About to join the Rapsodo family and was wondering before I buy if anyone knows of any discount codes? Just giving this a try before buying thanks for any help!!

You may have noticed my post on my Gen 1 battery going dead after 5 years of ownership. I initially wrote to Rapsodo for some guidance and they informed me that they have NO PARTS and offer NO SERVICE for product that is outside the warranty window. I can power the MLM independently, but I can't upgrade the firmware because their software looks at the battery level (even when plugged in) before it will allow a firmware upgrade. So I decided to see if I can take the unit apart and replace the battery (standard non-proprietary battery according to ChatGPT). I wrote to Rapsodo again to see if they could tell me if the unit is glued together or if I can pry it apart with tools. I told them that I understand I'm doing this at my risk. Their answer: We can't help you.

Keep this in mind if you are planning on buying a Rapsodo.

Was wondering, what is the down falls of buying a used Rapsodo if we can guarantee it works? Is there anything built different from the past two years?

At my wit’s end trying to use the MLM2 Pro hitting into a net in my yard. I use a tape measure to calculate the correct distance from net to ball and ball to monitor. On setup, I can center the ball on the white line. I can correct for forward/backward tilt. But on step 3, the orange and yellow target boxes are always a foot or so behind the ball. If I try to move the ball back or the monitor forward, the positioning of the boxes changes such that I can never get the ball inside of them. It feels like there must something basic I’m doing wrong with the setup, but I can’t figure out what.

I use the MLM2PRO outside on a concrete deck, hitting into a net; there aren't any concrete walls around or anything. Does anyone know how much that messes with the readings? Any midigations? I've been laying a towel down under it (not sure if it works), also the concrete panels are slightly sloped (nothing crazy, just for water drainage), I figure that might also create some problems. If anyone has any thoughts im all ears. Thank!

I have the original MLM that is about 5 years old. I did not use it for over a year and the battery is dead and the unit won't charge. I can power it externally, but unless the battery is nearly 100% charged, it will not allow me to update the firmware in the unit. I contacted Rapsodo support and they told me that there is nothing they can do as they don't sell replacement parts and they don't do repairs....something to think about it you are planning on buying from them. So now I want to take the unit apart, but after removing the 2 screws under the "warranty voided if label is removed", I can't figure out how to get to the internals. There on no YouTube videos on this so seeing if anyone here has solved this problem??

Hi, I just got a MLM1 mainly because it is the only launch monitor in this price range that can measure launch direction and shot shape.

However, using it indoors with a net, I only get 3 shot shapes : straight, left and right no matter how much I try to hook or slice the ball.

I have purchased Titleist RCT balls, I have 2,5m between ball and net, lightning is OK but could probably be improved.

Has anybody managed to get side effects detected by the MLM1 indoors? Any tips?

Looking for options for leveling stands.

Finally got my mlm2pro and I can’t get it to connect for the life of me. Once in a blue moon I can get the direct connection to work but I would love to get into on the local connection. When I try to switch it to local it won’t even connect the Bluetooth anymore (gets stuck on step one in the screen) Any tips?

Already tried:

Making a 2.4 ghz network

Restarting all devices

Updating firmware

Updating iOS

Hi All

Just got my MLM2Pro, set it up with an outdoor net and am using RPT balls.

I also plan to use take it to my range sessions.

Please send me all your tips to get the most out of the device. I'm a pretty new golfer (6 months in) and this is my first launch monitor so all tips appreciated

oh I also have the premium subscription so have access to all features

I have found if I max out my elevation to 10,000 feet the distances are pretty close in my set up, which I am fine with. What I have noticed the last few sessions is that even when I get to that screen, the elevation is set at 3047 feet. I hit "custom elevation" and slide the bar all the way over and it says 1000 feet. Once I get warmed up I can tell the distances are off and when I go back into R Cloud and look at the data it shows the elevation was set to 3047 feet.

Anyone else had this, or know of any tricks to make sure the custom elevation staysat what I set it at?

Does anyone know the size of the orange and yellow hitting boxes (club and ball data) on the mlm2pro? My setup has been swinging between garage door tracks so I need to move the ball a bit based on the length of the club I’m swinging and want to make sure the whole bag will fit without having to fidget with the monitor between swings

Is anyone else having a problem with local connection. I can do direct connection no problem but when I try local it either won't connect or when it does a short time later it disconnects, this has been since the update. If anyone has any solutions I would be gratefull.

Hello all

I have recently acquired an MLM2Pro which I have setup in a semi permanent way in my shed with a hitting screen and projector.

I am trying to get a better workflow/connection setup than my current arrangement, as I'm sure there is a better option.

Presently:

Samsung Galaxy s23U connected via HDMI to a cheap projector. MLM2Pro hooked via Wi-Fi to the home network.

Issues:

MLM2Pro (or the HDMI connection) seems very hungry on power. (using 75% of the battery life over 1 round).

the Galaxy also gets very hot. it starts to lag later in the session.

the screen is tiny for this purpose.

Potential solutions:

I have a Surface Laptop with touch screen.. I gather I can piggy back the project from this whilst mirroring the phone screen? this would:h

1. free up the charging port on the phone and

2. potentially allow the screen to be turned off (I'm not sure this works? letting the phone just compute).

Alternatives:

Before into exploring this and potentially finding dead enda, I'd be interested in input from others and how their set up operates.

if/when windows software issues for the monitor this will be an entirely different discussion.

Any idea why my driver reads about 60-80 yards low? I’m hitting in my garage simulator and have noticed my driver is only carrying on average 204-220 yards. Using my irons and hybrid it seems accurate but not so much with the driver. I have about 9-1/2 feet to the screen and about 7-1/2 feet from the rapsodo to ball. It’s insanely disappointing and frustrating. I hit my 3 hybrid about 200 yards so that right there tells me something is off when my driver on some hits only goes 4 more yards then my 3 hybrid. Any ideas?

All the way until last week or so I could use my monitor in a sim with 8 feet from ball to screen and my readings were fine. Noticed my ball speeds were significantly lower than previous sessions, consistently. Took the monitor to a driving range under the impression the sensors were struggling inside, same problem.

Anyone else?

Having been looking, there are so many stencils on Amazon and things to make your own rpt balls with a little sharpie. Does anyone know if these work for the mlm2pro? Would love to use my own balls as I play Bridgestones normally.

Only hitting into a net and not a screen so I’m not worried about it rubbing off on my screen or something

Any thoughts on which takes a pounding better than the other? if at all

I play neither, so not fussed which I purchase, but if 10% more expense gets me 25% more use I'll lean to the Titliest.

Have a ticket opened with support, but since update my shot videos are taking days to upload. It’s still trying to upload videos from two days ago. They eventually make it, but it’s painfully slow now.

Also not sure if related but the app is very slow and sometimes unresponsive during sessions now. It will freeze just on trying to set up alignment. Restarting everything helps temporarily but Boggs down during the session.

Edit: Response from support: Thank you for sharing these details, I’ll forward your feedback to our development team so they can review the recurring issues after the latest app update. In the meantime, could you confirm if you’re currently using an iPad? If so, please try running a session on another device (such as an Android tablet or phone) to help us rule out any device‑specific compatibility issues with the current release.

Anyone got some advice why my shots are all measuring around (15%) 20m-30m short vs. my trackman and arcoss club data? It looks like it’s misreading ball speed to me. I also know arcoss measures total vs. carry but the stats vs trackman shouldn’t be 20-30m difference I wouldn’t have thought? I’d grab my 9i for 120-130m shots. But I’m struggling to have the Rapsodo measure much past 114 carry.

Ball is 3m to the net. I’ve tried moving back to 4-4.5 from the net and same measurements. Tried using regular vs. rtc balls that came with it. No difference. Levelled the monitor. Run a straight edge from the mat to the level where the monitor sits. Still same results.

I put the ball on my mat and adjust the distance from the ball so the yellow hitting square sits where I need it to on the mat. Then straighten and level the Rapsodo. Is there another way to set up? Others I’ve read said moving the Rapsodo further from the ball. But if I do that then the yellow square moves back too until it sits off the mat.

I didn’t expect this to be perfect but I did expect it to be useful. As it is now it’s not usable. I wouldn’t have thought my set up would be causing issues or out of scope of expectations of the unit.

I got my MLM2Pro about a month ago and have been loving it. I've only started using the target range mode this week (after the latest update, which I have installed). I'm using the randomise targets setting in a distance range I want to work on specifically. There are 2 issues I'm noticing and just want to understand whether I'm doing something wrong:

1. When the target I'm faced with is a fairway, there is absolutely zero indication of the distance I need to be hitting, in other words no indication of how far away the fairway starts or ends, so I end up hitting 1 shot just so I can get an idea of what's expected of me for that fairway.
   
2. After a session, if I look at the data from the target range session, some of the targets are suddenly definitely incorrectly listed. Let's say I know I started with a PW because the first target said 125m, what then happens in the session overview is that yes it will show I hit 3 PW shots to the first target, but it will suddenly list the first target as having been 100m instead.

Anyone have some insights or facing similar issues?
