Winpilot 4.50 !

[Administrateur]

Bonjour,

 

La version Winpilot4.50 est disponible : Managing and setting tasks has never been so easy !

 

L'update coute : 49 $, les mises a jour sont ensuite gratuites pendant 6 mois (fin decembre).

 

Site web : http://www.winpilot.com/

 

What's new:

 

On the ground, in the air, setting and managing tasks has never been so easy with the new "Task" page.

To use it, go to Menu.Edit, and select Task into one of the buttons, or click Menu.Edit.Reset.

This editor always operates on task 00 and has these functions:

 

1. Advancing or going back within a task

To use this function press a button on the left next to the name of task waypoint from which the task should be flown. Symbol' >>' shows the currently active waypoint.

 

2. Modifying waypoints of the task

In this mode it is possible to rapidly replace or add new user waypoints to the task.

Pressing a button brings up a keyboard, and the user can enter one of two things: waypoint ID (the first number describing a waypoint in the *.dat file), OR, first letters of the name of the waypoint. Please note that if multiple waypoints start with the entered text, WinPilot will select the first matching name. Note that this function ONLY searches names and IDs within the USER WAYPOINT FILE.

Using this editor it is also possible to quickly INSERT or DELETE waypoints.

To DELETE and existing waypoint from a task, press button with that waypoint's name, and enter 0 (zero).

To INSERT a waypoint before some other waypoint, press button with that waypoint's name, and enter * (star) and then either the new ID or NAME, for example *223, or *MINDEN.

Use * ONLY to INSERT a waypoint, to replace an existing waypoint just press this waypoint's button and enter the new ID or NAME.

Task distance is displayed at the top of the page (1094.9km in the example above). For AAT, this distance includes ROOTs of the Areas, which is useful to check the task distance with the official distance given at a meeting by the organizers. This distance is shortened by the radiuses of Start and Finish gates (in case they are cylindrical).

 

Bons vols,
