RF lock was present before, during and after all flights except the Patriot flight, we found this may have been due to ejection forces and poor mounting. The GPS1 module survived the GPS1 C* CATO and is still flyable.<br \/>\nSpecial thanks to David Robb and to Jimmy Franco for the great flying!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012.jpg\"><img data-attachment-id=\"293\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=293\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1273,649\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Summer 2012 Flight testing &#8211; TCC 07\/21 &#8211; 08\/18 2012 &#8211; #2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012-300x152.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012-1024x522.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-large wp-image-293\" title=\"Summer 2012 Flight testing - TCC 07\/21 - 08\/18 2012 - #2\" src=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012-1024x522.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012-1024x522.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012-300x152.jpg 300w, https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012-500x254.jpg 500w, https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/tcc-summer-2012.jpg 1273w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1.jpg\"><img data-attachment-id=\"282\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=282\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"928,767\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"gps1-july-august\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1-300x247.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-282\" title=\"gps1-july-august\" src=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"928\" height=\"767\" srcset=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1.jpg 928w, https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1-300x247.jpg 300w, https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/gps1-july-august1-362x300.jpg 362w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 928px) 100vw, 928px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>See <a href=\"http:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/techpubs\/data\/TCC-072112\/\"> 07\/21 launch <\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/techpubs\/data\/TCC-081812\/\"> 08\/18 launch<\/a> data for more info.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing\"><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-280\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/realflightsystems.com\/wordpress\/?p=280&amp;share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\" ><span>Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Initial testing of the GPS-1 module for multiple flights has shown excellent performance.
