Gpx import

According to the FAQ, a gpx flight plan can be placed in the root of the sdcard, or a folder called fltplans in the root of the sdcard. I have tried this on two devices and do not see the gpx when I try to load a flight plan in ifly. Any help?

Re: Gpx import

For Android, you have to put it here:

{SdCard}/Android/iFly.GPS/files/iFly/Data/FltPlans/

We need to update our FAQ for this new Android feature.

Re: Gpx import

Also, we should accept the path:

{SdCard}/FltPlans

This is case-sensitive. "fltplans" won't work.

Please let me know if this now works for you.

Re: Gpx import

Can't make either of those work. I'm running Android 6.0. I also tried various permutations, following the case sensitivity and folder structure. As a check I loaded the gpx into another program and converted it into kml successfully. I have both gpx and kml in the FltPlans folder. No luck so far.

Re: Gpx import

Please try it again (try Load Flight Plan option), then after it fails to find them, do "Menu => About => Send Bug Report" so that I can see your folder structure.
