New firmware – Version 6

Firmware, News

Version 6

Go Online!

Version 6.0 is fully dedicated to Wi-fi connectivity, such as Weather integration, Task uploads/downloads and no more usage of SD/USB key for any kind of updates. Another important feature is supporting connectivity with 3rd parties, such as radios and transponders. For competition purposes we have done a lot of algorithm calculation improvements and most importantly, the AAT assistant with Isospeedlines based on complex calculating methods. The new version also has a small surprise for pilots. Terrain, Maps and airspaces are improved and more detailed and as usual, you can download them for FREE. There are also some user friendly improvements and minor bug fixes. Upgrade for free at firmware-request menu option.

More Detailed Maps and Terrain

Maps and Terrain are now improved and more detailed. There are some new, added elements so you will know your flight surrounding even better. New added elements like: glaciers, forests, fields, grass fields, streams, streets, railroads, airport runways etc. Updates are completely FREE of charge (new maps are preloaded since January 2013 – for older devices please contact us).
