[SPAM] Re: AFPD Grid and Objects

[Ed Alt]

This is really cool!  Just tried it last night.  The only thing is that it seems like the references are closer than 150m and that center circle seems tight.  Maybe it seems that way because it's 2D, but it's a little hard to decide if I'm at the right box depth.  Any hints on this?  I tried flying behind it, which works OK, but then it seems a bit difficult to maintain a consistent depth

  Subject: AFPD Grid and Objects


  For those of you with Aero Fly Professional Deluxe, Rodeo (Dr. Roeder) just added some more objects to his Farmland Grid at my request. He has added horizontal and vertical circles, 45 degree lines and the ability to move any object including the box grid left or right, up or down, in or out. The grid maintains the 60 degree angles as it is moved in and out (at 175m the box is larger than at 150m). You can also turn any object(s) on or off by editing a text file. The 45 lines are currently a "V" object and I asked him if he would either make each 45 line independent or add an "X" object and perhaps vary the size of the circle(s). If you wish you could move, replicate and combine objects to make more complex maneuvers such as Cuban 8's. Here is his website if you wish to download the grid and objects: www.rodeo.onlinehome.de . He has been very helpful and responsive to my requests, so please thank him for his efforts if you like what he has done.
