Airframe Blackbox Analyzer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Every flight tells a story. Some end with a grin. Others with one question: What was that? Airframe brings order to your Betaflight Blackbox logs on iPhone and iPad and keeps signals, events, quad details, and analysis together. See what happened in the flight before you change your setup. WHAT'S IN THE LOG? Open .bbl and .bfl files on your iPhone or iPad. Overview puts flight, battery, and GPS data, hardware, firmware, Blackbox configuration, recorded fields, and supported checks in one place. If data is missing, you can see it. Airframe doesn't make it up. TAKE A CLOSER LOOK ⢠Overlay recorded or derived gyro, setpoint, PID, motor, and GPS signals in Graph. Pick the units you prefer. ⢠Scrub through the flight or play it back. Timeline, events, and craft view stay in sync. ⢠Need the exact detail? Table has every sample and decoded event. ⢠Spectrum shows which frequencies appear in your signals and how strong they are. Throttle and motor RPM views show how that picture changes in flight. Guides for your quad and the recorded Betaflight filters help put it in context. ⢠Use Step Response to compare Roll, Pitch, and Yaw behavior. ⢠Control Limits detects motor-output and PID limits in compatible Blackbox logs and shows them in Overview, Graph, and Timeline. WATCH WHAT HAPPENED Link Goggles, VTX, or Action Cam footage to your log and align video with the recorded signals. Play video, audio, and graphs together, or watch in full screen. Export the graph as a video, with your footage or on its own. Video playback and export are included in Airframe Free. MORE LOGS. ONE DOCUMENT. One flight is rarely the whole story. Airframe documents keep logs, notes, groups, quad details, and your analysis state together. Sort, group, hide, and compare. On iPad, open different documents in their own windows. Share saved documents, split long recordings, then merge the parts later. The original Blackbox recording stays untouched. With Presets, your analysis setup is ready for the next log. Airframe is also available on Mac. GO DEEPER WITH AIRFRAME PRO Airframe Pro is a one-time purchase. No subscription. It adds: ⢠Flight Map with the recorded GPS route, quad attitude, instruments, events, and GPS exports to GPX, CSV, or KML. ⢠Flight Controller connection over Bluetooth or a supported SpeedyBee Adapter 3. Import logs from USB Mass Storage when your FC offers it. iOS and iPadOS do not give apps USB serial access to Flight Controllers. ⢠CHIRP analysis with Frequency Response, Spectrogram, Tune Score, Reliability, and the measurements behind them. Compare system responses from multiple CHIRP flights. Tune Score assesses the recorded flight. It won't tell you what tune to use. What Airframe can show depends on your recording, hardware, and connection. YOUR LOGS STAY YOURS Airframe processes Blackbox logs and Airframe documents locally and does not automatically upload your flight data. The app has no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WristSAT at none against Airframe Blackbox Analyzer's 1. WristSAT also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
