SkyDroid from Sky River Software is an advanced E6B replacement for the modern aviator. What sets SkyDroid apart from other E6B replacement apps?Simplicity. Ease of use. Design with the cockpit environment in mind.Many flight computer apps have lots of rarely used functions scattered across many confusing pages. It's often hard to figure out how to do a simple calculation on the ground, much less in a busy cockpit.Designed by a CFI and aerospace engineer, SkyDroid keeps the complexity to a minimum and displays just the information you need in a clean, direct interface. SkyDroid doesn't try to wow you with obscure capabilities you'll never use on an actual flight. With SkyDroid, it's not what it can do that's special, it's how it does it.SkyDroid displays the important E6B flight parameters, organized within a few simple categories. All the relevant information is visible at any given time. Simply provide your flight parameters via a straightforward, reliable calculator interface, tell SkyDroid what you want to compute based on clear on-screen buttons, and press GO. SkyDroids sophisticated physics models display precise results instantly. Even if you are interrupted or distracted mid-calculation, SkyDroids clear visual feedback makes it easy to pick up where you left off.Whether you are a student pilot or an ATP, sometimes all you need is an E6B. SkyDroid is the E6B for today's flight bag, only better. With a little practice, SkyDroid delivers basic flight parameter computations easier, faster, and more accurately than the original that's something few apps can claim.SkyDroid Features:- All the commonly used E6B functions plus more- A carefully crafted design focused on superior usability in demanding cockpit environments- High fidelity physics models engineered to deliver superior accuracy over a much wider range of conditions than a standard E6B, as well as many other alternative devices and applications- Guaranteed compatibility with the vast majority of Android phones and tablets*- Responsive, unlimited technical support readily available for help with questions or problems- Comprehensive documentation available on our websiteFor a limited time, buy SkyDroid and receive our upcoming enhanced flight calculator, SkyDroid+, for no additional charge upon its release in Q2 2012. Perfect for those who need a tool with more features than a standard E6B, SkyDroid+ builds upon SkyDroid's modular architecture. For more information on SkyDroid+ and its features, visit the SkyDroid+ page at our website at http://skyriversoftware.com/skydroid-2/Additional information on SkyDroid, including the SkyDroid User Guide, can be found at our website by visiting:http://skyriversoftware.com* Note to tablet users: SkyDroid is designed to work with all common tablets. Currently the app functions in "giant phone" mode - the display is similar to that presented using smart phones, only larger. At the current time SkyDroid only supports portrait orientation display. This provides a very easy to use interface and is perfect for flight schools and others who would like to demonstrate E6B computations on a large display. An upcoming free maintenance release of SkyDroid will provide an additional tablet-optimized display mode to make fuller use of the available screen.Content rating: Everyone
