How much memory does the Flymap Software require?
|
Flymap uses its own, very compact data format. The Flymap Software
and all other approach charts from the AIP (over 400 maps)
require more approximately 90 MB on the memory card. That means
that a 128 MB memory card is sufficient for information about
Germany. A 256 MB memory card is sufficient for information about
half of Europe. |
|

Our company resides directly at the airport Zweibrücken (EDRZ).
So it is possible to arrange for a test flight. Simply send us an email.
Also Flymap is present at various events (and exhibitions).

|

Yes, because of the simple power supply (12V-connection) the
system can easily be used on different airplanes. When there
is no 12V-socket we can recommend an accumulator set on inquiry
that supplies the system securely with power for hours.
|
|
How can I get acquainted with the Flymap functions?

You can 'fly' by using the 'Demo-Mode' – while staying safely on the ground.
|

In no case. Flymap does not replace the legally ordered navigation
recourses. |

Jeppesen VFR/GPS Charts are available for many countries in Europe.

Pocket PC and the GPS receiver are supplied with power through a
joint 12 V-connection in form of a cigarette-lighter-connector (plug).
|
|
How much is the energy consumption of the Flymap system?

about 10MB of the main memory (RAM) are still available.
|
|
Can I also use different GPS receiver?
|
In principle, you can use all NMEA-compatible GPS Receivers.
However, not all GPS receivers are sending all the necessary
data needed for flights and have to be re-programmed. |
|
Can I send in my GPS receiver and ask you to re-program it?
|
No, that is not possible.
|
|
How does the connection to the iPAQ work?
|
There is simply one cable that loads (charges) the iPAQ and
that connects the iPAQ with the GPS.
