everclear1984 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Hi all, is anyone using the Garmin 310XT for speed runs? I read a post on the Traxxas forum that it can be updated to give max speed readings but that's the only mention of it I can find. I'd like to know to refresh rate, and whether it's actually worth using. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunja99 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I don't; know the answer but have one lying around considering using. I'm sure if you track an "activity" it will store the max speed, but the refresh rate as you say will be important. think the lowest it goes is 1 or 2 seconds. I will charge mine up later and look for you, as interested myself!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Trackstar also had a low refresh rate as standard but could be tweaked via the software 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss placed it for months got so mad, bought a 945, and what happened... the 310 turned up a week later... £30 second hand CBA to sell it, so use it on the car Will try it out next time out with the car, but they do give me max speed running or biking so...

everclear1984 Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 Sounds promising 🙂 I picked one up with a cracked screen for £15 posted, perfect for my needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunja99 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Grrrr, plugged it in last night to charge it up for playing with in next day or so... About 3AM (and considering the heat, thunder, lightening and down pours) it beeps with vibrate every 5-10 seconds... It's boot looping, on/off, on/off. Trying to hold every combination of buttons for 10 minutes, eventually drag meself downstairs to hide in the bottom of the washing basket. No sleep is had... Think probably ran out of charge eventually, I hope... Was quiet when got up for work anyways! Will try again later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
