We’ll walk you through adding a GPS module to your existing Heltec V3 Lora ESP32 Meshtastic Node. This guide will work also for any ESP32 boards but slight changes might be required.

Why is this getting downvoted? Is there some kind of meshtastic hater community I haven’t heard about?

I think IRS probably because this community is specifically about technology news, and not just guides. Unless its not, I’m not the mods lol.

I’d expect because OP just shotgunned a bunch of meshtastic posts, to the point where peoples feeds are starting to look spammy.

Personally I just saw 3 posts from them at once, and see even more as I scroll. The deluge is off putting.

Oh, now I see it. Not cool,@adrelien@lemmy.radio

This is not a good way to promote the Meshtastic community.

I don’t get why having your own radio mesh when you can use existing ones with encrypted connections and not spend in hardware or having to carry stuff with you like in the 90s cellphones.

Maybe I misunderstood you, but how can you use existing ones without carrying a node?

By software . Example, Tailscale.
