Try this video: ua-cam.com/video/Fr3E2jaeklk/v-deo.html I think this is what you are looking for. If you don't use LX , you can skip the first 2 minutes and get right to the SeeYou Cloud segement.

What you have described is the correct procedure. With power off to the 9000, insert the USB stick into the Flarm's USB port, then power on the 9000 which will relay power to the Core. The Core will boot up and find the USB stick with the new file. Wait about 5 minutes and it should be finished. I find it helpful to use a USB stick that has an LED so you can see the USB flashing while it is in use.

As I understand it, you should use only one at a time, not both offset and safety. If you use safety MC then final glide will always be calculated at the exact value to which safety MC is set, regardless of where you have MC set. So if your STF MC is set to 1 or 0 and Safety MC is set to 2, then your required final glide height will be based on 2. This is safer as it will require you to climb higher, but it is also slower if you are not climbing at 2 or better. I believe if you have Safety MC set to other than 0, then it takes precedence on all glide calculations. I don't think you can add an offset to the safety MC.

Glad to hear that you found it helpful!

You have the right idea about the vario priority function. I've typically seen it used in flapped gliders where the SC is connected to the flap drive and changes to thermal mode when you select climb flap. In this scenario, having the VP switch allows you to toggle into climb mode with flaps in neural, for example wen running under a cloud street you might want vario sounds and indication, but be flying too fast for your climb flap setting. It could also be helpful in the same scenario with automatic switching, so you can force climb mode while flying straight.

Glad to hear that you have found the video helpful!

This video was made with a customer's panel and I have not flown with a B50 so I can't compare, but I'm told they are very good varios. The difference with the S80 is that you get multiple screens such as task, turnpoint, airspace navigation as well as flarm targets on the screen and flarm collision warnings (when connected). In the S80, you also get a very good vario with netto and thermal assistant too. It will also act as a bridge to pass flarm info to another nav display such as Oudie or XC Soar via a wired or bluetooth connection.

Good tip - thanks Todd. That is a lot less work to copy and paste than to re-create every page!

I think I either read something in the manual or stumbled across it in the set-up recently, but off the top of my head I can't remember the details.

The white dot shows the strongest part of the thermal, so when it gets to the top (or 12 o'clock position) then the strongest part is in front of you. You need to move towards this strongest part, so as the white dot is moving to the 12 position, then you should reduce your bank/ level your wings to move in that direction. This means the glider symbol would be at the 3 or 9 o'clock position when you start to change your circle.

Thanks again - thats very helpful

The Flarm hub has a traffic monitor that can be displayed in a browser via the wifi. See timestamp 10:51 in this video: ua-cam.com/video/be47IjDV740/v-deo.html The problem is if you read the disclaimer at the top of that page that it gives no collision warnings and is not suggested for in flight use. If you use Naviter Navigator on your iphone, it is capable of displaying (or soon will be) of displaying flarm targets. Unfortunately, Apple products are not good for soaring but if you use and Android and install XC Soar that will give you flarm over the moving map and warnings.

The TIS license requirement is referring to the display unit, not to the Flarm unit, so you would need to check with Garmin.

The D-sub port is the #2 port on the Fusion and the RJ is the #1 port. In the configuration you want to set the NMEAOUT2 parameter to a value of 4. Flarm Config specification documents says: "Garmin TIS (binary data; no other sentences). TIS license may be required on some devices. Note: When selecting Garmin TIS, the baud rate must be set to 9600. " You set the Baud rate using the BAUD2 parameter and set it to a value of 1 (for 9600 rate). All of this should be accessible via the FlarmHub app.

The Safety MC and MC offset apply to ALL glide calculations so will affect waypoint, airport and task arrival altitudes.

Adam Woolley has suggested the parameters shown here: foxonecorp.com/images/hawk%20parameters.jpg Others like the wind variance a little higher at 0.07. I have not personally used Hawk, so don't have any better suggestions.

A great improvement over the USB/ TXT config for sure.

Great to hear that it helped get everything prepped for the season!

Unfortunately, the S series varios do not have the option to move the point within a turn area zone, so it will always navigate to the center of each zone. As best I can see there is no ETA available in task (or waypoint) mode. It is possible that these features can be added to the firmware in future releases.

Great to hear that you are finding the videos helpful! There is so much these instruments can do that learning it all is a life-long task : )

Let me know if there are any specific topics that you would like me cover in a future video.

@@foxonecorp Hi please can you do a video how to set different Battery values, I keep getting a low bat warning when using LIPO batteries. Many thanks

Hi George, Good idea, I can work on that.

Nicely done man. Thank you for showing this. Would this work for the 8030/8040 as well? Does it display maps like this?

Absolutely - this will work on the 8040/30 systems as well. They all have the same software, just a different size "box".

Hi Trevor, Glad that you found it helpful. For the check overload, it sounds like something is wrong in the weight and balance menu, or in the MC/BAL short menu. Have you set up the weight and balance? Did you leave the ref weight as it was in the glider polar?

@@foxonecorp Many thanks Dave. I haven't had a chance to look at you suggestions yet due to covid lockdown being applied to my area. Hope to get back in action soon and let you know

Great to hear that you found the video helpful : )

For profiles there are two things to try. 1. The default profile can be modified, but none of the changes are saved after powering off. You need to make your own profile and then changes will be saved. 2. Profiles can be "locked". If the profile is locked then you can make changes and they will stay as long as the vario is powered, but again as soon as it is powered off any change to a locked profile is lost.

@@foxonecorp Thanks for the reply; I didn't know this, so very helpful.

I think I mention something about that in the video. The sector is always 2 x the angle. The angle entered in the dialogue is between the leg bisector and one side of the zone, thus the 2x factor. This is the same as SeeYou, not sure why it was developed this way, but that's what we have!

I have a Flarm video in the queue and will get it posted in the next week or two. You can also check out the Flarm Fusion playlist here: ua-cam.com/play/PLeAW0PUi2pqL0GSdeIJDBcgVv6Qmrfjks.html and one for the LX9000/Flarm connection here where the process is similar to the S80/Flarm connection: ua-cam.com/video/hxE5MuWLCkI/v-deo.html

That depends upon which continent you fly! For North America most people use John Leibacher's Worldwide turnpoint exchange" soaringweb.org/TP/ For other continents, Naviter's Soaring Spot where the files are associated with a specific competition: www.soaringspot.com/en_gb/ Otherwise, the local guru at your club can direct you to files for your site.
