Can’t always put down Recon Spawn Radio

battlefield-3

When trying to place down my spawn radio it doesn't always work, it will beep but not place it on the ground.

Are there certain conditions that need to be met to place the spawn radio?

A lot of the placeable equipment in battlefield 3 is kind of picky about where you can place it. In general you need a flat section of ground without any random debris on it. I've also found that it's much, much harder to place things if you're prone. The color of the the item should change as well when it's in a placeable area. If it's not placeable it will appear with a dark red tint, when it's placeable it will become kind of yellowish.

Also, sometimes it's just a little glitchy.
