Title: Skydemon Pilotaware Location Problems
Post by: turkeysneck on March 13, 2019, 09:06:32 pm

I'm pretty sure I've set everything up OK, but when I log into Skydemon, create my route and click on go flying, I select use pilotaware but then it shows my location at Popham even though I am based about 150 miles from Popham, any ideas what I am doing wrong ?

Hi T,

Sounds like SkyDemon isn’t getting any position data, so is reverting to its last ‘Known Position’.

When you say...

Obvious question - I take it you did connect your tablet to your PilotAware WiFi hotspot in the tablet’s WiFi Settings Page before selecting ‘Go Flying - Use PilotAware’ ?

What type of tablet are you using?

Can you post a screenshot of your PilotAware Homepage ?
This will tell us if you have a GPS lock, and what version you are running

Thx
Lee

Yes I did connect it to the wifi hotspot and chose pilotaware before going flying. I'm using an ipad mini 4.

I'll try it again at the weekend inside the aircraft and see what happens. If I'm still having problems I'll upload a screenshot.
