GeoLink enters constant fast blinking mode after flight exposure to ~34 degrees celsius temperature conditions. Sporadic improvement is noticeable when the ambient temperatures drop toward 29 degrees celsius.

Are there declared (possibly tested) safe operating parameters in respect of temperature for the GeoLink and Spirit units?

It should work well with 40°C too. Do you feel the module is hotter at the bottom?

I believe we can test it in hotter temperature within few days. Probably the issue is occurring during saving the logs. We will be testing it right now.

We can send you a special GeoLink firmware that could help to solve the issue as fast as possible.

Thank you for your considered response. I cannot test the bottom of the unit in the near future as the high temperature environment has passed, nonetheless, I await the release of revised firmware post testing.
