Just a teaser, lol, almost there, version 0.16 is coming soon...
Need to make some final compilations and distrubution zip files, and upload everything. The website needed to grow a bit with the application, but it stayed clean and simple.

That went smooth: HeliPort version 0.16 is now online.
New are the data modules "Tailbelts" and "Electrical wires", and the tool "Battery calculator". In other words, only the "Flight logger" and "Battery logger" need to be developed. That will be version 0.17, probably the last one before we jump to a first final release version 1.00. And I ugraded the website a bit, enjoy, no more programming for me tonight...

Normal use is having the tacho do the recording. The mic should work of course. The added feature of "feeding" a "tacho.wav" file to the tacho works also perfectly, at least as far as we know. But then you must not push "record", this will overwrite your file ! Only "RPM" to make the calculations. Might need some more details, what have you done until now, step by step ? Mobile or desktop version ? Or send me your non-working wave file, and I'll help you out in no time, I can analyze it further, and see what's wrong, it won't take long, and we'll help you out. Edit: if the tacho says to try again, then you mean the "weak signal message" ? Means that the sound volume is extremely low, something must be very wrong with your file, does it at least sound like a running heli at a somewhat normal volume ?

yes i have 'weak signal' message...
i'm trying to record a file that i converted from a vid i made of my ATOM from mpeg to wav. in the first 10 seconds i spool up and let it sit on the ground for a few seconds, perfect for measuring the HS. ! i just now also tried to just only push the rpm button while playing the wav. file on my mediaplayer but no result... where can i send my file to so you could take a look at it ? thanks for the help btw !

The emailadres is in the about box of HeliPort, and also on the website, I don't mention it here to avoid spam caused by webbots.It starts with 'heliport', followed by the usual domain name.
I don't understand why you are playing the wave file in the mediaplayer while hitting the RPM button, it is absolutely unnecessary, and can only give problems, as Windows will have the file locked for use in the mediaplayer, and I don't know if HeliPort will be able to get access in the same time. In short: get a normal sounding wave file, in the format as described in the help. Call it "tacho.wav", copy it to the HeliPort folder, and hit the "RPM" button". BTW, you can also zip the file, and post it in this thread as an attachment ! And if you would trust me enough to send me a mail with your phone number or so, I will even gladly call you, we're both in Belgium and Dutch speaking I guess. We'll help you fast, it worked hundreds of times without a glitch, we are simply missing something here, can't be hard to find. And call me Raf, that's my real name

Hope to hear you soon !!! Really like to hear about the Atom 6HV, was thinking about getting one myself this summer. On the other hand, waiting a bit longer for the 7HV doesn't sound like a bad idea either, lol. Edit: got your mail, you'll get a reply today probably, thanks !

Hi there,
Just to say thanks,,, I installed this great software yesterday (version 0.16) on my notebook and Omnia I900 GSM. Very simpel installation, i just would like to have some shortlink to my programs folder in my menu.. My omnia runs WM 6.5 OS and i really miss the exit function on the heliport. Now i need to use the taskmanager to shutdown the heliport. I used the Heli port om my GL450Ct witch is an early KDS 450 C version. It has an 3550 KV motor running on 3S lipo and 13T pinion on 90% throttle It gave me over 3100 rpm on the tacho check witch seems to be a bit high I measured 4 different times with different distance but same values.. Looking forward to get the next version.. And tanks again for the great work.. Benno |

1) I make shortlinks by first installing a free extension for the File Explorer in my Win Mobile 6.1. It is called "fexploreext.cab", it is easy to find with Google or so. This extension allows you to rightclick and hold any .exe file, and make a shortcut immediately to your program folder. 2) You're not the first to ask for a dedicated exit button, no problem, I'll add one in the main screen in the next release, it's not much work. 3) Allow me to add a few considerations to your headspeed values: were you hovering or standing on the ground (blades are "overspeeding" then because of the lack of drag) ? A fresh lipo or not ? An extreme example: on the ground at 100% throttle, with a 12,6 Volt fresh pack, with your setup: Headspeed = 12,6 * 13 /150 * 0.85 * 3550 = 3295 RPM, would be 2903 RPM for an average RPM (11.1 Volt value for 3S lipo). And remember that ESCs don't have a linear curve internally, 90% throttle is not the same as 90% headspeed. My Beam with a similar setup (3595 kV motor) runs 3169 RPM at only about 80% throttle on the ground. So your findings make a lot of sense to me, I see no problem, your value of 3100 RPM seems absolutely correct. When in doubt anyway, zip and post your wave file, I'll do some extended analyzes for you. But I'm sure it is ok what you did. There are many weird stories about headspeed out there, lol.

Just a small anouncement:
The little red medical helicopter, symbol of the HeliPort application, is offically paid for and licensed by us. Just to be sure there are no misunderstandings about that, we use it in a perfectly legal way, according to the license, with the written approval of the original designer. And that includes distributing the picture in the application for example. In fact, I liked it so much I even ordered larger size hi-res pictures. Don't ask me why for now.
