FlyQ Pilot's Guide

FlyQ records your GPS position and altitude once per second. It does not record AHRS (yaw, pitch, and roll) information. The Flight Recorder does not require any specific hardware as it uses any GPS connected to your iPad or iPhone (including the internal GPS from an iPhone or some iPads), the GPS feed that is part of most ADS-B receivers (such as our Merlin), or the GPS feed from an in-panel system such as Dynon SkyView, AFS, or Avidyne. The summary portion of the Flight Recording tab (the one on the left side) shows whether recording is on or off and how long it has been recording ( 03:18 in the example below). When tapped, the system shows more details including on/off controls and a graphical representation of previously recorded flights, if any. The list of past flights includes controls to view the track on the main map, playback the track, edit the name and other details of the track, and send the track to other apps and systems (Facebook, email, print, etc.).

Start and Stop Recording

Automatic recording starts when your speed exceeds 45 kts for a few seconds and ends when it goes below 20 kts for a few seconds. It will also end if the app doesn’t see a GPS update for 50 seconds. Note: Automatic recording can be disabled in Settings , in which case, you can still record flights manually. Recordings are stored on your device and in our cloud system. You may disable cloud storage in Settings but certain features, such as the graphical track summary and use by FlyQ Online on your PC or Mac, require connection to the cloud so we do not recommend disabling it.
