+1 for the āzeroā on the ground (and any indication if youāve put in an offset).
Would enable me to finish my triple-3 check! 
(only did 2 test jumps with a One some time ago, and getting my own One next weekend, so not sure if it might implemented already?)

+1 for the burble integration! It would be awesome as a working jumper/fun jumper to have the load timer would be awesome! Also, a gear area to put repack days and how many days until repack would help lazy people like me know im about out of date more than the weekend before!

Altitude offset is being worked on in some of the test firmware at the moment. It will display any offset youāve set in the ground mode and plane modes too

Hi Brent,
How are things going? I am also doing a bit of paragliding and would love to do this with the Dekunu. It has all the hardware you need so it would be cool to make use of the Dekunu on my flights. I see the request was done a year ago but do you have any update on this? Is there anyway you need more input on this from my side?
Talk soon.

First off, I certainly second the paragliding/hang gliding mode and would be happy to be a beta tester for that 
Second, I really like the information you have available on the website for the dropzones, but I think this info would also be helpful:
1: Landing pattern direction(s), which could possibly be calculated as percentages of likelihood, based on data and/or direct input of which direction is used when.
2: Average jumping wind speed/direction (cross-referencing activity with the weather at the time would give a pretty good idea of what to expect)
3: Heat maps of holding areasā¦I know this changes depending on the wind and canopies and such, but could give you some general ideas before-hand
Finally, manual logbook entries would be awesome, to allow the logbook to be more complete, including jumps prior to owning it, and jumps when it was forgotten or the battery was dead, etc to fill in the gaps, rather than just bumping the number. Obviously my logbook appears empty right now, but I have my paper logbook and limited data from my Garmin smartwatch, so it would be nice to do manual entry and even nicer if I could import KML data, etc!
I have yet to actually jump with my Dekunu One, but Iām pretty impressed by the cloud integration so far and look forward to seeing where things go with it in the future!
Keep up the good work!
Hey @buzz_lightyear - yes it has been a while since this was worked on. A quick update, we developed some prototype firmware and I personally tested it paragliding and paramotoring. Super excting and lots of potential with it. We had a lot of fun working on the different UI and how it would log and analyse differently to skydiving. Also having the luxury of not needing such high data rates was great for battery performance. So we havenāt been actively developing this for a while for a number of reasons. We had a lot of skydiving specific features to work on and we didnāt want to be spreading our firmware development resources too thin.
The other reason (and the biggest blocker currently) is allocating resources to entering a new sport. This includes the legal requirements, certification, federation relationship building, analysing rules/regulations for these sports around the world, identifying and completely understanding the implications of selling products in this sport. Entering the skydiving world was a huge undertaking and we are focused heavily there. Entering the paragliding/paramotoring/hanggliding world officially will be just as big and again, we donāt want to neglect our commitments to the skydiving world.
Rest assured, the Dekunu One will be a multi sport device at some stage. As always, this will include backward compatibility for ALL devices since day 1 of selling as free software upgrades. When the time comes, we will be looking for public beta testers and you will definitely be on that list.
Hey @SkySrfr - please see my above post regarding the paragliding feature.
In response to your questions
- Yes it could. However, somewhat unreliable to roll out globally considering the individual rules, trade winds, changes of seasons etc. I think a better solution to this would be to encourage drop zones to update their dropzone āfeaturesā to show the landing patterns. This is currently available to them and we are working on an effective communication strategy to better educate them how to do so.
- Great idea. How would you like to see this implemented? Maybe when viewing the dropzone in the cloud as a table or graphical indicator for that time of year?
- Similar concerns as point 1 but again the same solution, a dropzone could add their recommended holding areas to the dropzone map features.
- Manual log book entriesā¦ weāve discussed this one previously and for sure it is possible. Just not convinced on the value outweighing the potential downfall. One of the great things about the Dekunu logbook is that it is unable to be modified. The data is reliable. It canāt be easily forged. We do, however, have a feature about to roll out allowing users to import/export their FlySight logs.
Thanks for getting in touch

Glad to hear you guys are still working on and testing the paragliding/paramotoring stuff, but I totally understand being focused on the primary sport as the priority.
Iām partial to the heat map way of looking at things, but can understand that getting overly cluttered or confusing. Possibly a cardinal direction circle around/over the satellite view with wind directions appearing as a heat map, weighted based on speed, and an additional āavg jumping wind speedā numerical value in the table?
I hadnāt really thought of manual logbook entries from a perspective of logbook data being 100% reliable/trustworthy. I suppose that makes sense, itās just surprising after using so many other various logbook systems that have no problem doing that. Could this not be resolved by just differentiating manual/modified entries from real ones? That way, if itās a matter of currency, records, license upgrades, etc, someone could say āYour logbook here says you are current, but your last jump was manually entered, can I see your physical logbook for that jump, please?ā
I definitely understand those hard decisions better now, thanks for the quick reply!
If it hasnāt already been mentioned:
-Ability to turn off messages (like unfastening buckle and checking pilot chute) and/or customize when the turn on. Most of my drop zones have been 1500 feet for belts but your message comes on at 1000.
-Going with the pre-āzeroā that others have mentioned and Iām another lover off, add a āforceā feature to start the jump and n the plane wit an āon planeā feature that we could select which would start that timer and give us the āzeroā Alti and speed checks we want.
Thanks, youāre awesome.

Hi @Bearnessi
Thanks for your suggestions! all have been fed back.
I have also changed the seatbelt safety announcement for the 3 dropzones you frequent to 1500ft, you will need to refresh the DZ info in your device settings for the changes to take effect.
Menu > Jump Config > Dropzones > Change Dropzone > Refresh icon (top right corner) > Select your DZ again
If you need any more changing, drop them in this thread Dropzone Seatbelt Altitudes
Thanks and Happy New Year!
@Tracy, I know it has been mentioned before and I saw some replies of āItās currently in the works,ā a while ago, but am just curious: are there any updates on making certain jump pages public/sharing them on social media? Thanks!
Hey @SkySrfr do you mean particular jumps like the 3D viz etc.? Social media sharing is on the roadmap, no ETA on that at the moment but we will most likely post on the forum and maybe on social media once it has been developed and rolled out to stay tuned

I think any amount of information sharing would be useful, but sharing the visualization stuff would be excellent! Looking forward to that one, thanks!

Hey Hey, just finished updating my jump logs from yesterday.
When adding a gear type to the jump can one only select 1 item in a category? (e.g. I added a wingsuit to a jump but it adds multiple wingsuits (all the category to the jump)
Hereās my feature request: Could one select only one item in a category?
and yes I know that one can delete the extra ones its added in the action afterā¦ its just a extra step thatās not necessaryā¦
@Wotan I just want to clarify, when you set up your equipment groups, did you create a group with multiple wingsuits in it? How groups are supposed to work is to a) enter your equipment items like canopy, rig, suit etc. then b) create groups and add equipment items to the groups based on what you regularly jump. More info here on that. If you have done all of this correctly but multiple wingsuits are showing up on your action there could be a bug, please take a screenshot and post it here so i can investigate

I noticed on the update that I just did there is a greyed out paragliding mode.
Any idea on when this will be going live? What will be in it? and If looking for people to potentially test run it prior to full release?
Hi all, been looking for a way to add an equipment group into another equipment group and realised this may be a new feature request.
Basically I would like a group Rig (for the container, main, reserve, aad etc) and others for Summer / Winder / Camera / etc. Then to be able to add Rig to the other groups to keep the items managed together.
Adding here for reference and consideration
