It's a phased array (PESA) antenna... It is electronically "aim-able" very similar in practice to the radar dish that sat in the nose of the fighters I flew... at Mach 2+. So yeah, your SUV at 30mph on a dirt road is no issue. Being in a canyon with walls on either side is more of a restriction than your speed. And remember, the Starlink satellites you are connecting to are moving around 17K mph - so your speed, even on a freeway, is negligible. The dish syncs and switches satellites seamlessly. Up until now, I hadn't considered putting Starlink on the RV... because I didn't want to penetrate the roof... but I'm going to have to look closer at this mount and reconsider.

@SuperRede4u 2 месяца назад

I guess that the long and short of it is that it's no different than Sat Nav or Sirius radio. If they work then there's no reason that Starlink won't barring a geo lock that would stop it.

I had this issue with my truck for 2 years trying to figure out how to mount it. Then i realized it should be able to go through my freaking fiber glass camper shell like it does through a radome. Saw someone has tried it out and it works. I am going to give it a shot next. I am not sure what RV roofs are made of but maybe its fiberglass?

This video has a wonderful "hold my beer"-vibe and I'm here for it!

@jtderby 2 месяца назад

That's a lot of trust in the window seals of that glass panel at highway speeds. I'd be more worried about the glass popping out before the suction cups giving up with all the aerodynamics at speed. I think I'd feel more comfortable with the magnetic mounts to the roof.

Or mounted on suitable cross bars on the factory side rails.

Seems like a good improvement from your first field test on V One Starlink which failed to work a few miles from your home years back. but with 6k satellites in the sky, one would hope it would too. Several Sail boat on youTube have done the same crossing the Pacific ocean for about 1500 miles too.

Cerro Gordo?

@OLDMANDOM42.Dominic 2 месяца назад

NICE!! But you didn't mention if you enabled roaming/mobile on your Starlink account or not... ? It was to my understanding this would need to be done to move from a stationary setup.

I can attest that those suction cups are impressively powerful!

Would it work if you mounted it inside on the sunroof? Assuming you could flip the cups so it still pointed toward the sky properly?

@papirex4903 2 месяца назад

Isn't the Starlink service locked to a specific geographical area. Did they change that?

@KonorSacks Месяц назад

The answer is Yes. You would be surprised how well it works and says connected in some harsh conditions, I even know people who have them mounted on helicopters

Hey, wait a minute, I recognise that background and Keeler looking area :) So Brent took you up on your offer, nice.

@malianobrega5664 20 дней назад

What did you do about running the cable through the back window and having the window open the entire trip? Did you seal it off for weather issues? Please show more detail about that element.

@Bewefau Месяц назад

I have a question about buying those dish's too. Lets say you do buy a dish for home internet, but lets say you want to travel so you buy a new dish for your car. If you want to use it on the road do you have too pay for 2 different connections ?

@rhoderzau Месяц назад

Were you testing on a mobile priority plan or just hoping Starling won't disconnect for using it at speed?

@CrosstalkSolutions 2 месяца назад

Standard mobile regional plan. $150/mo.

@Hurricane-John 2 месяца назад

@@CrosstalkSolutionsdont you need in motion activated for it to work? My understanding is it shuts off at any speed over 10Mph

@LoyalK9Utah 7 дней назад

what starlink plan are you using? I was told after October 2023 that the $150 mobile roam plan would turn off after 10MPH or faster. You would have to purchase the $ 250-a-month roam plan... I am curious about which plan you used

This seems like a cool idea. Expensive but cool, I'd be worried about people stealing it in southern CA.

@lthemanl 2 месяца назад

I'm assuming you didn't run into issues powering the unit, correct? I know the Sequoia has a 120v/400w outlet in the back, but you only get the full 400w when in park or neutral. When in drive, the wattage is reduced. Had a hard time finding out what it is exactly reduced to, but my 4Runner goes down to 100w. And I know some devices/appliances don't like it when your flipping back and forth between those two power outputs. No issues to report?

@CrosstalkSolutions 2 месяца назад

No power issues at all.

@bravolatavera3647 Месяц назад

@mrxmry3264 2 месяца назад

could you flip the whole thing around and mount it to the INSIDE of that glass roof? if that works, it looks like a better option to me.

@bigusdallastexamas5740 2 месяца назад

Is starlink letting the fixed location plan work as mobil or did you change the plan to specifically authorize the mobil service?

@dabigmack2 2 месяца назад

in his first 3rd gen vid he said he selected the mobile plan

@guidoabade Месяц назад

@@dabigmack2 to me is not that clear. One thing is mobile plan which allows you to use it pretty much everywhere but stationary. There's a mobility plan that allows you to use it in motion. They say they are using it with the mobile one, but to me, it's matter of time that platform will identify it and block usage.. maybe im wrong here.

Not too surprising. Last week's SpaceX Starship live stream used Starlink while travelling 17,000 miles per hour. 🤣

@matthewwiemken7293 Месяц назад

Starlink works in orbit at 17,000mph so should be fine at 60mph on a road lol:)

I thought the Starlink service was locked to a specific geographical area. Did they change that?

@mobiltec 2 месяца назад

Ya that's my question too.

@bigusdallastexamas5740 2 месяца назад

Fixed location is $120 USD a month. Roaming is $150 as of this post. With the roaming service you can easily start and stop service anytime you like, so if you only use your RV in the summer time, you could quickly shut down service in the off months. He may well be using fixed service and they're allowing it to work anyway, but I certainly wouldn't depend on that if you really needed the connection.

@mobiltec 2 месяца назад

I have the RV service already. I know all about it. But I didn't know I could be MOVING with it on and working. They usually charge more for that service.@@bigusdallastexamas5740

- frame: $275 - suction cups: $200 It's mind-boggling that a plastic frame with 4 suction cups are priced nearly at the cost of the Starlink kit, which has a lot of hardcore electronics.
