The Starlink RV service from SpaceX is a new offering for digital nomads and off-grid adventurers alike to help them maintain connectivity from virtually anywhere their travels take them. The service, which was first launched earlier this year, has been updated with the new Flat High Performance Starlink option to let users connect when in motion. This is achieved with a flatter dish that gets affixed onto the vehicle using the included wedge mount.
The Starlink RV service with the Flat High Performance kit is priced at $2,500 and is priced at $135 per month with the option to pause or activate the service according to needs. The service and hardware are available for order now in select markets.
