RoVFR vs Volario

This app leverages the official vfr.caa.ro web platform's API in order to provide an easier, handier, VFR flight management tool for paragliding pilots. In Romania, for a legal VFR (Visual Flight Rules) flight with any ultralight aircraft, including paragliders, gliders or drones, you need to have an active VFR notification submitted to Romanian CAA (Civil Aeronautical Authority). For this, the Romanian CAA provides an official web platform accessible at https://vfr.caa.ro . This app is built on top of that for an easier and handier usage.

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. FREE AND PRO Free: fast vario and flight instruments, custom cockpit, all maps, all airspaces with activation times, IGC recording, logbook, statistics, gallery, 3D replay, Bluetooth varios, watching live tracking. Volario Pro (subscription) adds: - Navigation to waypoints, goal and competition tasks with start gates - Thermal assistant and thermal profile - Airspace warnings, airspace instruments and airspace altitudes in your units - Elevation profile along your course - Offline maps for regions and routes - Creating groups and live tracking in the cockpit - Second map layout, FAI sectors, track colored by climb The fast vario needs a phone with a barometer.
