iMSB Release 3.7

With iMSB release 3.7 we are glad to introduce support for GPS triangle racing. A GPS triangle is setup as a global map overlay that can then be reused in each of your models. The standard classes such as scale/SLS and Sport class are supported. In addition a free class is available that allows to fully customize triangle size and parameters. The existing OLC sensor, that is now available for all GPS sensors, has also been extended to support GPS triangle racing. When the OLC sensor is activated, you first need to select if you want to fly an FAI or GPS triangle task, as well as select the desired triangle. You may then specify task parameters and customize the different values. GPS triangle task results are written to the recorded flight log and can be accessed from there. Detailed tasks statistics are also available in the flight statistics section. 

Please note that iMSB is not currently homologated for official GPS triangle racing and is still in an experimental stage.

iMSB for HoTT:

The iMSB for HoTT application adds the possibility for waypoint programming on Graupner flight controllers and copters supporting this function. Waypoint programming is performed via a dedicated sensor (GPS Waypoints) that needs to be allocated in the model. On the displayed map you can then graphically add and edit commands and actions in order to define your flight track. The flight track can be directly uploaded to the flight controller (requires new generation iMSB BT module with firmware 2.1 or higher), as well as exported to a file.
