As implemented in the latest version the maximum value of Max Altitude is limited to 15,000ft which is not useful in SW USA. *It should be obvious to anyone that the limit should be setable at least as high as 18,000ft. *In fact there is no reason for any hard limit at all as the pilot may fly in a wave window. Anyone using GNII at R9 Parowan should be sure to turn off this warning. *Not only is the warning useless it takes up screen area and prevents access to the normal user interface until the glider descends below 15,000 ft. I nearly threw the damn thing out of the window while flying above 15,000 ft at Springerville, AZ last weekend. Perhaps if enough users complain about this there just might be a new release with a fix. *I tried hard to get it changed several years ago but was ignored. Andy Hi Andy, I take it your fairly new to the GNll?, I've been racing with GNll for years and I never use that function, as you said no reason to and really no problem, just turn it off. I’m sure you know this already, but a friendly reminder at Parowan or any SSA contest, per the rules, 17,499 is your height limit. We always seem to have a 1/2 dozen or so disgruntled pilots learn this one during the first few days of Parowan each year, myself included. See you in a couple of weeks at R-9, (pray for good weather) 21 |
