About

Volario

Features
Read full description

Volario brings planning, flying and analyzing together in one app for paragliding and hang gliding. Plan your XC at home, fly it with a vario that reacts instantly, and relive it afterwards in your logbook and in 3D. A VARIO THAT REACTS INSTANTLY On its own, a phone's barometer can react a second or more late. Volario combines it with your phone's motion sensors (an IMU vario), so the vario responds the moment you enter a thermal. Flown side by side with a high-end vario, it reacted just as fast. No extra hardware, nothing to charge. PLAN - Plan XC routes and FAI triangles on topo and relief maps. - Check the airspace along your route, with classes, altitudes and activation times. - See thermal hotspots and skyways (thermal.kk7.ch), takeoffs and landing fields worldwide. - Study new sites in 3D terrain before you go. - Download regions and routes to fly without signal. FLY - Build your own cockpit: place, resize and combine instruments on a grid, across several pages. - Wave a hand over the phone to zoom the map or switch pages. No tapping with gloves. - Navigate to waypoints, goal and competition tasks, with airspace warnings before you reach a boundary. - Live tracking: see your friends on the map, whatever phone they fly with. - Works with Bluetooth varios such as XC Tracer, BlueFly and Flytec, and any instrument sending LK8EX1 or LXWP0. - Signed IGC recording that starts and stops automatically. ANALYZE AND REMEMBER - In-depth statistics for every flight: duration, distance, altitudes, climb rates, speeds, thermals and XC score. - Personal records and XC bests, per year or across all your flights. - Gallery: add photos and videos to your flights and find your flying memories in one place. - Relive every flight in 3D over real terrain, and compare flights. - Share a flight card or a summary of your year.
