Flymaster LIVE-DS with FLARM

Flymaster LIVE-DS  –  Dual Screen GPS Alti Vario with 4G LTE Live Tracking

The most complete free-flying instrument ever created. For the most demanding pilot, focused on winning, whether in competition or cross-country.

The LIVE-DS features two high contrast highly sunlight readable displays, one colour display for mapping and a monochrome display for data fields etc.

A protective rubber Bumper Case is available to safeguard the instrument from bumps and drops.

• Task Map (trace with thermal indication)

Live Tracking

• Flight data can be efficiently uploaded to various repositories, such as the Leonardo XC server, XContest, and DHV, utilizing the GSM network.
• Automatic almost real time flight data sending to a remote live tracking server through GSM network. (compatible with several servers like Flymaster, LiveTrack24, DHV, etc)
• On demand sending of predefined messages to a server (eg. Need Assistance, Need Retrieval, etc)
• Effortlessly receive data from a remote server, including alarm messages, task definitions, and more, through automated processes.
• Optimized LTE-M/GPRS data usage is minimal, with an average requirement of only 25KB per flight/hour, assuming uninterrupted communication.

Interfacing
