    Does anyone else have problems losing their GPS signal when the TM batteries are running low?

    I was having a heck of a time with it yesterday and then about 20 minutes later I was out of juice. Thanks.

    They get goofy when your voltage is dropping that low. Common with any DC electronic.

    Is it losing signal or its ability to hold position. I have notiiced that when the battery is low, it will try to hold position, but then once it’s so far off location it just gives up.

    The Auto pilot will not work when voltage is too low. The motor will spin and turn but the GPS functions are the first to go.

    Losing signal, the signal indicator on the remote reads no bars.
