## What is FlightSpace?

FlightSpace is a professional UAV flight planning tool. It combines altitude-specific weather forecasts, route analysis, terrain profiles, and key preflight risk assessment in one app.

Key capabilities:
- wind and gusts at multiple altitudes;
- temperature, humidity, and dew point;
- cloud cover, estimated cloud base, precipitation, and visibility;
- wind and weather maps;
- weather analysis along a route;
- terrain profile, line of sight, and Fresnel zone;
- azimuth, distance measurement, and map points;
- risk assessment using operator-defined aircraft thresholds;
- suitable weather-window detection;
- Ukrainian and English localization, with light and dark themes.

FlightSpace turns complex forecast data into a clear assessment so operators can identify critical factors and make informed decisions before takeoff.

Important: FlightSpace is a planning aid. It does not replace preflight checks, actual observations, official regulations, or operator judgment. Forecasts, digital terrain models, and radio calculations contain uncertainty and may not include local obstacles, interference, or rapid atmospheric changes.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.2 — 2026-09-16

This update improves forecast reliability and fixes the Nearest Window section.

- Collapsing Nearest Window keeps the hourly forecast visible while hiding extra guidance and controls.
- Fixed humidity and atmospheric pressure data being lost after changing forecast settings.
- Improved wind readings at altitude, including forecast ranges up to 2,000 and 3,000 m.
- Fixed weather-model comparisons in Auto mode when using a three-hour display interval.
- Improved fallback source selection and recovery from incomplete forecasts when automatic refresh is enabled.
- Improved secure connections to the weather server when loading several forecast models at the same time.

Missing and calculated values remain clearly marked. Your aircraft limits are preserved.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-16

This update improves the dashboard, wind profile and forecast reminders.

- The Nearest Window section can now be collapsed to show only a concise forecast result. The reminder bell is easier to notice.
- Weather icons and readings are aligned consistently in the expanded Weather card.
- Fixed the wind compass response to device orientation. North is marked in red and the wind arrow in green.
- Sun Times now includes night length and morning and evening twilight durations, with guidance on thermal imaging.
- Added guidance on clouds, precipitation and radio links, including the limitations of assessing a connection from weather forecasts.
- The wind profile now offers maximum heights of 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000 and 5000 m. Higher ranges use 100 m steps, while the 500 m view retains finer detail. The selected range no longer depends on the aircraft's operating altitude.
- Fixed reminder rescheduling after cancellation and improved spacing in Settings.
- Added an FPV profile type and icons for different aircraft types.
- Fixed a dashboard scrolling hang and refined layouts in light and dark themes.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-15

This FlightSpace update improves weather forecasts, introduces new tools and refreshes the interface.

What's new:
• A redesigned main card and Weather Assessment screen with a clear conclusion, current warnings and key readings linked to their details. Sources, data quality and assessment methodology are now presented separately, with distinct labels for missing data and disabled checks.
• A wind rose showing the distribution of wind directions and speeds, with explanations of the readings.
• An expanded Weather card preview with up to five days of forecasts, temperature, wind speed and direction.
• Full-width layouts for the Weather and Wind Rose cards.
• A redesigned wind compass that clearly distinguishes where the wind comes from and where the air is moving.
• Civil twilight times, day length and a countdown to sunrise and sunset.
• Humidity, dew point and temperature-dew point spread in temperature details.
• Adjustable altitude in the terrain and signal profile, using your aircraft's operating altitude by default.
• Saved aircraft profiles, weather windows matched to your required duration and reminders to check the forecast again.
• More explanations of weather readings and practical guidance.

Improvements:
• Better Auto mode handling when individual forecast sources or fields are unavailable.
• Temperature at altitude remains visible when humidity is missing, including GFS forecasts at 100 m.
• A more compact timeline with altitude and wind information in both collapsed and expanded views.
• Consistent card layouts, settings, typography and colors in light and dark themes.
• Improved label, time and compass direction layouts on smaller screens in Ukrainian and English.

Forecast, calculated and unavailable readings are now identified more clearly, helping you assess how complete the forecast is.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-09-09

Improved network request protection and reduced incidental data storage when fetching forecasts.

Strengthened server address validation and connection error handling while preserving forecast, route analysis and offline cache functionality.

### 1.0.7 — 2026-09-07

Added a gentle opportunity to rate FlightSpace after viewing a forecast, analyzing a route, or measuring a distance. The request is eligible only after several days of use and does not interrupt map interactions or subscription purchases.
