Thank you Tim for your answer, I assumed that...

I discovered that the instrument shows up if:

- in "landscape view" you have to turn of at least one other instrument (you can view only 5 instruments)
- in "portrait view" you have to turn off 2 other instruments (you can view only 4 instruments)

I use the MD in portrait view, so it's explained why I couldn't see the wind instrument even if I turned off one like in the image I linked...

It works the same as it does on the PC, iOS and Android versions. It shows the wind, or the headwind, assuming that you have synced wind forecast data which is valid for the time of your flight.

Ok!
Hi all... I was reading this post: http://www.skydemon.aero/forums/Topic11458.aspx

Nice find, I didn't see this function on the MD so I got my MD and looked for it. I found it and I selected to show it up.

I loaded a route in the SD plan on PC, synchronized with the Mobile Device for NOTAM, METEO and so on.

Once in flight (taking off I had about 10 knots headwind) I checked what instrument was showing... but it was black Unsure
I mean, I could see the space under TRK indication, but couldn't see any value about wind.
I assumed that there wasn't enough room for the instrument, so I turned off the TRK one (like in the pic in your website http://www.skydemon.aero/inflight/), but nothing!

So, I'm asking myself... how this function works?
