Tim,

you have solved why it is picking up truleigh farm! Where I am sitting right now, that airfield is the closest to my current position, so there is some intelligence as to why I have been 'blighted' by that airfield :o)

As you know having used your products for some years, I have extolled the virtues of the product to all the pilots I met or have instructed.

The iPad mini with skydemon is a perfect fit, 10/10!

Thanks Nje,

That does not seem to be the case for me. If I set the weather to RAW data it remembers it for that session but if I quit or log out of the SD app it always reverts back to decoded even after selecting RAW.

OK, in that case then, I don't think you have any other choice , you'll just have to click the 'raw data' button to see it

Ridders,

Slightly off thread - sorry, but you mention 10/10 for iPad Mini. I'm looking to get one for the cockpit, can this be yoke mounted, and is any of the practical functionality lost due to the reduced screen size - I understand that all the current iPad functions will be there, but just wondering if the reduced screen makes them difficult to use?

Hugh

Regards

There should be no reduced functionality on iPAD mini. I use both ipad & mini. Aside from the screen size there is no difference. There are yoke mounts for both (see Sporty's pilot supplies and others). Personally I simply use them as knee pads, with good uninterrupted GPS reception and not to obstruct the instrument view (Commander). Both deserve full marks when used with SD.

I use the same RAM mount (universal gps holder) as I did with my 5 inch chinese device, Just removed the side claws, and stuck a bit of velcro onto the mini. It holds it perfectly.

But, my birthday is looming and I'll be getting this which is due for release in a few weeks.

I've already got the yoke mount arm (part number RAM-B-121B)and extention arm (part number RAP-B-201) that will be also be needed to attach it to the yoke

Hope this helps
