Default Oudie (SYM) wind

I upgraded to 5.12 which apparently has LOTS of serious problems. I attempted to upgrade to 5.15 but Windows said the installer was "not a valid 32 bit application". Now I just want to downgrade to a stable release. Any ideas?

Matt

Copy the UpdateOudie.exe to the top level of the oudie.

Turn it off and back on click the box that comes up on the oudie to update to 5.15.003

I flew with 5.15.0003 PNA today with no problems

That's because you are trying to install the program onto your PC, not the Oudie. Copy the updater file to the top level directory of your Oudie then restart it.
The instructions for doing this are on the web site.

Will someone post when they've got an good version out? So the rest of us will be brave enough to click "update"?

Do not upgrade to 5.15.003. It's still full of bugs:

- QNH setting changes by itself
- Flight is restarted during flight
- No manual wind input
- ...

If you have 4.XX do nothing.
