There some limitations with using your iPhoneX  or Android Phone as a device for running SeeYou Navigator during soaring flights.

 The issues screen dimming and shutdown due to overheating - are common challenges faced when using smartphones in high-temperature environments.

The Oudie N, on the other hand, is designed specifically for use in aviation and is optimized for outdoor use. Its screen is brighter and less prone to overheating, and it is designed to withstand the rigors of being used in a sailplane cockpit.

If you are looking for a device that is specifically designed for use in soaring flight, then the Oudie N may be a better choice for you than your iPhoneX or Android Phone. However, keep in mind that the Oudie N is a specialized device and is more expensive than a smartphone. Additionally, it may not offer the same level of versatility and functionality as a smartphone running SeeYou Navigator.

Ultimately, the choice between using a smartphone or a specialized device like the Oudie N will depend on your specific needs and preferences. If you prioritize a device that is optimized for outdoor use and can withstand high temperatures, then the Oudie N may be a good choice. However, if you prefer the versatility and convenience of using a smartphone, then you may need to find ways to mitigate the heat and battery issues you are experiencing.

SeeYou Cloud Integration will need a subscription to SeeYou Cloud

SeeYou Navigator's integration with SeeYou.Cloud is a powerful feature that allows pilots to seamlessly synchronize their flight planning and data across devices. With this integration, pilots can create and edit tasks, add and update waypoints, and even upload and analyze flight logs on the SeeYou.Cloud website using any device with an internet connection, and have them automatically synchronized with SeeYou Navigator on the Oudie N.

This means that pilots no longer need to manually transfer data between devices using memory cards or other methods, which can be time-consuming and error-prone. Instead, they can easily access and share data with other pilots, and always have the latest information at their fingertips.

Furthermore, the integration with SeeYou.Cloud allows pilots to leverage the power of cloud computing and data analytics to optimize their flight planning and performance. For example, pilots can use SeeYou.Cloud to analyze flight logs and identify areas for improvement in their flying techniques, or to compare their performance with other pilots in their network.

Overall, the integration with SeeYou.Cloud is a valuable tool for any pilot looking to streamline their flight planning and data management, and to take their flying to the next level.

Weather Maps

The Oudie N has the ability to receive weather maps through its built-in Wi-Fi connection or via a tethered internet connection from your phone. With a current SkySight or TopMeteo weather subscription, you can access real-time weather information to help you optimize your cross-country flights and maximize your soaring experience.

The weather maps available on the Oudie N can include information such as wind direction, wind speed, temperature, humidity, and cloud cover. By analyzing this data, you can make more informed decisions about your flight plan, including selecting the best launch time, route, and altitude for your flight.

Overall, having access to up-to-date weather maps on your Oudie N can be a valuable tool for improving your soaring performance and making the most out of your flying experience.
