Hello,

Is there a good software application for reading tracklogs out of Flymaster?
Something with a friendly UI, something that can read all tracklogs at once.
Also, interested in saving .igc (not only .kml).

Yeah I've got my eye on it too.  Would love to connect the X to the C.

Well, “friendly UI” is not its strong point, but GPS Dump is generally the tool of choice:

it will save IGC and KML

And if you want to convert formats, GPSBabel is a very useful tool. 

I use it from the command line, but there is a UI version for Windows. The Mac UI version is a bit out of date and may not run on latest OS versions:

I used to use GPSDump.
Got its source code and compiled for my Linux distro.
Even wrote a shell script to automate the download process.
It worked well with Garmin 76S on Linux... years ago.

Today I've tried using it on windows with Flymaster Nav.
I can download individual (single) tracklogs but only as .kml files and when I try to download multiple tracklogs at once, I get "Time gap between tracks greater than 3600" error message.

GPSDump seems to have different features for different instrument makes and models.

Just installed GPS Babel and Flymaster is not on the (dropdown) list of input devices.

Looking a bit windy for my tastes but prob great for the hang?  Early looks better but I'm on the fence.

 I'm walking up from the river right now at 9:20am. Light east 3-5 mph at the LZ and launch. Perfect condition for paragliders at the moment. Supposed to get stronger later.

Thanks, Rick.  That was the inspiration/kick in the pants I was lacking.  See you in a bit.
