Since the launch of this very popular update questions, comments and advice seem to be taking over the general 'SkyDemon Navigation' section to the extent that those of us without an iPad are having to trawl through a lot of threads to find ones of interest to us

Thats means i have a spare SD Mobile unit in as new condition. I was simply going to put it on Ebay (i still may) but thought i would check here to see if anyone out there would like to buy it from me. Tags SD Mobile For Sale

Have you had a chance to compare the two? I am interested to know if the IPAD is as accurate as the Mobile and if it can update position as frequently. I would like to hear from anyone who has tried both.

Having compared the two i would have to say that i couldn't detect much difference in the accuracy. Certainly good enough for VFR. The SD Mobile has the advantage of the Instrument page with ILS if that is important. The iPad has a clearer display and you can get real time info whilst flying if you have 3G. Its a matter of preference. Let me know what you think.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 30, Visits: 293	I also agree with other members that it has now become necessary to have a stand alone iPad section on the forum, I have used both devices iPad and SD mobile and both work great, but trying to find information about the SD mobile device etc has become very painful with the prominence of the iPad. I have decided to use the iPad as my preffered option and therefore would like a designated section to swap info and tips, in doing this it would alleviate the hassle for the SD mobile users etc in trawling through loads of unecessary posts. Regards Nigel
