Model Forum / General / Rockets / September 2003Cell Phones for Rockets?
I have several cell phones lying around after switching to newer models and a different carrier. I was wondering if the phones can be used for telemetry or GPS functions. Has anyone done anything in this area? I guess you could call and find out where it landed....(really...I do have a serious side)...worth thinking about certainly... > I guess you could call and find out where it landed....(really...I do have a > serious side)...worth thinking about certainly... http://www.the-earchives.com/wavs/f/ftrama041.wav >> I guess you could call and find out where it landed....(really...I do have a >> serious side)...worth thinking about certainly... > >http://www.the-earchives.com/wavs/f/ftrama041.wav LOL!

What about those GPS tracking bracelets made for children?  SignatureJim Yanik,NRA member jyanik@kua.net I've tried launching my children, and they just won't hold still (even if I give them a cell phone). -- David > > I guess you could call and find out where it landed....(really...I do > > have a serious side)...worth thinking about certainly... > > What about those GPS tracking bracelets made for children? I tried (for my child)one of the bracelets with little luck. Now using a cell phone for tracking ... I can see on the web the location and establish geo-fences. Cool stuff ... There are many providers, but I am currently using addressbook.com. > I've tried launching my children, and they just won't hold still (even if I > give them a cell phone).

Of course they did not make it obvious from the ad. RDH8 Sal (Muppet) has used a cellphone as a rocket, it was an old Ericsson, with a 2 motor cluster! It was "interesting"!! -- Paul. =================================== Expect the worst, hope for the best.....
