Default Video from Day 1 of Region 4 North 2012

Thanks all for the thoughts. I think this is good stuff for people to see. Fun fun sport! Amazing!!!

For me its just a matter of learning what to expect and trying to get a bit more comfortable with lots of traffic. Rules of the road stuff.

On FLARM I am not sure I ever get the clock dial screen for some reason. But the threat on the screen was red and the Flarm was beeping at full volume. It was definitely what I would call a collision warning but maybe I am missing something. I know I have the latest software. But it is a portable and not a brick. Anyway, I thought I would clarify.

Best,

Sean

When you have NOT set "competion mode" (which is different from "stealth
mode") you'll get early warnings from FLARM: Beeps without the clock
dial. This is probably what you got. To my knowledge the volume is not
adjusted to the warning level, it is always constant.
