Nice video David. I've tested out my skytrak against GC Hawk and GC2 and it's within 1 or 2 percent in all metrics in probably 85-90 percent of the shots. If skytrak gets two clear pics of the ball it's as accurate as any of the high end monitors. On another 7-10 percent of the shots I get slight misreads in some areas like horizontal launch or spin but still passable. And on 1-2 percent of shots I get awful and very obvious misreads that you can quickly discount and move on from (such as 10000 backspin on a driver). It's a great unit overall. I noticed you noted things like the laser dot for ball placement as a positive in ease of setup when many point to it as a negative because the small range of where it can be placed. You could turn that into an unlearn poster.

Hey David, quick question. I noticed on some videos you played outside, I assume on your verandah? What net do you use? And is it easy to put up / take down? My landlord just put an auto opener in the garage and now my swing space is tiny so I'm now looking at a daily put up and take down in the backyard instead. I'll be getting a SkyTrak, so simulator set up time will be negligible from what I understand, but the net could be a problem..... Cheers.

In my setup, (same for MLM2PRO or R10) unit to ball is 6.5 feet and ball to screen/net is 8 feet. Both LMs seems to work consistently with that setup and the clubs that I can use (5W max - the 3W and D hit the garage door opener). The only limitation is that on the MLM2PRO impact view, if set the ball back any closer to the unit, I may not see see the very bottom of the club.

So many great LM's on the market, as you have said on your vids before, ppl need to work out what they want out of a launch monitor, weight up the pro's & cons of each unit & go from there.. Here in Australia i feel like they are gathering momentum, no where as big as in the usa, but as the tech improves & they become cheaper i feel like more & more ppl will get them.. Also what is it with basements/garages in the usa, i feel like most vids ive watched they are all unfinished (no plaster on walls ect) is that like an extra option from original builds?

I love my Skytrak. I'm sure the MLM2 is close to the Skytrak's numbers (as tech has improved since the Skytrak came out) but until the MLM2 has GS Pro support (even if it's unoffiical) it will still be lacking in the 'home simulator' side of things... it all comes down to what people want... Once you've had GS Pro, it's hard to go back. Having said that. With the MLM2 coming out for $1000, Skytrak needs to come down in price a bit... $2000 is a fairer price.

Given that you can find these for under $2k on the used market, it's hard to argue with. True camera based unit for about the same price as a Mevo+. Rapsodo actually wrote the tech behind Skytrak as well (AFAIK). Which makes one think, why does the MLM2 need a special ball if they already know how to handle a ball with no special markings. Figure it's either the cameras aren't nearly as sophisticated in the MLM2. Or they're just taking advantage of the additional sales from the RPT balls. Or both.

Skytrak is designed as an indoor LM, if you want outdoor use, rapso, garmin or mevo is the way to go.

@@lewis6620 skytrak on a patio or pool deck would be vastly superior due to being able to place it next to the ball. It works outside, I’m just asking David to take out his spornia net and try it. I know we all love the possibilities of the mlm but skytrak is the better product and on eBay they go for ~1200 which makes it really interesting compared to $700 for an mlm we don’t get today

Been using skytrak for the last 3 years, always is 3-4 mph more ball speed than gc quad, also misses a stack of shots and some of the reads you get just gives me no trust in it, so buying a rapsodo mlm 2pro at £1400 less

Overrated IMO at least. I had one for a little over a year. When it worked, it was just OK. But it didn't work more than it did. Network capabilities were dismal. You would hit a couple dozen shots and then it would just stop. You'd have to completely recycle the thing and reconnect to get it going again. And it wasn't the network - I checked the traffic at that spot and any other tested device worked without a hitch. Absolutely the worst support experience ever. No real assistance at all. Maybe this next generation model will be better or I got some half assed Covid era build where they just passed everything through QA and had no interest in resolving issues given the units were flying off the shelf. Sold it, went with a Garmin R10 and haven't looked back.
