The only one vario that actually works really really good in real flight(using with samsung S9 phone). The only downside is that it doesnt work in the background, so I have to use dedicated phone as I use xctrack as my main app (however their vario cannot compare with this one). Actually using it as my main vario. I wonder why this app is not used more and updated more, it definitely has good potential, it would be great the frequency of the tone would also change, not only space between beeps.

stops beeping after 3-4 minutes. hope it would get fixed

Works!

Well done for trying to put together all these sensors, the accelerometer is the key for better various in the future but it can be quite difficult to integrate with the altimeter. Testing it at home seems amazing, I will test it in the air soon. Please keep updating and polishing it.

Shows constant sink rate of -0.8 on a flat table. Probably, it can be fixed...

On the ground the results look promising, will try it soon in real conditions. Would it be possible to have a finer resolution for the sink sound similar to the rise sound? A first beep for -1m/s sinking is a bit too much in my opinion.

About this app

This Vario contains a full working Attitude Heading Reference System,
so the device always knows it's momentary attitude. This enables the integration of vertical accelerations which are then combined with vertical speeds derived from the classical pressure sensor to create an exceptionally fast response time compared to the standard pressure sensor only varios.

Devices need the following sensors to run this app:
- Pressure sensor / Barometer
- Accelerometer
- Magnetometer
- Gyroscope
- GPS

Attention!: Since a paraglider is a pendulum stabilized system,
the accelerations on the pilot during flight only applies in one direction
(downwards), thus the device must not be freely rotated.
It only displays high quality vario output when
attached to a fixpoint like the pilots cockpit!
Otherwise elaborate calibration becomes necessary in order for it to work.

This trial version is limited to 5 minutes of audio output.
