NEW NAVIGATOR VERSION 3.10
User comment:
I use it and like it very much.
It does the job and is simple to use. A major benefit when you're in new
locations and need info at the ready.
1 Map Quality: I dont know too much about the WP maps, but the FlywithCE stuff
works when needed. I dont use it regularly as my location is pretty flat. Flat
terrain maps are boring to look at. Most of the time I leave the map off and
use the waypoints only.
2 Lat/Long: have groundspeed displayed and tap it. It will bring up a box
displaying the Lat/Long, Track, Groundspeed, GPS Altitude, Nav Status, and
number of satellites.
3 Airspace files: I had this problem as well in the beginning. Turns out my
airspace files were formatted bad. I did a little checking and made sure the
formats were ok, then double checked the airspace tab to enable the specific
classes. Also nice that you can show the whole airspace colored or just the
boundaries. Also very interesting when the sectional is displayed and you can
see any differences between the sectional airspace and the airspace files
imported. Very eye opening in some places.
4 Marking Position: thermal positions are marked on the map screen showing
location and rate of climb (or sink) automatically when flying. Better to find
the position out the window and get a fix that way. However, I have used this
feature when re-entering the area after several hours and many miles have come
and gone.
Above all else, the ease of use is the best feature and the support from Uros is
fantastic. The capability to have the program registered to an SD card is also
very cool, gives you opportunity to try out different PDA's before you buy one
(or if you need a better one eventually).

for
Pocket-PC
for pilots, not just computer nerds!
In these past five year program
changed from simple application which would display waypoint and airspaces to an
advanced program with several added features. But one thing is still there -
program is simple to use. Maybe this feature is sometimes misleading, but long feature list
proves that most features that you would need in the air are there and those you
don't need or want can as easily be left out.

Navigator
1. Program is simple and
easy to use
Navigator is a full featured glider
navigation program. On the map you can see
waypoints, airspaces
and selected task. As a background you can use
elevation,
differential and bitmap
(raster) map.
It also calculates and displays useful information
about the final glide, speed and direction of wind and
speed to fly. On the second window thermal statistics
are displayed.
2.
Memory card installation
With version you can easily transfer Navigator from main memory to
memory card (usually SD or Compact Flash memory card). This
will preserve main memory space and all your files together
with program, settings and recorded flights will be stored on
one memory card. To install
the program from memory card you just have to plug in the
memory card and Navigator menu option will be added to the
Start - Programs - flyWithCE menu. Use this shortcut to run
Navigator program from memory card.
Register
Navigator to memory card
Some pilots are using Pocket
PC exclusively for flying and after long winter they find out that because of
the empty battery all the programs and databases were lost. Memory card
installation will prevent that. All programs, databases and settings will be
preserved and you will just have to recharge the Pocket PC battery
New
registration codes are displayed In Register dialog when you
have memory card inserted. Use this code while ordering
Navigator and registration key will be tied to the memory
card. This means that Navigator will work if you have this
memory card inserted in Pocket PC. This feature is working on
Pocket PC devices with operating system version Windows Mobile
2003 or newer.
Order
Navigator on memory card
New navigator
will enable you to register program to memory card. This will
enable easy device upgrade, where you will just unplug the
memory card from the old device and insert it into the new
device.
Memory card
options are available only to registered users.
You can now
order flyWithCE Navigator on the memory card. Navigator
will be preinstalled and registered. You will only have to add
your database files you are ready to fly.
3.
Import settings and competitive upgrade
Import
settings from Glide Navigator II
Glide
Navigator II users can now easily upgrade their program to
flyWithCE Navigator. After installing the Navigator use Import
setting function, which is located in the Installation dialog
window on the Defaults tab. This option will help you import
most of the settings. Program will also use the same database
files that are selected in Glide Navigator II.
With Navigator there are no hidden costs
There is no yearly fee to
get new updates and also last major upgrade was free of charge
(from version 1.XX to version 2.00). Upgrade policy has been
reviewed, but most likely the upgrade to 3.00 will be also
free of charge.
5. Simulator mode - Center position
Every pilot should learn to use the new software before take off.
Because of that simulator is useful tool. In the past the initial
position was determined by the contents of the waypoint database. Stat
position was in the center of the waypoint database. In new version of
Navigator user enter start position manually. By doing so, every
simulation will start at that position.
simple on screen Map-on, Map-off allows you to see terrain maps
or simply
turn them off to reduce display clutter
Thermal
statistics and height above terrain added to the second "parameter window."
Last 4 lifts are
displayed on the screen together with the average lift value for those 4 lifts.
You can use this value as the MC setting. Last 10 lifts are also displayed on the map together
with the lift average. On the map they are displayed as blue arrow and the
number beside the symbol is the average vario value for that lift.
Additional
flyWithCE
programs
Analyze
let's you display your flights, barograms and statistics directly on you Pocket
PC
Memory card installation NEW
From version 2.00 program Analyze can be installed to the memory card.
Now you can install the Analyze program together with Navigator on the same
Memory card.
The procedure is the same as for the Navigator. Please check the
Navigator Memory Card
installation section.
With program Analyze you can view flight recordings in IGC
format. It is written for Pocket PC devices (OS version 3.00 or higher). Program
will run on devices with ARM and MIPS microprocessors.

Order direct from FlyWithCE
Main menu After
you load the IGC file (File - Open... option) you can navigate to different
pages to check your flight. For quick navigation between pages you can also use
the arrow keys on the menu bar. Program will circle between pages (map page is
an exception). By pressing the button in the middle of the arrow buttons, you
will return to the Main menu.
File
info Here you can check all information that is written in the IGC file
header. Most interesting would be information about the pilot, plane and flight
recorder, which was used to record this flight.
Statistics Basic flight statistics are displayed here. UTC time is
used to display the take off and landing time.
Select task On this screen you can disable the task declared in the
flight recorder. Task statistics will not be displayed and also task will not be
plotted on the map. This is useful feature if you were not flying the declared
task.
Task statistics Analyze will check the task and display the basic
statistics: - task length - task duration (if completed)- average task speed (if
completed)- position of each waypoint- distance and course between waypoints-
time and altitude at which the waypoint was turned- average leg speed. Sector
settings (defined in Settings - Sectors tab) are used to check the task.
Map On map display you can check the flight path. If you select the
task, than it will be plotted on the map. Waypoint, airspaces and elevation map
will be displayed if you select appropriate file in the Settings dialog windows
- Files tab. The list of supported files is the same as for the
Navigator program.You can
zoom in by dragging the pen on the map. The other option is to select the
predefined zoom by selecting the icon in the top right corner. One of the
predefined zoom values is also Flight, which will change zoom value to display
whole flight.You can change the Zoom to Pan mode by taping on the icon in the
top left corner. Now when you will drag the pen across the screen, program will
change the map position (and maintain the zoom value).
Barogram You can change the scale of the barogram by changing the
setting in the combo box in the top right corner. On the barogram the ENL
parameter value is displayed (if recorded in the IGC file) and also the position
of the waypoints. UTC time is displayed.
Settings Settings are similar as in the Navigator program. Most values
are shared between the programs. So if you are using the Navigator than most
likely you do not have to change anything.
DownLoader
Pocket PC with DownLoader program is perfect replacement for quite
big and usually very expensive notebooks, which displays are usually poorly
visible under direct sunlight. After download you can check flights with
Analyze. At home you can
transfer flights from Pocket PC to your desktop computer where you have other
flight analysis software. Download flights directly
to your Pocket PC device with program DownLoader. Flights are written in
device memory in manufacturers and in IGC file format. With program you can also
upload and download waypoint and task file and change IGC flight recorder
settings.
