    Awesome comparison. Great they got pretty close to each other. You're right. The cycplus needs some time for getting the resulut. Maybe that's why the Meilan one got off the line🤔. Curious how many would switch to this now😂

      @@RCBirds i did an earlier run over a short distance and there was a huge difference. Glad I did a longer run so they had time to read the satellites etc.

    "So it gives all of the bollox"!!! 🤣🤣 That was priceless mate! 😂 But anyway, an excellent experiment. They are all similar for sure but if you were using the Meylan you'd beat someone with exactly the same speed car that used any of the others. TBH I don't think it's fair to count the decimal points because most meters don't show that detail. Food for thought! 😎😎👍👍

    Truly appreciate you showing this as some people are having some issues with their speed readers. I own two and mine were within tenths. The meilan, and skyrc. It’s in my opinion a matter of signal strength. Cheers.

    Cool to see them all together on one run and nice to see they are all about the same. The Meilan will read a little high and then a little low. I switched to the GNSS as I can leave it in the car and secure it well, the others were not as easy to do that. Plus I felt more confident it was accurate.
