6.1.2 Flight Recorder
The main display unit has a built-in flight recorder fully approved by the IGC (a sub-
committee of the FAI) and will produce secure flight records that are acceptable for all FAI
requirements including world records.
Select the recording interval and enter the pilot name. Pilot weight is important if ballast is
specified in kilograms of water (see Chapter 6.1.11). If the system is used in two-seat
aircraft the name of the co-pilot may also be entered.
There is no setup for glider type. Glider type is defined in the Polar and Glider
setup (see Chapter 6.1.13).
There are very few settings for the flight recorder compared to other instruments.
This is because main display unit will record all additional data such as wind,
speed and vertical speed by default.
If a new pilot is entered, upon exiting the dialogue the message “Do you want to create new
profile with this pilot?” will be asked. Answer YES if you want to quickly add a new profile.
For more information about profiles see Chapter 6.1.12.
