Paid money and received no app
Excellent app for Instructors
Pas adapté au format des nouveaux iPhones
Quelques fonctions ne sont pas utilisables ( comme les boutons previous-next )
La visibilité est également mauvaise en mode test sur la partie vor
En bref une belle idée , utile , mais mal réalisée .
Good learning tool.
Excellent product
Unrealistic instrument behavior
Update: Your response is nonsense. I’ve used plenty of modern digital displays like Garmin G5 and G1000 and while the OBS is only capable of selecting a course in 1 degree increments, the CDI needle itself still moves fluidly in an analogue manner as bearing to the station is changed. Stop making excuses. The instrument in this app does not behave the same as a real life VOR indicator in virtually any GA airplane.
Response from developer
Hi, I'm sorry that you find the app unuseful. The OBS, in fact, ticks once per degree like you said. This is consistent with the way the OBS knob works in many modern, non-analog, VOR displays. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further concerns.
Disappointed
Good!!
And it was money well spent.
Buggy and not intuitive
Útil
Excellent, and it has an RBI!
Pocket procedures trainer
I would suggest this for all instructors and IFR students.
iOS 11
Please fix it.
Response from developer
The App has been updated and works on iOS 11. You may be experiencing a problem as a result of updating the app after updgrading iOS. If thats the case deleting the app and reinstalling it could solve the issue. Please let me know if you are still experiencing a problem. Safe flying!
CFI-I Review (Updated)
IPad Pro 9.7 v.11.1.2
• Settings > Instruments “BIG \/ SMALL” does not work.
• Motion sensors still changes heading at warp speed. Absolutely useless.
• If you are going to provide an option for turning via the motions sensors, use an algorithm which works similar to a real control wheel/yoke.
[Ref. X-Plane 10 for iPad]
• Add delay variable when rolling in/out of standard rate.
[Ref. VOR Tracker]
• Based upon most textbooks (FAA, Jeppesen, ASA, Rod Machado, etc.) and typical training aircraft with ‘standard’ instrument configurations, the HI should be either on top or bottom—not in the middle of the NAV instruments. If you disagree, make the option to place any instrument in any of the tree locations.
[Ref. IFR Trainer]
• My guess, however I could be wrong, it’s general aviation students/pilots or CFIs using this app. Having to press twice to achieve a standard rate of 3 degrees per second is distractive. Put an option in Settings to set the default to match the pilot’s preference.
! Based upon the Law of Primacy, train the student’s eyes, motions, and thinking (even with simple trainers) according to norms/standards from the very beginning. Negative Transfer of Learning is expensive! “It’s an iPad typically held in the left/right hand” is a poor excuse.
! “This is not a flight simulator” is not an excuse for making something that could have been made otherwise and better with a little research, foresight and testing by a few CFIs / CFI-Is.

Thank you for the detailed review. I am considering updates to address some of the issues you mentioned. 1. I've tested it on different devices. Std. rate turn in the app is correct at 3º per second. Please note that the turn buttons are multi-rate. Each press on the button increments the rate starting at 0.5 to 2.5 x Standard Rate. You might have hit the button only once, which resulted in a 1/2 standard rate turn. A second tap on the button will produce 1x standard rate. 2. Position of the panel is configurable via the settings screen. The reason the displays are on the right by default is that most users are right-handed. Therefore, it is much easier to control the instruments from the right side for most users. However, you can change this on the settings screen. 3. I'm not sure why you'd expect the heading indicator on top. In a traditional instrument panel, the HI is on the bottom row and the VOR displays are to the right of the primary instruments. In the app, the heading indicator doubles as a control for the airplane's heading. The middle position on the screen is easier to control. I will look into having an option to reconfigure the position of the instruments in a future version if more users are interested. 4. This is a very specific configuration that may work for one user but not for another. I'm considering adding an option to save airplane and navaid positions for quick scenario setup. 5. Not sure why you'd expect specifically 5 NM, but it's a good idea to add an option of configuring grid spacing in the settings. I'll work on this for a future update. 6. Since the controls are being so sensitive, I will work to improve this soon. 7. That is a good idea for an improvement, thanks. 8. Please keep in mind that Nav Trainer is not a flight simulator, and therefore doesn't have all the instruments you'll find in an actual airplane. That would be a distraction from the scope of the app of training pilots on the use of radio navaids. However, this may be a nice idea for an add-on in the future. I appreciate the feedback, and hope I've addressed some of your concerns. Safe flying!
