Comparing the Flytec 6030 and the Naviter Blade


The 6030 has a compass rose. You follow the arrow (which takes
into account the cross wind component and it always pointed up when you are
pointed in the right direction) to fly toward the next turnpoint. The Blade has
a moving map with a course line displayed on it (if you want). You line up the
line displaying your heading with the course line unless you have a good reason
to head in a slightly different direction, like toward the next cu. Your glider
symbol also points in your current direction.

So I'm not sure whether the Blade gives you a direction to fly that accounts for
the cross wind. It would appear that you need to account for that yourself.

Speaking of winds. The 6030 can display in a user field the current wind
strength. It supposedly displays the wind direction on the compass, but I really
can't see it (it does, of course). The Blade displays a wind direction arrow,
but the wind speed at the default font size can't be seen. You can press your
finger on the wind direction arrow to see the speed and direction. This
information is also available for different altitudes.

The 6030 can display the component of the wind in your current direction in a
user field. The Blade can also do that This is the manual's discussion of the
current wind component:


Current wind component (cWind) = Wind component in current
direction of the flight. Positive values are tailwind, negative values are
headwind. Two numbers are displayed. First number is difference between
groundspeed and true airspeed. The second one is wind component derived from the
calculated wind at current altitude. When the two are significantly different
you will know not to rely on the calculated wind strength.
