Oudie won’t download flight

Dennis
My thinking is if the logger is permanently on then it is going to record your flight, every time, without having to remember to turn it on. My CAI 302 and my PowerFlarm both automatically record my flights BTW

Idea Nick. I have changed the settling. Thanks everyone.

I have my Oudie2 updated to the latest s/w.

Now, when I land after a flight, I get the "Flight will Finish" caution on the display, and the Oudie locks up - I have to do a hard reset via the button on the back to restart it.

Not a big deal since I don't use my Oudie as a logger (my PF and SN10 take care of that), but it is irritating.

Anyone else seen this problem?

Hi Kirk,

I'm not sure if this is the issue, but make sure the Oudie is not trying to save the flight log to a microSD card when one isn't installed. Go to Menu, Settings, Files and set it to save flight logs to internal memory if it isn't already.

Best Regards,

Hi Paul....I think you mentioned this before... when I go to menu...I hit files and that page does NOT say saving file to anything. I get a greed out terrain...A greed out airspace....waypoints resident flash \airfields and airspace\USA\U. And the file folder Flight Folder.... has \ResidentFlash\Flights\. When I hit the button to the right of the list of files including the flights folder.

I on’t see anywhere it says save to memory card..

Good idea - I'll try that tomorrow. Thanks!

My Oudie 2 hangs up after flying a task and landing. It started doing this after I interfaced it with my Portable Flarm. It works well during the flight otherwise. I too have to do a "reset" to get it working again.

I tried setting the Oudie 2 not to allow the flight to be downloaded from the Flarm, but that didn't help either. It hangs up at the end of the flight regardless of the setting ... and I have a Micro SD card.

Even with the "stuck" Oudie at the end of the flight, it still contains a valid .igc file and I've used the file successfully for regional races.
