At the dunes in Glamis, I have seen RV's with large helium balloons flying a couple hundred feet above them on a string or rope so riders can find their RV from a long distance. Does anyone know the best setup for doing that with a re-usable balloon and helium tank? Thanks!
Not an answer to your specific question ... but here's my head-scratching response: If you have cellular service, can't you save your RV's exact location on your cell phone, carry your cell phone with you, and then have it guide you precisely back to your RV?
I think I can do this with our satellite-based Garmin navigator unit set to Pedestrian Mode ... so probably cell phones can do the same ... but maybe they require cellular tower access to do it - I'm not sure.
