Default Build your own PowerFLARM!

Darryl,

I downloaded the pdf and very carefully followed the assembly
instructions, then installed it in my ship, it looks great! It was
real quiet for a long flight I used it on, but that's to be expected
since there are no other units on other ships yet. Afterward I wanted
to download my flightlog to OLC but am having trouble extracting the
IGC file. Also got any tips on how to get it to work with an HP310
running SYM?

TIA,

Sorry you are having trouble Paul. Since these units are assembled by
the customer they do not include a factory warranty and it is hard to
guess what might be the problem. If you return the unit to me I will
get my service team to look at it straight away. Please enclose $200
with your return unit for inspection costs. Quote RMA #3AT-M3.

BTW I am also working on a UAT transceiver model for glider cockpits.
It consists of several hundred little paper cutouts of people and some
paper model meeting tables. And you can arrange and rearrange all the
little paper people around the meeting tables to show how UAT device
development works. (Oh I'm in trouble for that).
