Greaser landing at Compton Abbas and back to Dunkeswell with a friend

On the odd occasion that our Sky Echo has stopped working, I have re-set the tablet to use it's internal GPS. Of course, your tablet needs to have a GPS and Apple are notoriously tight in that direction. (we have a Samsung tablet - don't like Android but have to admit it's a clearer screen, doesn't overheat and does have an internal GPS). So I tolerate it. 😀

My SkyEcho packed up completely on me today. Had to switch to my Glonass backup receiver/

Charlie, I use SD on an iPad Mini with a PilotAware providing GPS. Never lose GPS fix from it. Seems a better solution than SkyEcho ?

[@CharlieLamdin]

I've heard that, but I've spent the money now!

Presume that was SkyEcho crapping out? Seems to happen a lot

[@CharlieLamdin]

Yes

they push the hemispherical flying so much here, and as far as I can tell in the US as well. Seems strange its not happening in the UK as well.

Have you tried turning your mobile to airplane mode while you fly? Maybe your mobile is interfering with the signal and your iPad is tethering to your mobile data when it experiences a connection issue.

I've managed to trouble shoot it now, it happens occasionally, but less now. Firmware update helped.
