What do you want to know about GPS for parrots?
Added 2020-10-24 02:37:04 +0000 UTCAs you guys know, we did a collaboration with Marshall Radio World last month and I want to know what YOU want to know about GPS and Telemetry used on freeflighted parrots.
What questions and concerns do you have most about the devices?
I'm gathering info from people all over so I can better direct the direction of our videos to answer everyone's most common concerns. Thanks for any input!! xo

Since they're pretty expensive - do they offer insurance on replacement if the device gets damaged by the bird or in flight somehow?

2020-10-26 20:05:14 +0000 UTCNo one asked, what’s the price range for them. I’d like to put a gps on my severe macaw since she thinks 20’ is not enough range. And, free flying in the house with 2 dog obstacles isn’t her thing. ( She is pretty opinionated, when she has something to say)

2020-10-24 16:27:02 +0000 UTCDo they affect a birds flight? how likely are they to fall off during a gist of wind or if the weather suddenly turns bad? How waterproof are they if at all??

2020-10-24 09:05:46 +0000 UTCDo birds ever try to preen them off? How long does the battery last? What sort of range do they have? How accurate are they for locating birds?

2020-10-24 05:50:27 +0000 UTCWill there be a video demoing how to put it on? In a free flight vid, Dave toweled a macaw to put it on. Is that a go to way or should it be more training style/desensitize to something on the tail? Also, I’m kinda surprised that dekta got the gps when lily is more trainable? Demo for suns and bigger birds?
