PPGpS Lite: A Flight Computer for Pilots
PPGpS Lite is a free lifestyle app designed for pilots, specifically for those who fly paramotors, paragliders, gliders, or ultra-light planes. It provides real-time flight information, wind direction and speed estimation, takeoff and landing phases auto-detection, return home information, fuel calculation and warning, airspace display, emergency geo-localized SMS, localization with GPS, barometric sensor support to improve altitude accuracy, online and offline maps, rotating map, and much more.
The app's instruments include altitude, vario, bearing, magnetic compass, acceleration, and ground speed. You can switch between different data modes with just one click on instruments, and the altimeter can be set to actual altitude or elevation (QHN, QFE) just by long-pressing on the altimeter. PPGpS Lite also allows you to create waypoints by tapping on the map or by entering their GPS coordinates, follow the displayed route, and import your KML files. However, some features are missing in the Lite version, such as log flights in KML/IGC format, waypoint management, airspace display, QNH/QFE altimeter setting, Android Wear smartwatches via PPGpS Wear compatibility, and display instruments on your Android Wear SmartWatch.
