Strepla or Win Pilot

[Mal]

I have purchased a Navman pin has built in Gps

Have a Volkslogger but no need to connect it to the navman pin.

I will be using it in Australia what is the better of the two.

You cold also consider XCSoar which is available for free. It is not as
sophisicated. However, it depends of what you want.

Try looking at:

Hi,

I sell and support StrePla. It shines in regard to maps and in-flight
optimizations.

WinPilot is excellent software as well. I don't sell WinPilot but I have
flown with it in the past.

I have not tested either product on the Navman Pin but you could install the
demo versions of each product for testing.

You may also want to consider SeeYou Mobile and Glide Navigator II. Those
are the 4 most popular options.

I have created a soaring flight software comparison web page which may help
you decide. It is available here:

Good Soaring,

Go to http://www.soaringpilotsoftware.com and look for GPS_LOG WinCE.
Navman uses 75600 baud rate (or is it 76000)

Try GPS_LOG, which may seem a little complicated at first, but after getting
used to is one pretty good piece of software. Contrary to XCSoar it's
actively supported and developed further by Henryk Bierki.

Great chart!

SeeYou now has a free product called ConnectMe to up/download
flights/waypoints/tasks/declaration to many loggers, so you may wish
to update the chart.

While it is standalone from Mobile SeeYou (even users of other
products can have it free) I see it as 'part' of that product.

Hi Mal,

It is my understanding that the Navman PIN has an internal GPS so you
shouldn't need a cable to connect to an external GPS.

I can sell StrePla to you at the discounted price if you have the voucher
that came with the Volkslogger.

Hi Mal,

You will probably need to do some searching to find out on which comm port
the GPS data is available. I suggest you try using the free "Crux_View.exe"
utility that is available on my GPS page to test for the PIN's GPS on comm
ports 1 through 9. If that doesn't work it may not be possible to use the
PIN's GPS.
http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/gps.htm

I believe pocket*StrePla cannot connect to a GPS until you install a license
file. That may be the problem.

Hi Mal,

I can sell the upgrade to you. It is available for StrePla only, or for a
"Bundle" of StrePla and pocket*StrePla. Details are available here:

am aware I have to pay hence my pain staking research.

Of course, since XCSoar is now an open source project, if you ask
nicely, someone might fix it...

I guess it depends on your view point as to wether a product is
supported or not. True it is not now developed by the orginal people
who started it. However, the source code is available for free and I'm
sure that somebody you know would be able to work out how to modify the
code to function on the Navman

I'm happy to try GPS_LOG and will do so next time I fly.... in the mean
time if it can load a map image and some air space files now that would
be funky.

Hi

Henryk does a great job supporting GPS_LOG, the latest example being the
DAFIFtoMAP program, which creates the airspace file of your choice based
on DAFIF data. Lots of maps are already available and the web site
contains the information needed to create your own maps, once again
using geographical data from internet. It may look first a bit
complicated, but it isn't :-). Also you get good support from the user
community if you have questions.

Take a look at http://www.soaringpilotsoftware.com , you can find the
yahoogroups info for GPS_LOG also there.

Regards

Veli-Matti

Crux view works com 2 4800 baud

maybe XCsoar will work sometimes get com port in use could be navman
conflict
