@jimcox?ÿ Now your talking their kit is awesome but I did find Dickies pants wear out slower, must be the polyester, but for more sustainable gear ca...

The knock off Lecia ones we got though a local battery firm where ok but not wired up the same somehow so they registered as flat even when fully char...

@bstrand?ÿ Tons of photos take up tons of storage though, sometimes a simple diagram can convey the same info better and is only kilobytes. I do stil...

@jimcox?ÿ I've been wondering that as it has a standard capacitive screen. Bit surprising no workible wet mode in software as seems a logical GNSS co...

Well I spoke too soon, turns out the engineers at Panasonic decided to score an own goal and the bluetooth range on the new fz-s1 to the robot is WORS...

@mightymoe Won't run a robot though (without that awkward additional module anyway).

@robertusa?ÿ That's just poor dealer support not poor software. Captive is every bit as good as access just all about which you are most familiar wit...

@learner?ÿ The biggest question though is who is your dealer and is their support good or not cause that is very nearly the most important thing.

I run a Zoom90 (a zoom95 with slower processor and smaller screen) with XPAD, Lecia performance at half cost, only reason to still buy Leica is you ar...

Setup well clear of the road (several positions of necessary) and do multiple reflectorless shots. May add hours to the job in heavy traffic waiting f...

Think this is excellent advice, robots are a fragile high precision piece of scientific instrumentation with lots of moving parts, that require carefu...

Trimble and Leica are top of the pile. I lean toward Leica as like robots better as no heavy active track prism, GNSS they see saw who is best and I p...

Try searching on here, have read other threads on Trimble vs Leica reflectorless, believe the Leica has a tighter beam.

@jaccen?ÿ Awesome summary, thanks for your time!

@jaccen Do you also have other GNSS from the bigger players that you can compare the Polaris/Emlid to? Curious if these super low cost receivers are...

Robot hardware pretty much identical, plus your probably looking at a zoom95 which is nearly the same but with bigger screen onboard and faster proces...
