Current location precision

Would it be possible to add a little precision to the current location instrument?

39° 55.79... The grids we fly require .1 minute accuracy

Re: Current location precision

It's not possible right now. It would probably require a setting or a different instrument, as the text is already pretty tight in there, not much room for more. Here is a hint that might help: if you tap the Current Location instrument it will pop up a form that has higher percision lat/lon.

The popup has the precision but it doesn't keep updating. A new instrument current location high precision would be awesome, stack the lat lon vertically, or one instrument for lat another for lon

Re: Current location precision

If you're using a stratux, you can (with a bit of effort) switch to it's web address, get the lat/long, then switch back to iFly.

Just put an icon on your tablet's page next to the iFly app with the Stratux address: 192.168.10.1 Click on it when you need it. You can create that with your browser.
