SkyRC GNSS Performance Analyzer Review
If you feel the need for speed, or atleast the need to know your speed. Then let's look at the GNSS (global navigation satellite system) Performance Analyzer GSM020 from SkyRC. Speed isn't the only thing this device will tell you. The GSM020 is designed for RC enthusiasts to optimize the performance of their RC cars by measuring various parameters, such as acceleration, G-force, max speed, average speed, and distance among other things. It will also measure vertical velocity and altitude for RC planes.
Inside the GSM020 there is a rechargeable lipo (lithium polymer) battery. On a full charge it can last up to 5 hours. USB wire included. Also, inside is a powerful antenna to communicate with 2 different satellite systems. GPS (global positioning system), and GLONASS (global navigation satellite system). All this in a compact device 40mmX40mmX17mm. About the size of a receiver. It can easily be mounted in your RC car.
The GNSS Analyzer has 3 LED indicators. 1 each for power, bluetooth connection, and satellite connection. There is a micro-USB port to charge the GSM020. The built-in flash memory can hold data for up to 50 runs. When the memory is full the latest runs will overwrite the oldest.
To view all the telemetry or save the data collected by the GSM020 analyzer you will need to use the RC Gears app on your phone. This is a free app you can download to your phone from the app store for IOS (Apple), or Google Play store for your android device. Not only can you save your data from previous runs via bluetooth connection on your phone, but you can also use the RC Gears app to get real time telemetry while you are racing, whether it is lap times, MPH, RPM, or a drag race. The RC Gears app also works with other SkyRC products. The SCWS2000 corner weight system, to help with proper weight distribution. 2 different digital camber and toe gauges, 1 for 1/8 scale, and 1 for 1/10 scale. An angle gauge for planes can also utilize the RC Gears app to adjust rudder values in real time.
Back to the GSM020 Performance Analyzer. Whether you are a hobbyist that just wants to know how fast your RC car goes, or a competitive racer that needs to fine tune every aspect of your car. The SkyRC GSM020 is a powerful tool that can help optimize the performance of your vehicle. The high precision GNSS sensor, data logging functions, along with the user-friendly interface of the RC Gears app make it an excellent choice for the RC enthusiast looking to improve and fine tune their car for that extra edge.
