Flight Log Perhaps one of the most useful features of the Stratomaster Ultra instrument is the ability to record a flight log.
You can setup your Stratomaster Ultra to record a log entry in one of the following ways:
- Automatic flight log for normal aircraft. This will automatically detect the start of a flight and the end of a flight. The unit uses engine revs in combination with airspeed to detect a flight. This is the way most pilots prefer to operate the Stratomaster Ultra.
- Automatic flight log rotor craft. This operates similar to above but air speed is not taken into account. Instead, rotor speed above 70% of the 100% setting is used to mark possible start of a flight. If you select the split rotor/engine RPM display this mode is automatically selected.
- Manual flight log. In this case the pilot manually starts a flight and ends it. This mode is used mainly if no rev counter input to the instrument is available. The Stratomaster Ultra will log all flights of longer than one minute. Any flights with less than one minute accumulated time are not stored in the log.
The Stratomaster Ultra will store the last 200 flights in the log.
At the end of a flight, the pilot number selected in the main menu will be written to the log entry for the flight. This can be used to log airtime of several pilots, for example with fractional ownership or aircraft owner club schemes. The log can be viewed at any time. Please also note that the log may be downloaded to a PC using a direct cable connection or key-ring download device (optional extras).
The following information pertaining to a flight will be logged:
- Date (DD/MM) of take-off
- Take-off time.
- Flight time. Displayed in either hours and minutes or hours and fraction of hours depending on setup.
- Highest altitude reached (In ft or meters depending on setup)
- Maximum airspeed obtained. Displayed airspeed depends on whether ASI or TAS is selected. (Displayed in kilometers, miles or knots depending on setup).
- Hobbs meter reading at end of flight/lesson (Displayed in either hours and minutes or hours and fraction of hours depending on setup)
- Pilot number
Download Keyring Device
Use your Download Keyring Device with Airtalk/PC cable to transfer your Ultra or Extreme instrument’s flight log details onto your PC. It can store the full flight log up to a maximum of 240 flights.
All you have to do is occasionally connect the key to your instrument to update any new flights you have made since the last time the key was connected.
Once the data has been downloaded into the key it can then be connected and transferred into the Flight Log program running on the PC (free download below).
