Balloon Live app and sensor - Test recording and operation recommendations

Dear Pilots,

To best prepare for any technology hiccups to be solved before we start the event, I would like to ask you to carefully read and follow these 3 important steps:

CHECK

Please check the following:

• the latest version of the Balloon Live app is installed (v2034)
• the Balloon Live Sensor has the latest firmware version (v4.19)

For further information and latest updates, please visit balloonlive.org

TEST AND TRAIN

To test the Balloon Live app with a BLS connected, you will have to log in with your WatchMeFly-account. Then select the Open Austrian Nationals 2024 event to load the competition and flight data.

One practice flight has been defined and is ready to be used for testing. To test that everything is running smoothly, start at least one flight recording and let the app record for a minimum of 5-10 minutes (the longer, the better). While recording this flight, please do also test dropping markers and declaring goals. Watch especially for a good reactivity of the system. Maybe you can also include a waiting time between the selection of the marker/goal number and the final drop. This creates a realistic situation and will help eliminate potential problems. Don’t hesitate to repeat the recording. You can record multiple practice flights.

Once you stopped the flight, you can find your flight data on WatchMeFly.net for download.

Until the General Briefing we will check if all pilots have done such a test recording.

GET READY

Finally, please download and read the new "BLA and BLS Operation recommendations", available for download on https://balloonlive.org/downloads/

If you have any problem, please check the FAQ on balloonlive.org or ultimately contact support@balloonlive.org. 

Best regards,

Martin Wegner

Event Director
