    Zenmuse H3-2D removal/disconnect

    The zenmuse has the socket at the top this pops out and the plate can be pushed backwards to remove 2 screws. It the same as when it pops a bung when you hit something ie a tree (yes I did it) it comes apart. Remember which way the socket goes back in.

    Do you guys use tracking devices or loud noise makers?

    I have the Loc8tor stuck on the top of the battery door, The beep isn't very loud but tracking on the credit card size led reader seem ok. Spoke with Loc8tor as it states 150M ground but further if it decides to land higher. £50 from Maplins
