Flytec release new firmware for 6030

16 January, 2008

Flytec 6030Flytec have a released a new beta firmware for their integrated instrument the 6030. The new software isn’t generally available yet but is being tested by several top pilots. We’ll let you know when it is on full release.

  • Four User-fields option with larger font size
  • Bigger direction arrows in compass
  • Vario Response Delay settings simplified (0-4) where 0=fast and 4= slow. I recommend a setting of 3 to start (with a vario lift threshold of 4 ft/min or 2cm/s)
  • Bug fix: Set waypoint of the actual position with long press WP key (confirm with F1 “Add Wayp”. This is possible anytime the GPS is acquired (on the ground, in flight with or without active route).
  • Bug fix: Alt1/Mrk key doesn’t save a Waypoint in the waypoint list anymore. Instead it sets a marker in the E record in the IGC file
  • Battery threshold for segment 8 reduced.
  • Flight date derived from the first valid fix in the IGC file.
  • GNSS Altitude set to 0 in case of 2D fixes
  • Baro Alti is based on 1013.25hPa
  • Bug corrected in input of southern latitude coordinates
  • SMS-Bluetooth function activated (module and unlock code required)
  • Bug fix: in drawing circles of CTR’s in the map mode.
  • Polar table increased to 250 km/h
  • Erroneous characters in Info line removed.
  • User pressure offset for the correction of the pressure sensor
