The Quick Verdict

Both of these are discontinued, which changes the calculation significantly. If you're finding the Mevo+ at closeout pricing — and you probably can, closer to $1,200–$1,500 now — it's a strong pick for most golfers. No subscription, E6 Connect included, and FlightScope's fusion tracking is genuinely capable. The SkyTrak+ at or near its $2,495 MSRP is harder to recommend when stock is limited and the platform requires a membership to actually play courses. If you find the SkyTrak+ at a deep discount and you're primarily using it for ball data accuracy indoors, that changes things. But as a general rule: get the Mevo+ if you can find it at closeout, and skip the SkyTrak+ unless the price has dropped substantially.


What They Have in Common

Both use hybrid tracking — radar plus camera — to measure ball data and club data without requiring special balls or face stickers. Both work indoors and outdoors. Both connect to E6 Connect and GSPro. Neither has a built-in screen, so you're running everything through a phone, tablet, or PC.


Where They Differ

Technology approach

The Mevo+ uses FlightScope's "Fusion Tracking," which combines 3D Doppler radar with a camera to fill gaps each technology has on its own. The SkyTrak+ takes a similar hybrid path — dual Doppler radar plus photometric cameras. In practice, both approaches are trying to solve the same problem: radar is better outdoors for full ball flight, cameras are better indoors for spin. The fusion approach on each device is designed to give you reliable spin data even when the ball isn't traveling far enough for radar to track it confidently.

I'd guess the camera component on the SkyTrak+ leans slightly harder on photometrics than the Mevo+ does — from what I've seen, SkyTrak's roots are camera-based and the radar was added later — but I don't work at either company, and both will tell you their system is best. What I can say factually: neither requires special balls, neither requires stickers, and both track club path and face angle.

What you're paying for (and what it actually costs)

The Mevo+'s $2,000 MSRP included E6 Connect with 12 courses and no ongoing subscription. GSPro compatibility adds more courses if you already have a GSPro license, but there's no FlightScope monthly fee sitting underneath any of it.

The SkyTrak+ at $2,495 MSRP requires a SkyTrak membership to access course play. SkyTrak's membership tiers have varied over time, but plan for $99–$200/year depending on which tier you need. Over three years, that's $300–$600 layered on top of the hardware cost.

Now factor in discontinued pricing. If you find the Mevo+ for $1,400 and the SkyTrak+ for $1,800, the Mevo+ is still the better deal once you account for the ongoing membership. At $1,400 Mevo+ vs $1,800 SkyTrak+ plus $150/year membership: the Mevo+ costs about $1,100 less over three years. That's not nothing.

Sim software and course access

E6 Connect ships with 12 courses on the Mevo+ at no extra cost. The SkyTrak+ also integrates with E6 Connect, but you need the SkyTrak membership to actually use it for course play. GSPro works with both, assuming you have a GSPro license — that's a one-time purchase around $250, so factor that in if you're going the GSPro route with either device.

Data depth

The SkyTrak+ has a slight edge in club data metrics — it explicitly tracks club path and face angle, which the Mevo+'s spec sheet lists more generally as part of its 20 data points. Both track the core ball data you'd actually use day-to-day: ball speed, launch angle, spin rate, carry distance. If you're a coach or a serious player who wants to dig into club delivery numbers, the SkyTrak+ edges ahead on paper. For most range sessions and casual sim play, both give you what you need.

Setup and space

Neither requires special balls or stickers. Both need to be positioned behind the ball. The Mevo+ has a published 3-hour battery life; the SkyTrak+ has no battery spec listed, which suggests it may need to be powered via USB-C during use — something to verify before you build your setup around it.


Who Should Buy Which

Get the Mevo+ if:

  • You find it at closeout pricing under $1,500. At that price, the value is hard to beat given what's included.
  • You don't want a subscription sitting under your hardware. The Mevo+ is genuinely buy-it-and-use-it.
  • You're splitting time between outdoor range sessions and indoor sim. The 3-hour battery and portable form factor make this work well in both settings.
  • You're already planning to buy a GSPro license and want the included E6 courses as a bonus rather than a necessity.

Get the SkyTrak+ if:

  • The price has dropped well below $2,000 at closeout and you're getting it for less than the Mevo+ you can find.
  • You care about club delivery data — club path, face angle — and want those metrics in a more purpose-built way.
  • You're building a dedicated indoor sim and want photometric-leaning accuracy for short iron and wedge spin, where camera-based systems tend to be most reliable.
  • The SkyTrak ecosystem is already part of your setup — if you have an existing SkyTrak membership from a previous device, adding the Plus isn't adding new cost.

The Bottom Line

Both products being discontinued means you're buying remaining stock, not a product with a future. That's not automatically bad — it just means you should buy at a price that reflects it. The Mevo+ has the cleaner value story: no subscription, solid software integration, 12 courses included, and a proven fusion tracking system. The SkyTrak+ asks for more money and more ongoing cost, which is a tough sell when stock is finite.

If the Mevo+ is available at a meaningful discount from its $2,000 MSRP, take it. If you're seeing the SkyTrak+ at a steep enough markdown — say, $1,400 or below — and you're drawn to its camera accuracy, it's worth a look. But as a default call on comparable inventory?

Common questions

Which is better, the FlightScope Mevo+ or the SkyTrak+?
Both products being discontinued means you're buying remaining stock, not a product with a future. That's not automatically bad — it just means you should buy at a price that reflects it. The Mevo+ has the cleaner value story: no subscription, solid software integration, 12 courses included, and a proven fusion tracking system.
Is the SkyTrak+ worth paying more than the FlightScope Mevo+?
The SkyTrak+ is $2,495 against $2,000 for the FlightScope Mevo+ — a $495 gap. The premium typically buys either better measurement accuracy or a richer data set; the spec table above shows exactly what each unit reports.
Is a consumer launch monitor accurate enough to practice with?
Units in this price range are useful for practice, tracking relative change, and home simulator use. They aren't PGA Tour-grade — pro-tier devices cost an order of magnitude more — but the best consumer launch monitors are consistent enough to trust over multiple sessions, which is what actually helps your game.
