Use GPSSpeadreader and large files are a breeze

'Large' files are nothing. I have pretty much unlimited storage compared with the file sizes. I prefer the higher resolution of the data, and I definitely don't do all day sessions.

GPS-Speedreader processes them in a flash.

I just recall I did a day at LG earlier this year and the file was 18MB. My old laptop was not happy with it and hard to upload to KA72.

That's why you should use GPSSpeadreader.

I do almost exclusively use GPSSpeedreader. But if I do something that may be of interest to others I like to put it on KA72.

It looks like a website glitch to me. All the other links I checked did work. I assume it will be fixed when Julien notices and gets time to do it.

Or it may be that he has found a bug in earlier versions and is uploading a new corrected fw version.

What device are you trying to upgrade fw on? Mini or LCD? What fw version are you running now? What is the extra feature you wanted the upgrade for?

I have saved most FW versions. PM me with your email address and I can probably send you what you seek.


Thanks for the reply mate, I was trying to upgrade my LCD motion and finally was able to update the firmware. Had a slight issue after updating it as it defaulted back to displaying my speed in KM'S and couldn't be changed over to displaying speed in knots as the settings menu was no longer on my motion after updating but Mike George was able to help me out and changed the displayed speed for me.

Here is the link: www.revolutionise.com.au/windwanderers/shop/

I have a couple of spare minis in next order but won't be here in time for next weekends event. You can use a Garmin or other gps device for the NSW gps events, see below, results data only needs to be posted to KA72

Just as a follow up, I requested a refund today and was promptly given a proof of deposit of a refund. By far the quickest response ever from Julien.

Possibly easier for him to give the refund than deliver the goods? I'll hang in a little longer.

I thought you'd be onto the diy's by now Mike. My final straw was when FNWBilly said he was close to 3 yrs of waiting. I was only a relatively short 2 yrs, 3mths and 24days of seed capital funding. I hope he eventually gets it right for those who want to be part of the fantastic community of speed freaks.

FNQBilly received his original order in December 2019 and is waiting for an LCD black line replacement since August 2020. So it goes back to the whole year of covid and the whole year without a suitable replacement screen that prompted the creation of Minis.

Others may have received LCD replacements earlier but they proved unsuitable. And I can't go sending versions after versions without waiting for feedback and paying for each replacement and its shipping (100-140AUD). It should have happened by now but for another reason, the LCD queue is on hold for two more weeks.

I cleared Minis/LCDs to New-Zealand, New-Caledonia, Europe and Minis to Australia by year end. And I'm about halfway done with Australian LCDs.

I still do this in my free time. Never denied a refund. Never denied a replacement.

I don't know how many mini motion gps's there are in Australia now but it's must be over 200?, maybe more. What a great device, easy to use, compact, long battery life, the firmware is top notch with the updates done last year.

Some fantastic speed results are being recorded on them at lake George right now

I finished making 20 of them late last year. I love them on my booms, but reading one on your arm, is easier once in the water. The LCD motions are a great device, and worth waiting for.

I received one of the first LCD models in Australia and it's warranty replacement a couple of years latter. I also received 25 Minis which have been distributed amongst sailors in SE Qld. At least one Mini has been replaced under warranty. They are both great units and Julien stands by his product.

Please, I'm not having a huge crack at Julien
or his machines. Yes, I received I believe one of the original Motions that developed lines that rendered the screen unreadable. Yes, with full enthusiasm, Julien said that it would be replaced. I have no reason to believe that wouldn't be the case at some point. It was just a frustrated comment about the time frame it has so far taken. But, I'm probably not as frustrated as Julien is at not being able to commit to the resupply. Please, Julien, no offence was intended either to you or the Motions them selves.

I'm starting to lose hope. Last returned email was February '23 & silence since then.
