The MicroBeacon is intended to help you find your model rocket in tall grass, weeds or similar obstructions. The MicroBeacon is not loud if it were, it would have to be bigger and heavier. However, because of the warbling tone it generates, it's easy to hear under most conditions. Ever notice how far away you can hear a cell phone ring? Same principle! The flashing red LED on the MicroBeacon is part of the circuit that produces the warbling sound, but can also be useful for finding the model in the dark. Very easy to use! Snap in the battery, and put a wrap of tape around it to secure it. Loop the Kevlar® lanyard through your nose cone eye screw, or tie it to your shock cord, and tuck the MicroBeacon into your rocket on top of the chute. The MicroBeacon is guaranteed for life, unless it has been stepped on or otherwise abused. Made in the USA |
