FlyQ Pilot's Guide

Distance slider FlyQ normally hides airports that are beyond a certain distance away to reduce screen clutter. You may want to change this depending on where you’re flying. For example, if you’re near New York City or in Southern California, you’d probably want to restrict the distance while a flight in Wyoming may merit a much larger allowed distance.

Tape (Ruler)

FlyQ can display a moving tape at the top of the screen that gives a sense of heading. It’s normally hidden as the standard Gauges are more comprehensive and use the same screen space.

2D "Radar" View

FlyQ shows a handy overhead image of nearby airports in a small window at the bottom right. Distance rings at 5 and 20 NM give a sense of distance for each airport. Unlike a standard 2D map, which is also an overhead view, the 2D Radar view bases airport locations on where the camera is facing, not the direction of flight. In other words, it matches the display on the AR view and changes as you rotate and move the iPad or iPhone within the cabin.

Note: Tap the small view in the corner to see a larger, more detailed image.

Mode Toggle

The 3D cube button cycles between 2D, 3D, and AR views so you may need to tap the button twice to get AR, depending on where you start. Note: You can disable the AR view with a switch in Settings (gear icon at the top of the screen) if you like.

Gauges

The last button controls whether the Gauges display (text displays that show speed, altitude, track, etc.) is shown at the top of the map or not. The Gauges are on by default.
