Thread hijacking: Does anyone have experience with the CNv in wave? What settings do you use? What screen?


I have used my CNvXC in wave and I set it exactly as I do for thermal
soaring. It's my Streak/XCSoar that gets set up differently. On the
Streak, I zoom in way in, maybe 2 mile or less range and then I can see
the line of best lift and navigate quickly to it following an upwind
reversal turn. As altitude increases the leg length also (generally)
increases.

Wave will be upon us soon!
