    Customers like the accuracy of the GPS. They mention it's a good device for navigation, the accuracy on a NAT track or NOPAC is amazing, and the track seems fairly accurate. The XGPS160 really improves the data accuracy from TrackAddict, and it'll improve accuracy for foreflight. The positional accuracy has always been great, and has relatively high altitude precision compared to other external GPS devices. The accuracy is 10Hz all of the time, and customers are getting excellent accurate.

    Simple setup, works great with racing telemetry apps, old mini-USB charging
    Super easy to setup. Charge it up, turn it on with the single button, find it on your device’s Bluetooth menu and pair it. Done! A nice feature is that Dual offers an app for your phone or tablet so you can verify that the device is actually connected and see the real-time GPS data.Once I paired this to my iPhone the TrackAddict app recognized that I was using an external GPS received and began using the signal from the XGPS160 instead of the internal iPhone GPS receiver. The 10Hz update rate on the XGPS160 provides far greater car tracking resolution than the 1Hz that a typical phone receiver provides.The unit comes with a rubberized surround that is supposed to be used on your dash to keep the unit in place, but for racing applications that’s not an ideal solution. I ended up using some 3M Dual Lock fastener tape on the bottom of the unit. It holds the unit in place securely in my car but also allows me to pop it out when not in use.The only slight negative item with this unit is that it uses a mini-USB connection for charging. This is a bit of an outdated connector. I wish they would update it to use a USB-C connection so I don’t have to keep track of a separate cable just for charging this one thing.Overall an easy solution for adding 10Hz GPS to your phone or tablet. Perfect for racing applications.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great little unit
    Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2023
    Bought the 160 back in 2015 and ever since it has been working almost flawlessly. I fly A320s and place it between the side window and the window opening handle, facing up. Only when I have reception issues I would move it close to the center pillar between the front windshields and once the connection is back I would put it back in it's usual place.
    Just recently (2023) I started having some issues with sat reception (not a single sat was being found) but after contacting support and doing their hard reset procedure (disc batt for 10min after removing the 4 rubber plugs and screws on the bottom of the unit) it worked again. I was surprised to see how well built and clean this unit looks on the inside. I hope to keep it using for another 8 yrs
