    Yes. Any changes on the weather side have no effect on the ballistics side. And the ballistics side is always using station pressure and no adjustments are needed, no matter where you go.

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    The Kestrel has no sensor for elevation, it can only calculate it - see user guide. Holds are calculated using station pressure: To use your Kestrel to measure altitude changes (changes in station pressure associated with changes in elevation), you must enter a correct reference value for...

    Yes, updates do alter some settings so it is wise to always scan profiles and environment after update.

    Kestrel firmware 1.48 now available with new features

    Just an update. Typically Android apps did not go through a thorough review but apparently this has changed. Therefore until Google releases the new version of the app, you may not see features such as seeing the custom drag curve name being displayed. The new app version should be released...

    Kestrel firmware 1.48 now available with new features

    updating your profiles in the app using the library to select AB Custom will load the Custom Curve and the G1 and G7 data, save the profile and then download to the Kestrel, be sure to rename /delete / or overwrite or you will have dups of everything. Once you do that you can flip between...

    Is Hornady ELD-M BC wrong in Kestrel Applied Ballistics?

    Applied Ballistics tests the bullets and uses their findings to publish the BC they find. Remember to true your meter for best results.

    No, but cal MV will account for it. Tall ladder test is in testing now and that would allow the entry.

    Yes, only the Elite can true up 5 test shots and create a trajectory for subsonic distances. If you use ammo in the AB Custom Curve, you may not even need to true DSF once you get MV corrected, some do, some don't.

    Elite offers 30 gun storage in the Kestrel, Drop Scale Factor for subsonic truing, zero offset, but the big difference is access to the Applied Ballistic bullet library where you can download all the Custom Curve bullet profiles, they have radar tested for no fee and then give up estimating...

    2700 is good out to 875 yds. for $199. Next step up is $399 for the 5700. Drop them in the mud they keep on ticking, Phone, not so much. Both 2700 and 5700 have compass and wind meter so full environmental solution. Phone, you still need to acquire wind somehow.

    Kestrel 5700 w/ Hornady 4DOF

    That is up to the manufacturers, we look forward to adding LRF to the list.
