The price is significantly updated as well. Too bad no one else offers this type of put of the box solutions with their software, all it takes is a week long trip to China...

Hi,
I also have Oudie 3 units in stock. I'll have them on my web site later today. Best Regards, Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring, Inc. |

Lastly, will it be possible to upgrade some of the new features (Like the 12.5HR battery) to an Oudie 2. Thanks PS Richard, Enjoyed talking to you and your Oudie presentation at Nephi. |

I believe the GPS and recorder are good enough for OLC. Screen shots are different because the software is for hanggliders and paragliders. It can accomodate the sailplane software I don't belive it will be possible to upgrade a current Oudie the case in the Oudie 3 is about 1" thick to accomodate the battery.

Thanks As far as getting the Oudie 3 approved as a "GPS Position Recorder" (as opposed to an IGC Approved Flight Recorder), that's certainly a possibility. This would allow it to be used for Silver/Gold badge claims. The two biggest things you would need to demonstrate (over and above all the usual IGC format and basic security stuff) a - Projection: The device should not do any sort of "forward projection" if the signal is lost. This can be verified with a simple test conducted in a car. - Accuracy/Consistency: The device should operate within the normal GPS position accuracy parameters in both lateral position and (more importantly) altitude. A good way to demonstrate this is to record a number of flights with the Oudie at the same time as an approved IGC FR. If one assumes that the IGC approved FR meets the "specs", then the GPS Position Recorder should be in relatively close agreement without a lot of spurious fixes, drops, etc. If anyone is interested in running with this for the Oudie 3, please contact me offline.

I'll second Kirk's comment on thanking Richard for his Oudie seminar at the
meet In Nephi Utah. It is fantastic when someone with his knowledge and patience can give a class during a full on event. We all learned alot and put it to good use the next day. THANKS RICHARD!

Hi,
Unfortunately, It is extremely unlikely that the IGC will approve the Oudie 3 for badges and records. They don't trust PDA/PNA devices because they think someone could write software to intercept and change the GPS data before it is recorded. I don't agree with them on this, but that is I understand their position. The Oudie 3 can either run the sailplane version of SeeYou Mobile or the Paraglider / Hang Glider version of SeeYou Mobile. I show a few screen shots of both on my Oudie web page. http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/seeyou.htm I don't think Oudie or Oudie 2 units can be upgraded to Oudie 3 units. There are many changes to the circuit boards to accommodate the pressure sensor and different GPS. However, I don't think most glider pilots would want to upgrade. The Oudie 3 is great for pilots that want to use it in club or rental gliders, but customers using the Oudie 2 in their own glider with an external GPS or flight computer connected have no reason to switch. The vario in the Oudie 3 is a cool idea, but since it is not a total energy compensated variometer, it is not nearly as useful as the varios you already have in the glider. It will show lift every time you slow down and sink every time you speed-up. I am still added accessories to my Naviter web page. I'm also going to add an Oudie comparison table. I hope to have everything done later today. Best Regards, Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring, Inc. _______________________________________ "K" wrote in message ...

Hi Paul,
While the device will not be approved as an IGC Flight Recorder, it is up to the individual NACs (the SSA for the US) to determine whether to approve them as GPS Position Recorders, which allows the device to be used for badges up to Gold. These devices do not need to live up to the full specifications for an FR, though they do need to provide some level of security that makes it impossible (or at least exceedingly painful) to modify a log file without it being obvious to the OO. The SSA has already approved the FlyWithCE recorders as GPS Position Recorders. Hopefully the newer version of the Oudie will address the concerns that prevented the earlier versions from being similarly approved.
