Hi Karl,

FLARM did not calibrate the PowerFLARM units when manufactured. They still
do not calibrate new units before shipment. They don't think many customers
need it. The units were not calibrated during the recall updates.

I can calibrate them here. I ask customers if they want them calibrated
before shipment.

The calibration only needs to be done of you want to use it to validate
badge and record flights or use it in international competitions. It can be
calibrated after the flight for many badge and record flights.

Best Regards,

Paul Remde

It was serviced for a recall just a few months ago and sealed per IGC so I
assume it was also calibrated.

I believe the European Flarm is different then the US PowerFlarm.
Does this work with US version.

Is there a way to declare to a portable PowerFlarm or do you
just use written declaration with the IGC file?















Modify your flarmcfg.txt file. Use free flarm config tool
software -















http://www.segelflug-software.de/prod_flarmcfgtool.html. Change
the















waypoint file using the file of your country (most are in the















software). Select your task waypoints. Push button to make a















flarmcfg.txt file on your microSD card. Insert microSD card into
your















portable. Power up.















If your desired waypoints aren't in the country waypoint file,
you may















have to edit the waypoint.fln file.















You may be able to declare directly from a PDA. I am able to
create















declarations in XC Soar, and send to my PowerFLARM Core/Brick
via an















IOIO card and android phone.















Either way gets a valid IGC declaration into my PowerFLARM.
Easiest/















cheapest is via microSD or USB flarmcfg.txt file.















It does in Canada with a Brick - same as US. FLARM file is the same







no matter what hardware it is on.

Have you had your Flarm calibrated to use is for a badge declaration?
