Installing GaggleGetting help with gaggledevelopers page

Features now ready for use:

  • Leonardo Live usage
  • Leonardo upload
  • Flight logging
  • View flights on map (live or stored)
  • Send flights via email (IGC file format)
  • Delete flights
  • Basic flight instruments (not yet reconfigurable)
  • Add/Edit/List/Delete waypoints
  • Auto import waypoints when the browser visits .wpt links
  • Waypoints can have a ‘type’ set – Gaggle will automatically show GR required to reach nearest LZ waypoints
  • Allow the user to view IGC files from the net or local filesystem
  • Color code waypoints: blue=in glide, yellow=barely in glide, red=not in glide
  • For testing purposes, you can enable “Simulate GPS Data” in the preferences. It will playback a prestored flight.
  • Auto detect launch and landing for logging purposes
  • Send tracklogs as KML files (I tried to get google earth for android working, but I don’t think google has implemented file opening yet)
  • G Meter

To do soon:

  • Fix any reported bugs
  • Add turn cylinders and routes
  • GPS based pseudo vario
  • Optimization: leave gps client running less often
  • Show lines for the route
  • Option of a white screen (default on for OLED)
  • Gestures for switching screens
  • Poll waypoint positions less often
  • Make my basic google maps replacement (using the open map project), to allow non north up viewing/non internet connected topo
  • Replace programmer art with real art
  • Long-click on map to create waypoint
  • Show flight times on the flight log book
  • Use the UDP based protocol for leonardo live uploads
  • Show arrows for direction to next waypoint and compass heading
  • Optionally save the IGC files to the sd card by default
  • On map view optionally show a 2d altitude plot (possibly by making an altitude plot InfoField)

To do someday:

  • Calc wind speed and direction from compass, ground speed, given airspeed and ground track
  • Show airspace
