Default Oudie gear warning?

Got it Thx
Mine is checked for landing gear

Now what exactly will happen if I forget my gear during a landing? Will I see a message or hear a sound?

while I have not flown since this update, the previous posts by others seem to indicate that if I get to an altitude of 660feet in close proximity to my launch gps location, the oudie will announce or have a popup window something like "check landing gear"
I suppose this may or may not be the case, maybe it compares altitude and ground elevation? be interesting to see how it works!

Hey all - I just acquired an original Oudie and I have noticed a gear warning in the profile setup. Not mentioned in the manual and the previous 2 owners do not know about it. I have not noticed it trying to get my attention in the pattern either. I will ask Naviter next unless youze can fill me in.

I finally heard back from Naviter, they confirm it is visual only. Not worth the code! I don't think I will be making the Oudie part of my scan below pattern altitude.

Hmmm - that brings up an interesting situation. I am definitely getting an audio warning in addition to the banner warning on the Oudie.

I've got a Flarm - S8 - Oudie set up. Perhaps the audio warning is coming from the S8? I was pretty sure it was coming from the Oudie but if Naviter says not so??????

Weird because on mine, there is a chime i'm pretty sure and I think the lady says "Check Gear" along with the message on the screen...

Depending on how you have configured the S8, it can give all kinds of verbal warnings. Even without a gear sensing switch it will remind you to check gear 5 minutes after you're airborne.

Well the guy at Naviter did not seem on top if the issue...is anyone getting an aural without other gadgets involved?

It's been far too long since I've flown but I was surprised to start getting an aural "check gear" on downwind, even when landing out at a nearby field, and know that there's also an indication on the Oudie although I didn't really look at it.
