We are glad to announce that iMSB release 2.7 is now also available in french. This version supports the same features as does the original english version. However we were unfortunately not able to adapt the voice recognition engine, therefore voice commands are not available in french. As a workaround you may still use the english commands. Please note that models generated with prior versions of the application will not be translated automatically into french.

One great feature that has also been added to the app is the possibility to export flight data over iCould Drive, OneDrive and Dropbox to your PC or Mac. Flight log data may be exported in the LogView Open Format Zero for detailed analysis in LogView Studio. As a standard csv data file it may also be used by any other application supporting this format. Flight tracks can also be exported in the kmz format for 3D visualisation or even playback in Google Earth. Finally we also reconstructed standard NMEA GPS sentences that can be used in you favourite mapping application

Features:

• French version of the application. Please note that french voice commands are not yet supported
• The geocoded location of a recorded flight is now displayed, together with the date and duration, in the log view
• Added the possibility to edit flight location information

• SM Modellbau’s GPS Logger II is now also supported
• All SM Modellbau sensors support the measured height change value. In addition an integral vario value has been added to these sensors
• Optional sensors in Wstech LinkVario oder SM Modellbau sensors can now be disabled en bloc and not value by value
