Thoughts on best MP tracker ?

[Jackrabbitslim]

Would just like some views on best defence for tracking my MP.
I have been looking to purchase the loc8tor
But thought I would get some of your thoughts first.
I recently had my spark go down and I managed to find it in trees after an hour and a half searching.
Dread to think of losing my mavic.

Thanks in advance [emoji106]

The Trackimo and Marco Polo are commonly used trackers. The Marco Polo is a nice option for the Mavic due to its smaller size.

I'm often out on the hills in Scotland and most times I do not have a signal on my phone.
Am I right to presume these devices are dependent on this?

The Marco Polo tracks via a radio signal. It would be a good option when flying in locations with poor/no cell service.

Not so easy to get hold of in uk, and an expensive bit of kit.
I always keep the MP within line of sight so the loc8tor looks more within my budget and may just do the job.
Thanks for the help

I'm hoping this meets it's promises

I couldn't get hold of the Marco Polo in the UK so bought the Trackimo. It appears to work well, is accurate and battery life is good.
