    What sort of devices understand the information sent out of a Kestrel with Blue Tooth? And what do they do with that information?
     
    I believe the app Shooter on Android can receive the data and use it in calculations. Kestrel Bluetooth does not sync with iPhones unfortunately.

    Trimble Nomad running FFS. One of my shooting buddies runs a Vectronix PLRF 15C, Trimble Nomad, and Kestrel with weather vane. Both the Kestrel and the range finder talk with the FFS software on the Nomad. You range what your going to shoot at with the PLRF, and presto, you get a elevation and windage solution.
     
    They also connect to applied ballistics wind meters that can but put downrange so I've read. I don't think Bluetooth has an extended range though so I'm not sure how effective that would be.
