hobbes4star 0 #1 March 6, 2004 i have gone through 2 skytronics now. it seems that as the thing gets to 200 skydives it just kinda gives up the ghost. parasport has been really good they replace it only charging me postage. has anyone else had this problem??if fun were easy it wouldn't be worth having, right?

wingnut 0 #2 March 8, 2004 i've had a skytronic fz for the last 250 jumps andit has worked great for me...... well besides the fact that it's opening (fully inflated canopy) altitude number are always off... ______________________________________ "i have no reader's digest version" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cacophony 0 #3 March 19, 2004 I've had mine for about 450 jumps. I only changed the battery because it was 2 years old, but it was still going strong. I find that it is very accurate with my Alti 3 and I have also found mine to be very consistent. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gerryfuss 0 #4 March 19, 2004 My skytronic didn't work from the time I recieved it from a lovely ebay seller. Parasport fixed it for free (like yours) but have not actually tested it yet (Friiggin soon I hope!) but at least it turns on now.

Perhaps I should have called the manufacturer, but I bought a Pro-Track instead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
