Kobo touch device

Post by Andrew Maltby »

For Ron,Lloyd and Gary the email address for the Kobo Touch device is:-

getkobomini@hotmail.com

Make sure you ask Nev to set it up the same as mine because that will then display the MATZ aswell as the normal atz.



For the spherical compass I think I got that from airworks.co.uk

Thanks for the info Andrew.
I decided to build my own, so if anyone wants to do the same the info is here http://tophat.freeforums.org/kobo-glo-w ... -t231.html

The nice thing about these devices is that you can see them in very bright sunshine and they work with gloves on. :)

If anyone is interested I can give a talk on setup and using xcsoar / top hat.

Lloyd, I think that would be wonderful idea, look forwards to that.
