Re: Downloading Flight Track

Did we get altitude and then lose it again in version 5? I didn't check version 4, but I don't see it in the logs from version 5....

Re: Downloading Flight Track

I'm interested to know how to get the altitude information extracted from the flight log as well. I've managed to get my flight loaded into Google Earth with time stamps, but can't get any altitude info to show.

BTW, I love the iFly!

Curious about the altitude - Just used the gpsvisualizer tonight with ver 6.08 and did not get any altitude readings in Google Earth. Have a missed any instructions on getting the altitude?

Thanks!

Re: Downloading Flight Track

Doh, looks like this is still not properly fixed. The sentence format is correct, but we're always putting "0" for the altitude. I've added this to the bug list, we're having a patch release in a few weeks this will be included.
