I've not got round to installing my DistoX board in the laser range finder yet and have been putting it off because I've heard that the compass is very sensitive to the presence of metal objects.
Being a mine explorer, we tend to be walking on rails all the time, passing iron spikes, air pipes etc... Has anyone on here used there DistoX in mines and with what results, the mines we go down, your surrounded by metal most of the time in the levels, easily within 30-40cm.
I did speak to Beat about it and he seemed to think it would be a big problem.
Would be grateful if any one could voice experiences?
