Radar Performance vs BragalBox
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Radar Performance
This application calculates the geometry of aircraft weather radar beams relative to Earth, the freezing level, and the "bright band" for optimal weather detection. It identifies areas on the radar display where the beam is too high or low for effective weather detection and highlights potential ground returns.
- Calculates weather radar beam geometry
- Considers Earth and freezing level
- Identifies optimal detection altitudes
- Shows areas of ineffective beam coverage
- Highlights potential ground returns
- Supports various radar models

Radar Performance calculates the geometry of aircraft weather radar beams with respect to the earth, the freezing level, and the band of altitudes that provide the maximum weather radar returns (the "bright band"). It also shows the areas on the radar display where the beam is too high or low to effectively detect active weather and areas where you may see ground returns. Radar Performance also includes an Overfly mode for confirming that the tops of lower-level convective weather remain safely below your aircraft. You choose a safe clearance altitude and a tactical range, and the app calculates the radar tilt at which the bottom of the beam just reaches that altitude at that range. With this tilt set, any weather returns indicate that the tops have penetrated your safety margin, so going around the weather is advised. Overfly mode is available at aircraft altitudes of 15,000 ft and above, and is inspired by Tom McGrath's "Snowplow" technique. Radar Performance supports a variety of weather radar models as well as a "generic" model. It is not specific to any aircraft type.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: BragalBox at 14.0 against Radar Performance's 16.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
