Default Ugh. Flight trace didn't download off FLARM brick

Hmmm... pretty sure it had been powered off for at least 5 minutes.

I put the stick in, powered up, waited about 5 minutes, powered down, and removed the stick. There has been a total of about 10 flights on this device, so not lots to download.

When I got home and looked at the memory stick, I found my previous flights, but not the one from yesterday.

So at the end of the day you need to shut the Flarm down, start it up (t
download your trace) then shut it down again

And if you've got a blank memory stick it will download all the traces
which may take a while!

Do I need to bring a computer with me to the airport to check each time
before I leave the glider that the trace made it?
