4 Using FLARM-NAV

FLARM-NAV basically operates through a series of pages. The primary function of FLARM-NAV is to display

FLARM-equipped aircraft and to alert the pilot of possible conflicts. The secondary function is to provide

basic navigation functions for cross-country flying. Following is the FLARM-NAV front panel layout.

The USB port is used for downloading IGC files and uploading of turn-points and performing firmware

updates. This port uses a standard USB flash stick.
