Description
Full featured Hot Air Balloon Navigation
Balloon Nav is a full featured GPS mapping and live track sharing app that has all the tools you need to get the most out of your flying. The live track sharing feature allows you to share your flight and receive the flight data from up to 8 others. The app has the full capabilities for loading kml overlays and waypoints, online/offline maps, drawing over the map, setting navigation lines, dropping markers and clicking the track line to get the GPS data. There is a robust database backend that stores the settings and track files for later (great for logbooks). There is a pinball reader function that allows sharing readings with your tracking group and a met wind data plotter. In addition there is a load calculator, and as an extra purchase an addon bluetooth barometric altitude module available.
Please be advised that the majority of this app will not be accessible without an in-app purchase of a monthly subscription.
We provide a video user manual at the following youtube channel.

The GPS system is quite poor for altitude calculation, so Balloon Nav has developed an add on Bluetooth Altitude Module that uses barometric altitude. The module connects seamlessly, has fine QNH control from the app and is very accurate. It will be available for purchase through eBay soon, search Balloon Nav Altitude Module on eBay.com.au.

What’s New
Version 10101
A new easy to read dashboard with fluid layout resizing. Try resizing it across the top of your screen, or down the side, or as a box, it will adapt. Any items that don't fit in your dimensions will overflow and can be scrolled to with a finger slide. The resizing handle is in the bottom right corner and the repositioning handle in the top left. If you want bigger text increase the tracking font size in the settings panel on the far 4th down on the far left. The vario data will only work with the add-on Balloon Nav barometric altitude module.
