Vertical Profile

How can I adjust the floor of the Vertical Profile? It shows I'm at zero feet when I am really at 5,800' sitting on the ground.

Re: Vertical Profile

Do you have a GPS or ADS-B with GPS connected? iFly needs something to tell it your altitude.

Thank you for posting!

Does iFly show a GPS altitude? If you don't have a GPS lock, the Vertical profile won't have much meaning. iFly needs your GPS (or ADSB device) to tell it your location and altitude. What is the iFly "Altitude" reading? Is the flashing top banner saying "No GPS Lock" visible?
