Default PowerFlarm offers new Version, PowerFlarm Fusion Includes Manynewstandard Features!

My guess is they chose to license it for exactly the reason you state: most pilot will have
varios, loggers, or flight computers already doing the IGC logging. By disabling the Flarm
IGC logging and charging less, they expect to get more people to buy their unit. That seems
like a good deal - "you only pay for what you need".


That's an odd form of capitalism.* Giving more than expected increases market share
historically.* Oh, wait!* There ain't no competition...


It's not a unique marketing technique: LXNav also uses licenses for the AHRS function in flight
computer, Air Avionics for functions in their iGlide software, ClearNav for their vario, etc.
