Task completed but not recognized

Hi Guys
I flew this task with the wrong glider for the competition task.
I did complete the task properly but it only recognizes the distance up to the first TP.
Is this normal when using the wrong glider?
It actually reports an Outland for the result.
Regards
Jeffrey

Re: CondorPatch220

Hi Wickid, all I did was install the latest patch. It was fine before that as I had flown tasks that day.

Hi Guys, after installing the latest patch the sound comes and goes and fades out completely. Condor2 was working fine before I installed this patch. I can no longer use the program without the vario.

Re: Flying without PDA

Without the PDA it is easy to just miss the TP and waste your time with a non qualifying flight. I still haven't discovered what the cause of the non starting is. The photo option doesn't make sense, as I flew the task before without taking pictures and looking at the base of the flag pole etc. I wo...

Re: Flying without PDA

I've flown this task a few days before and I wanted to experiment with different water loads. I didn't take pictures the first couple of times I flew it so why would I have to now? It's a LS8-sc neo glider not those old canvas and wood gliders with no electronic instrumentation. Why would it work ea...

Re: Flying without PDA

If the result of the task is "Warmup" you don't get any messages. Why does this happen and what causes the flight to be warmup? If the flight is designated as Warmup couldn't you make a warning message appear after starting? I was experimenting with different water ballasts to find the optimum load ...

Flying without PDA

Hi Guys, I flew a competition task and it has no PDA. Would it be possible to add messages to inform the pilot that he has started the race, made the TP etc. I flew the whole task only to discover that it doesn't have any details and just says "Warmup". At least a start message will inform me that e...

I thought the trim was on the joystick somewhere as I had read about a spring-loading feature.

Re: Centre of gravity adjustment

Thanks, I was having a hard time thermalling with half water ballast. A friend suggested a CoG of -4 and that made my LS8 Neo glider more stable when thermalling and gave me better control. As you mentioned it does mean that the top speed is decreased however not being able to thermal means the flig...

Centre of gravity adjustment

Hi Pilots

I've never flown in a glider and only have Condor2 experience.

In a real glider is the COG adjustable in flight?

Would it be an advantage to be able to change this setting between thermalling, ridge flight and final glide?

15m glider

Why is the LSneo glider not included in the 15m class?
Is it because it doesn't have flaps?
Cheers
