Description

A fully functional portable glass cockpit (EFIS) for general aviation pilots.
It improves your flight experience, offering you intuitive visualizations for enhanced situational awareness.
It provides a backup system for all relevant instruments for navigation and orientation in the air using the internal sensors of a tablet or smartphone or an external solution (such as our SensorBox https://helios-avionics.com/product/sensorbox/ or third party GDL90 compatible devices like Talos, Stratux or Levil).
Therefore, it contains all relevant functions of a modern glass cockpit on a tablet, as well as the advantage of redundancy due to complete independence from the built-in avionics.
New intuitive visualizations improve the situational awareness and thus make it possible, in particular for private pilots, to provide greater flight safety, less stress and thus greater enjoyment of flying.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

1 ★My device has the required sensors but this app reports that it doesn't. I assume that spending some money would help with the unlocking of those features!
2 ★Asking for creating account, then app didn't really work. To complex to start and use.
4 ★Can you please make it so that it can only use the phone sensors
3 ★Its got potential
3 ★Good start, still a ways to go. Needs to link to Stratus 2 or rasberry and would be much more useful. I love someone starting out and would love to support it but this just doesn't put out enough value for the $149 price tag. Having to mount phone perfectly horizinal entire flight makes it unrealistic to use inflight. Ended up on unstalling it hope they rethink their business model.
4 ★I tested this app with Flightgear. Absolutly perfect. With weather CAT III minimum visibility I was able cross the Alps in Twottie without any trouble. But I missed one thing - flightplan direct from Flightgear's Route manager. Because this app have not RNAV fixes in the database, I can't make flightplan for RNAV approach.
3 ★Not compatible with internal GPS on my phone. Even when I'm at 30k feet MSL, position update interval is several minutes and it says GPS unreliable. While my other APPs works with my GPS.
1 ★Poorly written. Spp can not be moved to external SD memory.
3 ★Has potential and I would like to see it develop but price is very steepconsidering it's limited features.
4 ★Takes a few minutes to get accustomed to all these various features. It comes with a manual though and lots of options how to tweak the view, looks like a nifty tool for every pilot.
5 ★Great software written by what are obviously very capable, experienced and intelligent people.
5 ★Awesome new application! 很好!
