I am new to ClearNav2. I have planned and flown two FAI tasks using the ClearNav2. ClearNav gave me a start time and changed from the start to first way point and then to the second way point, and then to the finish but no finish was acknowledged. I had the same task in my Nano and my Oudie, both recorded a completed task and the Oudie gave me a "task finished" announcement. This sequence applies to both flights. When the flights were analyzed on SeeYou, the files from the Nano and Oudie produced task completed analysis while the files from the ClearNav in one case said no valid start and in the other only the start was acknowledged. Does ClearNavII give a task completed statement like the Oudie? This is very frustrating. Please help me figure out what I am doing wrong. I would be happy to email the flight files to anyone who is interested and could help.Thanks ,

One mystery solved another found. It seems as though my ClearNav2 has suddenly started randomly recording high levels of engine noise, sometimes even when it is sitting on the ground. SeeYou gave me credit for an engine run in the middle of the flight thus changing the soaring start time to well after the task start time. Anyone experience similar behavior from their ClearNav2? Any explanation other than the usual vent noise, etc? Nano near ClearNav did not record any significant noise. Another good reason to restore the utility allowing downloads from Cambridge 302 through ClearNav.


No, it's not supposed to do that. In the worst case, it's a hardware fault that will have to be corrected.

I answered the initial query here because it seemed like something that might have been of more general interest. I should have made clear that we typically do online customer support here https://clearnav.net/forum/index.php
