The Element Track, formerly known as the Element is identical in every way to the Element except for the printing on the housing. The name was changed to allow for additional models in the Element series. The Element Track is the perfect blend of functionality, size, weight, ruggedness, battery life and user-friendliness. The Element Track is truly the best all-around instrument for hang gliding and paragliding pilots that want to fly higher, further, safer and faster or simply just want to get more out of their flights.Altitude and Climb/Sink indication in unsurpassed Flytec qualityVirtually unlimited waypoints and flight recordingConventional and race routes with optimized race routes in developmentHighly tactile keypad that is simple to operate, even with gloves onAirspace warningsConnection with any computer, without any software installationSuper easy firmware updatesTechnical Specifications GeneralRobust, shockproof ABS housing, matte black with green trimTactile keypad with glove-friendly keys, high-contrast displayDimensions: 138 x 74 x 23 mmWeight: 178 g (including Batteries)Power supply: 2x AA batteries (Alkaline or NiMH accumulators)Battery life: ~35 hOperating temperature: 14ºF to 122ºF or -10°C to 50°CLanguages: English, German, French Italian, SpanishAltimeterUnits: m / ftResolution: 1 m or 1 ftRange: up to 40,354 ft or12,300 mQNH: air pressure indication in hPa or in HgALT 1: Absolute altitudeALT 2: Choice of absolute or relative altitudeALT 3: Altitude difference or altitude above ground (in development)VariometerUnits: m/s or fpmGraphic indication: ±2000 ft/min. or ±10 m/sGraphic resolution: 40 ft/min. or 0.2 m/sNumeric indication: ±30,000 ft/min or ±300 m/sNumeric resolution; 10 ft/min or 0.1 m/sAverager: selectable from 1 s to 30 sAcousticsVolume: 4 levelsVario profiles: Five predefined (weak, regular, strong, ridge soaring, balloon) - individually adjustableClimb tone: selectable lower threshold, frequency and cadence modulationNear-thermal tone: selectable lower threshold and volume adjustmentSink tone: selectable upper threshold and volume adjustmentStall alarm: selectable threshold (requires optional airspeed sensor)Additional vario adjustments: Base frequency, and modulationAirspeedRequires optional sensorUnits: kph, knots, mphRange: 0 to 74mph or 0 to 120 kph, resolution 1 mph, km/h, ktCalibration: ±50%GPSGPS-Receiver with 48 channelsPosition determination at 1 HzWaypointsCapacity: 200 waypointsEntry: Store current position, manual entry, load waypoints from fileCoordinate formats: dd.ddddd, dd’mm.mm , dd’mm’ss , UTM (in development)File formats: CompeGPS (.wpt) , GEO (.wpt) , Ozi Explorer (.wpt) , SeeYou (.cup), GPX (.gpx)Easily manage waypoint lists for each flying siteRoutesCapacity: 1 route, with up to 50 waypointsEntry: Selection from waypoints listRace route: Start time, number of start gates, exit or enter start, start gate interval with start assistantOptimized race route: In developmentNavigationGoto: direction graphic with numeric heading and distance to waypointRoute: manual or automatic advancement of waypointGraphic direction to next and subsequent waypoint, numeric direction and distance to next waypointOptimized race routes: shortest way to goal through all turnpoint cylinders (in development)Speed over groundCurrent glide ratio (L/D)Required glide ratio (L/D) to next turnpointWind: direction graphic, and numeric direction and speedLast thermal: graphic and numeric direction and distanceUnits for distance: km or milesAirspaceIndication of direction and distance to nearest restricted airspaceIndication of elevation to airspace above/below (in development)Acoustic and visual warning before entering restricted airspaceGraphic navigation aid for quickest exit of restricted airspaceRecordingInternal logbook: 50 flights: date, start time, duration, max altitude, max climb and sink rateFlight recording in IGC format and Google Earth .kml (in development)Recording interval: 1 s to 60 sRecord time: 100,000 hours at standard recording interval (10s)PC ConnectionMicro-USB connectorNo connection driver/software requiredCompatible with Windows, OSX, Linux, Android (through OTG cable)Drag and drop file exchange (flights, waypoints, airspace)
Further developmentThe Element keeps getting better. Over the next months, we will continue developing the software and adding new features. Your feedback will make a difference there.
