Flight Logging Stopped during Stop and Go

Question 1 - Is it possible to prevent the auto stopping the logging? Question 2 - When I try and use the merge logs function it says that the logs were merged but it cannot be saved due to duplicate file naming - how do I enable log merging?

Sending the logs to yourself and doing this on a PC might be helpful, where it's easier to rename and manipulate the files.

Hi Tim, How do I enable manual logging?

J Group: Forum Members Posts: 1, Visits: 4	Hi! I do have a similar question. I used to have an old, simple android tablet for skydemon but switched to a Samsung Galaxy S6 Mini with Skydemon 3.16.3.21673 recently. Since then the touchdown time is no longer noted and the logs don´t stop automatically. Is that because I press the offblocks button and would it work if I just started the navigation mode? I tink I´ve always used the offblock button even with the old tablet. Thanks a lot! Jo Edited 6/26/2022 7:32:00 PM by JoMensdorf

Do check that your new tablet is correctly reporting speed and altitude after you take off and land, before checking what logs are created.
