Thermal Screen
The analog vario display as well as altitude, digital vario and wind and compass show exactly the
same as on the standard screen.
On the bottom right you can see the altitude curve of the last 30 seconds. This display can be very
helpful to see at a glance whether you have gained or lost altitude. A short look at the screen is
enough to know immediately what is going on without having to read numbers or remember
numbers.
The thermal assistant displays the last 60 seconds of flight with dots. The dots show, depending on
whether they are filled or not, or whether they are large or small, how the climb / sink rate was at
that point. Large black dots indicate good climb, large circles indicate strong sinking.
This thermal assistant can be very helpful if you have fallen out of a thermal and want to find it
again. But please keep always an eye on the airspace around you and don't keep looking at the
screen, however helpful it may be. It is best to try the thermal assistant if you are flying alone in a
thermal.
