New $500 Flightscope personal launch monitor (MERGED)

[dillardiv]

I just got a Mevo and after one range session, it seem to be having a hard time with shorter clubs. Numbers on longer irons and driver look about right, but it wasn't reading my full wedge swings properly. Was hitting a wedge 100ish (measured with my range finder) on a slightly downhill shot but the device was indicating only 70-80 and didn't pick up a lot of the shots. Anyone had advice?

[GreCra83]

I'm having the same issue too, clubs 9 to wedges just produce low carry yardages.

[dillardiv]

Disappointing because I was really looking to dial in some of my shots <100 yards.

I've been using the sc200 Swing Caddie and love it! the only downside is spin rates etc. might give this a shot.

Wow! Really? Am I reading this correctly? The company offers a product for sale and then suggests you need to take a trip to Las Vegas to learn how to use it. If a substantial number of users are experiencing problems or have similar questions, shouldn't the company make user information a great deal more readily available than having to take a trip out west?

No. There is a Pga event in Vegas targeted to the industry professionals. So many professionals can get a first hand look to the products (not only the Mevo) that Flightscope offers. Please open the link to the Facebook so you can see the info. Actually, they charging $200 for their seminar help weed the general public and concentrate on those who are actually interested in forking several $000s onto one of their upper products. I am sure if you buy one of those, the $200 will be refunded. And that is a common practice in that industry and many others.

could be any number of things relating to how you have it setup. mine works perfectly for these yardages and i use it to dial in my wedges in a variation of the cone drill.

 

I would recommended sending a data dump of your Mevo logs to Flightscope support using the built in feedback to support button the next time you are in the app along with an explanation of your issue. they can help you diagnose the problem.

This is helpful feedback! Do you have any tricks on your setup? Distance from ball, etc? I was using it on grass that day with 4 and 5 feet selected. Was going to try again today but it's raining so hard I can't see out my office window!

Thanks for the info. For anyone wondering, the discount takes off 5% so it covers shipping +/-. Still not quite ready to pull the trigger on this purchase yet but it does seem like the MEVO is getting better as time goes one.

[A.Princey]

I wonder if a metallic finger nail polish would do the trick on the ball, or testors paint? I think a small line about a 1/2" long and 1/8" thick would work as well or better than the stickers and would be cheap/easy. Also, this would only really be a winter, hitting into a net type purchase for me. So much easier to actually watch ball flight outdoors for real feedback. Spin is the premium quantification that I would want more than anything.

On grass it is important to make sure you adjust the Mevo's positioning every now and again to compensate for having to accommodate the divot of your previous swing(s). i measured the length of my alignment rod and set the mevo-to ball distance to that so i know how far it is each time. this makes it easy to move the Mevo while practicing and to keep the same distance.

For any Mevo owners (or Flightscope if you're still following this thread), I've just gotten my Mevo in the mail, excited to start using it. I have a question about using it with range mats: I understand it has to be on the same level as the ball, so using the Mevo box works to keep it level with the mat. I also noticed in the manual that it comes with a tripod mount for use with baseball. I have a small flexible tripod that I could get to about range mat height, but would it be necessary to tilt the tripod back so that the Mevo is sitting at the same angle as it would be if it was resting on the kickstand?

For those that have the Mevo....how well does wit work with the Android app for you? Or the iPad app? The Google Store reviews are less than stellar on how well it works.

I had zero issues with the Android app when I had a Mevo.

I tried my Android phone (Samsung) when I first got my Mevo - It worked, but was very slow & crashed a lot, usually in the middle of a session - I was on the point of returning the Mevo, but decided to buy a used iPhone - The difference was night & day & a year later it is still running perfectly

Flightscope themselves told me that the Mevo is designed to use iOS & it makes sense (to me) that Android is likely to be less stable as there are so many different Android phones rather than only a handful of iPhones - I obviously got a phone that wasn't that good with Mevo but yours might work fine (?)

Got a decent range session in the other day in between the soaking rain here in SoCal. Hit sand wedge (full and partial shots), 8 iron, and driver (testing two different shafts). I even sacrificed about 10 of my shag bag balls and metallic stickers while testing the driver to see the difference between non-dot range ball and dotted premium ball. It basically caught every shot I hit, with the exception of a couple 8 iron shots and a couple drivers that were non-dotted, where it would only get the launch, ball speed, and spin, but nothing else. It was my second time using the device, but the first time, I only spent a few minutes messing around, trying to see how easy it is to setup and get going. That first session was rough, it was only picking up about one every seven or eight shots. This second time around, I brought a tape measure and lined the unit up EXACTLY six feet away, and made sure to set the ball in the same spot every time (obviously this was easier to do with the driver, being on a mat w/ a rubber tee). The range I was at has decent range balls, and the spin rates and launch seemed to be about where it looked to my eye. The range is set up so that the targets are slightly downhill, so I'm not sure if Mevo was reading the carry yardages as if it was level ground, but with the SW and 8 iron, the carry distances were consistently about 4-6 yards short of where the yardage markers on the range indicated. I even double checked with my rangefinder a few times, hit 8 iron to a green w/ a flag that was 147 yards away, with a 150 sign right behind the green. I landed the ball what looked like pin high, about 25 feet right of the pin, and the Mevo said that I carried the ball 141 yards. The differences were consistent though, and I never had one that was more than 6 yards off, so I'm guessing the slight elevation change might be the reasoning.

 

There didn't seem to be a huge difference in spin rates between the non-dotted range balls and the dotted premium, though the range balls consistently spun and launched higher. I ended my session by hitting about 20 shots with my 58* to a target signed marked 35 yards. The Mevo was actually impressively accurate in this area, as it seemed it was never off by more than a yard on carry distance. Hopefully once the rain clears, I can take this out late one day to the 9 holer down the street and see if I can jump on a teebox, sticker a bunch of balls and do a test from tee to green with driver, 150, 100, and 50 yards out. So far though, for what I want it to do, I'm liking my purchase.

[MrShield]

I just bought a Mevo and have a very simple question.

 

 

How do I update the firware in my Mevo? I downloaded latest app for my iPhone. It connects to the Mevo, but there is no menu option under settings to update firmware?

 

 

I've spent about two hours searching the web, manuals, tutorials, but it's nowhere to be found!? I have seen screenshots in older versions where you can search for new firmware and force a write to the Mevo?

[MrShield]

Guess I found the answer earlier in this tread that it should upgrade itself automatically, but very strange that isn't documented anywere.

Could you clarify why the price of £399 increases to £490.77 when selecting UK, yet VAT is 20% in the UK. Quite a high additional cost for shipping as well, which makes the headline price a little bit misleading.
