Hello,
Not quite sure whether this is the right place...
I would love to use XCSoar's automatic MC setting feature.
This will set the MC according to the last 3 thermals, and will auto adjust on final glide to optimize the final glide with the Speed Command vario function.
The condor nmea protocol seems to support the LXWP0 nmea sentence:
https://github.com/XCSoar/XCSoar/blob/m ... or.cpp#L59
One could implement the $PVLXV0 sentence.

$PLXV0, command, R/W,parameter1,parameter2,...parameterN *CS<CR><LF>
$PLXV0, MC,R/W,MacCready[m/s]*CS
Since we have already an XCSoar implementation of the above NMEA sentence in XCSoar I could easily extend xcsoar's Condor driver with the necessary changes, and would volunteer to do so.
PLXV0 implementation: https://github.com/XCSoar/XCSoar/blob/m ... ttings.cpp
An alternative would be to implement the MC switch via UDP protocol...
Would such an implementation be possible?
