Take paragliding to the next level: discover the new features of version 4.0 of our app
Paragliding is a fascinating sport that combines freedom and adventure. Our app has already helped many pilots to fly safely and efficiently. With the new version 4.0, we are taking the experience to a whole new level. Here is an overview of the most important new features:
1. map function: topographical or satellite
Version 4.0 offers a revolutionary map function. Users can choose between topographical maps and satellite views. This makes it possible to plan the flight route and gain a better understanding of the terrain. This function is particularly helpful in unfamiliar terrain. In addition, you can easily set and remove pins (by long pressing on the map) to plan your route quickly and easily.
2. integrated instruments on the map
All important instruments are now directly visible on the map. This means that you can keep an eye on information such as altitude, speed and climb rate without having to switch between different displays. A red arrow running around the map also shows which direction the wind is coming from and how strong it is.
3. wind data from Holfuy weather stations
Another highlight is the integration of wind values from Holfuy weather stations worldwide. This data is usually updated automatically every 10 minutes and is displayed directly on the map. This means you always know exactly what wind conditions to expect.
4. overlay of airspaces
Safety is the top priority when paragliding. That's why you can now display various airspaces from Open AIP directly on the map. This prevents you from unintentionally entering restricted or dangerous areas.
5. thermal heat map (KK7 Map)
One of the most exciting new features is the thermal heat map. Based on historical data, the map shows areas where many paragliders have already found good thermals. This significantly increases the chances of longer and more successful flights. The KK7 Map is like a treasure map for thermal hunters.
Summary: A quantum leap for paragliders
Version 4.0 of our app brings numerous improvements and new functions that make paragliding safer, easier and more efficient. Here is an overview of the most important new features:
- Map functionChoose between topographical maps and satellite views. Simply set pins to plan your route quickly.
- Integrated instruments: All important information directly on the map.
- Wind dataReal-time wind values from Holfuy weather stations worldwide.
