[QUOTE="hippyhunter, post: 578131, member: 11389"] I tried doing a calibration. It maybee seemed to help a bit. It pointed generally to the waypoint from about 200m away. As i got to more around 50m away it started pointing me in the wrong direction, but still counted down in distance of i moved closer to the waypoint and upwards if i followed the arrow from the 50m distance. When i was calibrating could only trot off about a 20 metre figure 8 within 30 seconds without actually jogging. Anyway, i will give it a test next time i go bush but will have the phone and app handy in case of it doesnt do the job. I still get the feeling its not performing optimally going on your observations DD, but could also be my expectations are too high. I do like the idea of them if they work as expected. Might even look into a bushnell one once stock is available again and have given this one a shot in the bush. [/QUOTE]
