At what height does it start tracking? If I set it and the launch malfuctions and it only goes 10', does it register?

Ted - I think the directions state that the altimeter won't register below 30'.

Yes it will measure heights at 10 feet. When we opened packaged we turned it on and went upstairs to next level and it was amazing it measured that small of a change. We just used for science fair project and had a couple launches that looked identical from ground point of view and were measured within a few feet with altimeter ....

Remember that this device calculates distance based on ball speed and trajectory (launch angle) through the use of doppler radar. The launch angle is pre-determined by inputting tour club selection (trajectory if loft angle of thr club) so if you typically have a lower or higher ball flight, then this is not very accurate at all. In fact, no one has the same trajectory everytime they hit a ball, so my answer is no...not very accurate. I sold mine and bought a laser. I get much more use out of a laser, especially on the course. True launch monitors, like Trackman, calculate distance using true ball speed, trajectory, and spin. You cannot get feedback like that out of a $200 device. Remember that this device calculates distance based on ball speed and trajectory (launch angle) through the use of doppler radar.

Mine wasn't good for any people. It doesn't even work--just says 70 some pounds.If you just want it to stand on it is low to the ground and has big numbers. Too bad they don't say your correct weight or anything close to it. (I'm not seventy some pounds, I'm much bigger and no it wasn't metric, that part doesn't work either.)

I set the sensor at number "7" and it sprayed approximately 32 feet. The distance depends on whether or not your terrain is level and if you have it pointed up or down. My terrain is level and I have my unit as level as possible.

It self calibrated when I first set it up. I have moved it twice since then with no problems.

There is a reset switch--try resetting. Mine is set up say 10 feet above ground

Hello Sammy. It's about 10"-12" but we don't use it. We bought the first one and they ended up replacing it with another but both performed the same way. If you are trying to ship anything under 3-5 pounds it won't register and even the ones over 5 lbs. only register correctly half the time. I don't recommend the scale at all. Sorry

You can call the rinnai factory tech and he can run you thu how to adjust for altitude but it would be better to have a licenced mech. who has the tools and the know how. I am licenced and put one in at 8400 ft but I did not have the gaugeto check it out. you need a dual manometer and the only person who has one is a specialist.

It further than you can see. So make sure your return to launch is working.

It's not very tall at all. I would say mine probably is no taller than 3 inches off the ground.

I never saw a notice to mount it a minimum of 7 feet off the floor. Mine is mounted about 1.5 feet down from a 10 foot ceiling so with the height of the unit makes it about 7+ feet off the floor. It is mounted over a workbench so there is no danger of hitting it with work pieces moving around, but it seems like the right height for the unit. I would think that you could mount it at any height that would make sure you don't hit it with moving your work pieces around. As for operating the unit, it seems to me that the closer you can place it to the source of dust and airborne particulates, is the best place to mount it.

No. I have a 15' Deep V Tracker and it works great..I purchased the Co-pilot and it is a nice feature.

I have had mine for a few months and have had not problems measuring along the side walls of a house or other building. Every once in a while it does not register as I am measuring, but a quick reset does the trick. That has happened when measuring on the ground, only.

David - the Soloshot has not worked for me indoors. You also must be at least 50ft away for the tracking to work.

It's mounted 7'-10' high to be detected maximum distance up to 60'-70' (@75F or less). if just detects 10'-20' away that have to adjust sensitivity knob via clockwise to increase its sensing range.

On mine,it always starts at zero and I click it up to the resistance I want. It's never stuck on a level before for me.
