    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I think getting dof right is key for the unit to be fast and accurate. +\- 10 degrees is still more accurate than an armband and allows you to use jump and spin drift. If you are shooting on a square range, no big deal, shooing 180 degree range really big deal, hunting at night with...

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    Ranging performance test, I will say it's much easier to range with more power. Seemed to be better results than a Newcon 3500BT even though it has a better laser due to the power. The PLRF had a ranging advantage as it will feed you three ranges but no dope obviously. Set up an 8” circle...

    Shawn, As I've never used a Wilcox MRF, reading the manual, wind streaming is supported and "stream ballistics" directly from a Kestrel, too. Are you saying that the manual is wrong?

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I might be but I have more than a few match wins under my belt and sent my 10k based on the feature working as listed. If it was posted, it does not pull wind from a kestrel or update crosswind value based on DOF, I would not be disappointed. I don't want people dropping 10K for advertised...

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I will be testing targets for you all when I can move... My back is locked up currently, so it's on hold. My plan is to see if I can hit MOA steel set 25 feet in front of a berm in 200-yard increments. I might make a yote target with a fur blanket and see how it does with it too. Of note, a...

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I going to sleep on it over the weekend, but I think this unit is going back. To make the dope useful, you would need to turn off the aerodynamic jump and spindrift. Then calculate the angle changes on the fly. If shooting a .308 @ 700 yards in a 15MPH wind, at best, it would result in a .2...

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I did receive confirmation from Envision that the beam is, in fact, elliptical and taller than it is wide. Wind cannot be pulled from a Kestrel, and wind input is based on DOF. So a 5MPH wind is always "from the right, regardless of where the rifle is pointed. This is functioning as...

    Something the vendor said worked earlier in this thread and one of the key reasons I purchased it

    Do you expect it to feed the range data to the Clip?

    Yes, the Mil version has an IR pointer and flood. It's in the manual.

    If anyone wants to know the level of support you will get after buying a 10k MARS from Envision-Tek. It's nonexistent, after three days they can't even acknowledge an email about the basic functionality of the unit.

    Without it, the whole system seems pointless, I'd rather have it feed range to the Kestrel and be a remote display. Or at least have the option

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I've never used one. I know the Kestrel will do it with a handheld laser, although a little funky in how it calculates it.

    Newest update, I've been unable to get the unit to update the wind based on DOF. I get the same hold regardless of DOF.

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I got my unit today, and it does not pull wind information from a Kestrel, and I don't see where it says it does in the manual. So far, the unit can pull only the essential environment data from the Kestrel (which it can do via internal sensors) and upload guns. Maybe I'm missing something...

    The manual does show a rectangle beam. Preston is looking into it as well.

    MARS-Lc Review & Order Link

    I just got mine; I need to get some time behind it. *Disregard the last remark, as the beam does seem to be around 1mil. I must have been shaking or something on the first test. I will test some more and let you all know. Interestingly enough, the unit seems unable to pull wind in from a...

    I reject this reality and would like mine hand-delivered on or before 1 AM on the 1st.

    Spotters Bushy LMSS2 no more?

    I just got a new LMSS2 off the website yesterday.

    Anyone using the older Vectronix PLRF-10 or 15?

    Use a 15C, one of the best RF made. Just no support if it goes south. Down Range Systems makes at BT adaptor is you want to link to a Kestrel.
