OK, I flew the Sinus today.* I could find no way to configure the

the wind at altitude.* I determined that by flying upwind/downwind
and taking half the difference between ground speeds as the the wind
speed.* It's clear that the internal GPS in my Streak works but
there doesn't seem to be a way to make it display calculated wind.



I wish one of the developers would just tell us how to do it.* I
can't find anything in the manual, either.



Frustrated...

with pre 6.8 I simply unselected the "use external wind" whenever I wanted the set the wind manually. It worked well. I am hoping there is a way to achieve the same in 6.8 - having the ability to easily switch between external to manual wind. Without this I am better off with 6.7.

David, thanks for clarifying.
Dan, you can try your luck by posting to the xcsoar forum (link provided earlier in this thread). You may get an answer or you may get burned ;-)
