Description
The GPS tracker STRATOfinder is your “life insurance” for a successful stratosphere mission. Our goal was to develop a reliable GPS tracker that is perfectly suited for the use in a stratospheric flight. With a GPS antenna three times larger than conventional 4G GPS trackers, the STRATOfinder offers optimal reception and transmits its position with an accuracy of 5 meters. Using the free Stratoflights app, you can integrate one or multiple STRATOfinders into the app and view the current position data at any time. With a simple click, the Stratoflights app navigates you directly to the landing site of your probe.
Even if the weather balloon crosses a national border, that’s not a problem either, because: The integrated STRATOsim card offers you maximum security through global coverage in over 189 countries! The STRATOfinder automatically connects to the best available mobile network, regardless of the provider, no matter the country. This provides the widest possible network coverage – there’s no greater security for a successful mission! To activate the STRATOfinder, we offer a fair subscription that can be booked with different durations.
The lightweight and robust design is perfectly suitable for use in the stratosphere. And if the STRATOfinder should “freeze” due to the icy temperatures during the stratospheric flight: Unlike conventional GPS trackers, the STRATOfinder operates entirely without buttons, so the STRATOfinder automatically turns back on and continues to transmit its position data after “thawing.”
With all these features, we were able to realize our dream of a perfect GPS tracker for stratospheric flights with the STRATOfinder.
Thomas Janssen –
The Stratofinder works perfectly and is easy to install, although I recommend reading the manual, which is very well written. It’s an ideal device to combine with the SPOT Trace, as a backup solution. One thing I am missing is the ability to get the exact coordinates and more stats like height and motion after the flight (some kind of report, which is possible to generate with the SPOT Trace).
