180 as I seem to have had better results than the TBS M8. No matter what, ItsAllGood. |
