Can you please add the "rotate screen 90°" option? If you are slightly taller or operating a Discus/Duo Discus, the top screen disappears under the top push buttons (as from second 8-12 in the video)

Is the 8030 IGC compliant for competition and record flights?

Great lecture. Thank you.

It better do more than that!

Sehr gutes Video!!! Keep the grind 🎉

Very nice!

It should be touchscreen as well

Could the Professor please explain what he means by negative burst vs positive burst ? These are terms not in common use by pilots. It is unclear if that means updraft or downdraft. Thank you

Here is the TLDR version: Use Hawk on cruise, as it eliminates false lift signs. It is still a valuable instrument. The beginner will sometimes take away that this means you should not use it in climb. I would disagree with this sentiment. But understand that the difference between the two can be caused by horizontal gusts, **and** conditions that have degraded an optimal polar sink rate. There is a lot to be learned from that second aspect while you are thermalling. In short, avoid the situations where you see it, because it is causing your glider to under-perform. You will see this as a delta between the two needles, with Hawk reading high. The cause might be how you are flying at that instant, or what the conditions are doing at that instance. I rarely see a significant delta when climbing. I think pilots/gliders that consistently see a large delta should check their polars, and check their bugs settings, as you are likely not achieving the theoretical polar sink rate. This might be due to having the wrong polar (including proper weight), having an issue with your glider (a poor refinish, or deteriorating surface). I am pretty sure that a high percentage of gliders are flying with 0% bugs, when they know in their heart that their glider can't achieve that. Do you really think it can hit factory perfect polars, with perfect tape, perfect wax, ideal airflow, ideal technique? Of course not, but almost all pilots fly with 0% bugs. The bottom line is that you shouldn't just assume that Hawk is wrong. Something is wrong, and you might not be aware of what it is. But you should address it, as it isn't just making the Hawk inaccurate, it is making your glider perform sub-optimally.

Kann jemand den Inhalt des Videos in einem Elevator Pitch zusammenfassen?

Do you have an English translation please?

Kill the music. There is not much LX video here. It’s mostly wing on a hill.

very slow and unresponsive. any cheapo tablet can do much better than this. come on!

Winpilot, lufty

What app do you use for that?

Sorry for off-topic question but what is that grey lever on the bottom right of the panel? Flaps? Trim?

Can you read the screen ok with it away on the panel there? It is just that I am used to an Oudie mounted closer to my eyes and I wonder how I would get on panel mounted.

And there we have it. I think I know what I'll choose. What is the difference between the 8040 and 8030 then? Does the 8040 not "drop in" to an 80mm instrument location? Does the 8030?

Well done! Looking forward to seeing them in person

One of these would look good next to my LX9050 :O

Ohh heck yeaah!!

How mutch thes waher we .found

Is the great warning based off of GPS altitude to terrain or over the nearest airfield?

You guys have got to turn "made for kids" feature OFF. It is NOT made "for kids". It's not letting me subscribe to you or get alerted to your new videos! Remove this setting from both your channel and your individual videos. Awesome products. I would love to use them in my new (to me) DG505MB

Awesome!

When are you going to produce your own variant?

Not wanting to be too negative, especially around new features - but the frame rate for dragging is just terrible, it needs to be at least 20 fps, ideally 60. Otherwise I'd say it's barely usable, especially while flying. I realise it's not an easy thing to do at all, especially with older hardware, but it's so critical to making it usable. Maps on a recent iPad is a good example how it should be done. Hopefully there are optimisations you can make to improve it.
