Mychron 4 GPS Expansion Box

Introduction

Often we think that GPS modules are useful in order to only design track maps. But in fact GPS can be used to gain much more information than just a standard accelerometer. From information relating to the chassis to behavior of the driver on the track.

Thanks to GPS you will be able therefore to visualize the circuit, your lines and the relative speed, and to even estimate your errors, exporting all these information in Google Earth. You will be able therefore to see your performances and lines imported over real track images!

This additional information will improve your ability not only to improve the chassis but also driving technique!

The GPS unit does not require any wheel speed sensors or trackside beacon for laptimes!

The GPS Unit plugs into the back of your Mychron 4 Basic Gauge or can be used besides the E-Box as well! GPS Unit does require Mychron 4 Basic gauge.

Information that you can visualize thanks to the GPS: * Position and trajectories * Speed * Angular velocity of distance * Longitudinal and lateral acceleration of distance * Times on the turn

*AIM currently recommends that you use an external 12v source for power or if used on a TaG kart that the power cables run to the battery. The GPS will run a full day on the M4 Basic battery but must be changed daily.
