Question about Atlon radar chrono

[bchannell]

While shooting a session does each shot show up in the app as you shoot or do you have to wait and end the session to see shots in the app?

When I shoot from my garage with the Garmin it is hard to see the display. If the Athlon app records each shot as you're shooting then I could use my phone as the display.

I really do think we're getting piecemeal technology here. The first maker to market a radar with no display that uses your phone to control it and display results will make both of these radars obsolete. Manufacturers need to be mindful that we all are already carrying a phone wherever we go.

They do not show up in the app in real time, in my experience.

Hi Bob,

I’ve been getting great results using the original FX Radar with this little stand.

The stand is from a $30 AliExpress digital level (with lasers, lol) - I also recommend for scope leveling. Its threaded for one of the two standard photo tripod mounts - the smaller one.

I got a 3D printed replacement bottom for the FX Chrono on eBay - $15.

The little stand tilts - so you can quickly adjust to height pellet is flying.

As you know, the FX Radar app displays on your phone - you can even configure to say the velocity readings out loud.

Before I got this little stand (by accident - it was a throw in with the digital level), I hardly ever used my FX Chrono - as positioning was a bitch.

Since I tried it on this little plastic $3 stand, it rarely misses a shot. I use it all the time now - with PowerOwl rechargeable batteries.

It was dumb luck finding this little stand that works so well, but thought I’d share so that others can benefit. Stand base also fits perfectly on top of a pellet can, if you need to raise the height.

I just found this on AliExpress: $30 | New laser level goniometer, casting instrument, measuring tool, protractor, digital inclinometer, construction tool, angle ruler
