From a users point of view I would have to say that the 6.x series
actually runs a lot more stable than the 5.2.4 release. I've been flying
with 6.0/1 now for two years and every time the development version
crashed, it crashed for a reason and we were able to fix it. If there
are any specific patterns to those crashes then please let us know...
Unless we have some sort of crash dump or a clue why it could have
crashed unfortunatly there is nothing we can do about it. Windows Mobile
is not quite the best operating system to debug on but since we are
running on Android now too we will have better chances to catch bugs
that are independent on the operating system.

I am also experiencing more crashes with the 6.x series on my iPaq
HX4700 ranging from complete system lock up to just exiting from
XCSoar to the OS. The crashes seem intermittent, and I can't isolate
what the issue is. My next flights I will revert to 5.x series to see
if the crashes persist.

HI Adrien and List: I have had crashes also on my Binatone Z350
PNA when adding the start point of a task.
Tried both WM5 and PPC2003 versions, they crash at the same action.

Hello,
also had a chance to fly with v6.1 today on an iPaq 1950 with WM5.
It crashed twice:
- once when invoking NAV button, in fact XCSoar has just quit
- once while showing airspace warning, ack worked fine before
but this time it froze, I had to "hard" (?) reboot it the PDA.
Now I have 3 flight logs... !
I can not see a software log, is there one, in order to help
understand what happened?
By the way, it was very nice to use.

Hi,
some more flight testing before the thunderstorms moved in
today....
As already mentioned in point 7) below, there seems
definitely some bug with the wind calculation in "circling
mode" using an IPAQ 3780 (PPC 2000). We had pretty a
pretty constant wind of approx. 20-25km/h from the west /
south west. The LX7000 confirmed this, while XCSoar
calculated max. 8 km/h from the south.
Consequently the final glide calculation from XCSoar
was 150-200m higher in comparison to the LX7000, although
MC on the 7000 was set only to 0,5 and in XCSoar at 1,0.
Could you please look into that and share your experience...
As I remember, I didn't have this problem with neither
version 6.09 or 6.010 on the IPAQ.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers,
Sascha

*Betreff:* [Xcsoar-user] Vers. 6.10 - Flight experience &
questions?
Hi,
thanks for the great work. Today I had a chance to flight
test the new 6.10 version and now I have a few questions
regarding the new functions / features:
1) Could you please explain the interactions of
the "arrival height display setting" and the "reach mode
setting" and the value shown on the "final glide bar"
(assuming arrival height 0, mc safety=mc manual, wind 0,
goto mode)? In case where everything is set to straight
line the arrival height and the final glide bar value are
the same as expected. However once you set to turning or
terrain avoid. differences occur (assuming terrain height
unequal to 0).
2) Same as above, but now with wind unequal to 0. Here
the final glide bar shows a lower value than the arrival
height display. That I don't understand, since I also
expected the values to be equal (straigth line). Could
you explain this too please?
3) How to turn off the thermal profile (blue blob above
the glide bar)?
4) With my IPAQ 3870 I used to be able to "drop markers"
by pressing left on the central button. It doesn't work
any more (used to work in 6.09)?
5) How to turn off / on gestures?
6) How to turn off / on safety lock?
7) Could you please share your experience with the wind
calculation (my setting: circling, since I get the gps
from flarm with no air speed data)? It seemed, that in
comparison to my LX7000 (wind: comb - zigzag and circling)
the values differed quite a lot and more than in the past
during circling. However it could also been caused by the
many wind shifts due to nearby thunderstorms and therefore
I am not entirely sure.
Sorry for the many questions - I love XCSoar and use it
since version 4.2. and I just like to be able to explain
the behavior of the glide calculator in order to estimate
the impact of the many input parameters.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers
Sascha
