From my side, a question – is there an option to add video from the take of AND landing separately or do the videos need to be joined? I have uploaded videos of the landing but cannot see whether I can add a separate video of the take off – or must I cut & splice 2 videos into one?
I have a suggestion for adding new data which can be easily calculated from the existing data fields: ground speed. Ground distance is there, time is there, so just divide and show it within list of flights.
Thanks, looking into it. Probably a combination of bad AHRS data and inaccurate coordinates for this airport.

yeah I can get that but my reports are showing crab angles of a minimum 12° or more since the most recent service; what makes it more probable that the compass is not calibrated correctly is the HSI showing an heading of, say, 058 when landing on Runway 070 with a true magnetic heading of 071; I’ve started taking videos with a camera in the centre of the cockpit looking out over the propeller and I can be lined up with the centre line all the way, touch down on the centre line and roll down that centre line yet still be landing in a 12° plus crab…. next time I go flying, will try to calibrate the compass first.
However what also makes me believe something else could be off is that if I check my flight into (eg) EDWG (Wangerooge), the replay shows me landing off the runway yet the video taken from the cockpit coaming shows me touching down on the runway centre line and rolling along it…
here is a screen shot from FlySto showing the supposed crab angle – here we can clearly see the deviance between the compass heading and what the program thinks I am doing but how does a compass miscalibration result in a GPS displacement?
A screen grab from the video where I’m close to the threshold – note the lateral displacement according to FlySto.
A second screen grab a second later just before touchdown…
Same approach, another screen grab just before touchdown….
Would be grateful for any tips…..

I guess I need to calibrate the compass of my Dynon Skyview – on recent flights I’ve noticed that the indicated crab angle on touchdown is always showing to the left, but onboard video – kudos to the programmers who were able to match the video to the flight, really interesting addition – shows that my direction of flight is in the same direction as the nose is heading – ie, directly along the centre line….
You can also record an actual video and upload it. FlySto’s computer vision tech will sync it
Flown some aerobatics with FlySto today (pizza digestion on the way back from South of the Alps 😄). Unfortunately the 1Hz resolution of my Garmin stuff shows thru, still good fun to watch, but viewer’s discretion is required as I will not be held responsible for anyone turning 🤢 or even 🤮
Congrats 👏🏻
You guys now enjoy that well deserved champagne!
Thanks to all for stopping by at FlySto’s Aero 2024 stand. It was a total success. Tons of recognition and very positive feedback all around.
