3.5 Flight optimisation

3.5.1 Groundspeed (speed over ground)

The GPS-Receiver calculates its new position once every second. Speed over Ground is

derived from the distance between these positions. It is possible to reach conclusions about

the wind’s influence from the difference between flying speed (Airspeed) and the speed over

ground.

3.5.2 Wind direction and Wind strength

It is very important to know the wind in direction and strength, especially in

case of an out landing.

The wind strength can be selected within the user

defined fields.

For this purpose it is however necessary to fly one or two

complete circles at similar speed as possibly can be done.

Duration time for

one full circle should at least be 16 seconds,

some more time would be

better.

Whilst circling, the 6015-GPS determines the direction of least

speed over ground, and checks also synchronously if in opposite direction

there might be the fastest speed over ground.

The calculation of wind speed and wind strength is the result hereof.

Wind direction is shown in the compass rose at the position from where the wind is blowing

by a small, inwardly pointing arrow. It indicates from where the wind is blowing.

in die Kompassrose an der Stelle, aus welcher der Wind weht, ein kleiner, nach innen zeigender

Pfeil eingeblendet.

During the landing approach this symbol should always be at the top.

3.5.3 Glide ratio (= L/D ratio)

By definition, the glide ratio is calculated by taking the horizontal distance traveled and

dividing it by the height which was lost. If instead of the horizontal speed the speed through

the air is accounted for, the error is 2% at glide ratio 5 and just only 0,5% at glide ratio 10.

This small inaccuracy may be disregarded.

3.5.4 Glide ratio (= L/D ratio)

Again, by definition, the glide ratio is calculated by taking the horizontal distance travelled and

dividing it by the height which was lost on the way.

Glide ratio over Ground :
