Yes, that's what I had in mind when I asked the question. For the Starlink Mini service, there are "stationary" and "in motion" plans available. (There are also certain geographic restrictions, though I think those are unlikely to come into play for most iFly customers.) In the past, Starlink...

Are there any constraints / limitations to that service regarding location or movement? I.e., does the phone need a clear view of the sky, or would it be expected to reasonably work from inside an aluminum-skinned aircraft? Does the phone need to be stationary or moving "slowly"? I ask...

iFly is just an app on your device, like any other app. Internet connectivity is handled at the device level--that's not something iFly controls. For example, some people are starting to fly with Starlink antennas in their planes, which provides Internet service in flight. You can do the...

Not if you have your options set correctly. Go to Menu > Setup > Map Settings > Auto-Track Plane (if moving), and make sure "Center Aircraft (no skew)" is UNchecked. When this setting is checked, your ownship is always at the center of the screen. When it is unchecked, then when you start...

The 740b internal battery was never intended for extended/primary use--the feature was advertised as an "emergency battery". Its intended usage was in the case where the main power source failed or was disconnected, the internal battery would keep the unit running long enough for an alternate...

...did you ?

You might want to call Adventure Pilot and talk to someone directly about that. Page 48 of the iFly Pilot's Guide does explicitly mention the iLevil BOM and its Angle of Attack data, and iFly does have an Angle of Attack instrument that can be displayed, so it seems to me like it should work...

If he's got a Stratux that works, there's no real reason to change. I've been using a DIY Stratux for many years with no issues.

Good idea--done!

Just start an email in whatever client you want, use the email address from a past bug report, write up your new bug report, and attach the relevant log from the C:\_iFlyGPS_Data\User\#Logs folder. It won't have all the auto-populated data in the message body, but I think a lot of that is...

That's really a Windows thing, not an iFly thing. I've never bothered trying to set it up so that GMail is the default mail app, but there are various instructions on the web that supposedly work. If iFly is auto-generating an Outlook message, then it should be short work to just copy/paste...

No, that's not an IFR thing. If you land (either VFR or IFR) at a big airport with a lot of runways and taxiways, the taxi instructions might be somewhat involved. MDreger's just trying to suggest a way that iFly could help with that.

I think the problem with that idea is that there is no data source iFly could consume that has the taxiways defined in such a way that iFly could know what taxiways exist and where they are physically located. There are airport diagrams in the Chart Supplement (A/FD), but they're just images...
