Selectable units of altitude (meters or feet), selectable units for air pressure (kPa, hPa, bar, mmHg, inHg, atm, Pa);
- Vertical Speed Indicator: selectable units (mt/min or ft/min), selectable variometer sensor (GPS or Air Pressure)
- g-Meter : selectable axis for measuring the acceleration.
- Turn Coordinator: uses the gyroscope and the accelerometer to gives you the bank angle.
MAP:
The map inside Sky Avionics is perfect to see what is your position, your direction but also the track of your flight.
TILES VIEW:
To maximize the usability, the Tiles view shows you instantaneous data all in a single view: you can see your speed, AVG and Max speed, altitude, vertical speed, distance from start, time from start, direction and current pressure. You can set every of these tile with the data you prefer.
RECORDER:
It is a simple but very useful function: starting it, you can track your flight and see it after stopping, with Speed and Altitude Graphs and track.
WARNINGS:
Sky Avionics uses sensors inside the iPhone (and Apple Watch) like accelerometer, gyroscope, barometer(iPhone 6 and 6 Plus only), and GPS.
CONTINUED USE OF GPS AND OTHE SENSORS RUNNING IN BACKGROUND CAN DRAMATICALLY DECREASE BATTERY LIFE.
