Re: Condor 2 on Mac with M1 ARM Chip

I'm just getting back into using Condor 2 on my M1 MacBook Pro. It is still running well, but now I have a new problem. I would like to connect XCSoar on my Android tablet to Condor 2. This requires a virtual com port. I'm having trouble finding any software that can set this up for Windows 11. Can...

Re: Windows 11

My best MS OS ever after XP... Wouldn't go back for nothing... Smoother, not hysterical when there are updates working and you start losing coherency in your TCP stack, ... Condor3 will run even better in Win 11... With the number of potential iOS and Linux users if one day they could also port Cond...

Re: Condor 3 feature requests

Welcome John ! I am new to Condor and I have to say that it is pretty amazing. My wife wonders where it is that I disappear to for hours at a time. Kudos to the development team. My cat is a lot more efficient in finding me, and positively trying to interfere with my flying skills :D Regarding the r...

Re: Naviter SeeYou Navigator

Thanks to all for your contributions, and specially to @cbrunschen for his very clear explanation about the different modes of BT available and how to easily follow a DIY solution! I never touched an arduino or the like, nor do I have the necessary place to work, or tools to build a device using a b...

It was a bit of a pain to set the baud rate of the BT module, but I got it working and was able to replay a saved IGC file from SeeYou Windows, as well as to connect to Condor.

Could you share what baud rate worked for you?

Thx!

Naviter SeeYou Navigator

I bought a yearly subscription from Naviter to be able to use their handy Navigator with my Android mobile in my soaring for real flights, but just as with xCSoar and Top-Hat, it would be great to have it coupled to Condorsoaring. Have any of you managed to get such a setup working? Can you point me...

Using CONDOR for X-C Practice

Not my video, but it was shared today in a group of users I belong to, and it's really worth the watch IMO:

Re: Setting airspace for tasks

Thank you for your replies.

I will try to do it by hand, and probably use CoCoCo (??? :-) ) for coordinate conversions, which will be very handy!
