Let’s Hear From You!
We’re especially looking forward to your feedback on the new autopilot integration. Whether you’re testing in the air or in the simulator — your experience helps us make VFRnav even better.
I’ve been thinking for some time about whether the radar field in the bottom left could be replaced by marking aircraft on the map (Stratux) in red via the settings.
This would make the display much more legible, for example on a mobile phone.
Perhaps also add a voice announcement at an additional alarm threshold of 1 km.
That’s exactly what’s planned
The traffic radar will be completely removed and replaced by a coloured highlight of traffic contacts directly on the map. Additionally, there will be a visual warning at the top – analogous to the existing airspace warning.
An audible warning is also included.
Originally, this change was scheduled for version 4.14, but unfortunately it didn’t make it into the update and is now planned for version 4.15.
…I don’t think the box is bad at all. You can define, according to personal taste, when it should appear! The visual perception is, in my view, also greater, because something suddenly pops up. I can imagine that you perceive that better than the change in colour. …this was already a consideration in the pre-phase. The box would need to be closable and the transparency adjustable as with the approach charts. Colouring the corresponding aircraft symbol red when it is in your personal collision area is, of course, top! …
Hello Hermann
In the Apple version, the FIS frequencies are displayed with lots and lots of zeros after the third decimal place.
On Android, that’s not the case.
Have a look at it.
Best regards
