Save flight plan from PC to SD card

Now that we have iFly for Windows, it would be a nice feature to be able to save a flight plan created on my desktop PC directly to the SD card used in my iFly device.

I believe that you can copy the .ifp file from the #FlightPlans folder on your desktop to the same folder on your SD card. (Although you probably want an automatic way to do that. So a $5 Helper app?)

Re: Save flight plan from PC to SD card

Simple enough. I just transfered the Windows Flight Plan folder to the User folder on one of my SD cards, I'll check out how my '720 sees them this afternoon.

Thanks!

The flightplan file copy method works fine with my '720.

Thanks!

FYI, version 10 is introducing an way to sync flight plans and settings and such between your devices automagically, via the Internet.
