The Featherweight UI phone app, available for both Android and iOS, now supports both the Blue Raven and the Featherweight GPS system!
Here's a shot of the tracker display:
This is just going out to the beta users via Apple TestFlight and Android Firebase so far, because there are some things I want to clean up before releasing them through the stores.
Here are the release notes for this build:
New Blue Raven capabilities:
-Phone app downloads flight data correctly when two Blue Ravens are on the same flight
-New manual controls for re-starting a download of flight data.
-New firmware update improves the accuracy of tilt measurements and reduces chance of false liftoff detection
New Featherweight GPS Tracker capabilities:
-Able to connect a ground station to multiple trackers
-Able to select tracker channel and edit the name
-Able to select tracker used by ground station and ground station used by tracker
-Tracking cockpit display, including
--pointing arrow
--range, altitude, velocity
--LoRa status and health
--GPS status and signal strength
--battery voltage
--Bluetooth status
Known issues include:
-Altitude display is in feet above sea level rather than feet above the pad
-Changing the tracker name requires an app restart to display correctly
-Simulation is in its early stages
-Voice telemetry is in its early stages
-Tracker recorded data is in early stages
-LoRa calculated maximum range not accurate
If you don't already access the app through Testlflight or FireBase, here are links to add yourself to the test group if you want to try out this build:
