Sporty's E6B Flight Computer

Calculator for pilots

Published by: Sporty's Pilot Shop

Description

Based on Sporty’s popular handheld E6B Electronic Flight Computer, the E6B app has been designed from the ground up to make the most of iOS on the iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, and MacOS on Apple Computers. The software is based on the tried and true formulas and algorithms developed over the years by Sporty’s team of over 50 pilots.
Its pilot-friendly design makes quick work of any navigational, conversion or fuel problem and it also performs conventional arithmetic calculations.

The advanced timer/clock feature simultaneously tracks Zulu, Local and Home time zones. The timer counts either up or down, and will display an alert when reaching zero.

Cold weather correction

Erkspeed on

Canada

Would be nice if there’s a cold temperature correction for DA and MDA.

Needs more flexibility with Formulas!

Supersonicclank on

Canada

Overall great app and ecosystem. My only criticism is that I wish there was more flexibility when it comes to formulas. What I mean is… example: for Rate of Climb calculation, I can input my ground speed and the min climb to get my required rate of climb… but I cannot get my min climb if I know my ground speed and my required rate of climb. I’d like to be able to input into that required rate of climb box but it is locked. Can you guys make it so we can input in cases like this? There’s a few different calculations that would benefit from this… Otherwise great app, and love the watch app too but same question as above!

Watch features very disappointing

Frankthetank229 on

I love the features available on the iphone version and assumed that I would be able to use the same ones on the watch. Only the conversion are available on the watch which is pretty useless. If they decide to add the other features to the watch then that app would get a 5 star rating easily!

It's OK but has only very basic functions. Version 2.0 looks much better than the original.

More units please

Looking for calculations in kg for fuel not just pounds!

Nothing changed

Callmemr1234 on

Still very laggy , calculator touch button not responsive enought, TOO BASIC for that price !!!! Def. NOT worth the 10$ . Avoid it

Hardly worth the time, let alone the cash

Too many things simply don't work properly on this app. Save your money...

It's lacking in significant areas

SkyQuest172 on

Canada

All the necessary functions are there but it's a basic no-frills E6B. One technical problem is that you often have to tap numbers a couple times to get them to register. It's frustrating. The weight & balance doesn't store the info so you have to re-enter all values from scratch each time you use it. This combined with no graph display for W&B was a BIG dissappointment and means I won't use it. Come on how much does it take for the app to store the W&B arm and moment values and last entered weights?? All functions are pure text such as W&B as well as Crosswind which is sad given the potential for an iPhone app to display information graphically. Even some of the free E6B apps have this. No weather! The free app I've previously used can pull down the latest METAR's. Remember guys you are building this app for a device that has an Internet connection! It has a calculator function but no Memory key. When was the last time you saw a calculator without a memory function? That's just silly! You also can't do time calculations ie 04:36:00 - 00:46:16 = ?? that would be really handy! I can't count the number of times I've struggled to add or subtract a series of hh:mm:ss in my head for logging purposes. Timer is just a single simple count up/down timer. No way to have an overall time, with time for the current leg. If you want to time the flight and have a hold timer ... you can't do both at the same time. The count down timer alarm will go off even if you've moved to another area of the E6B which is useful but it would be nice if the alarm provided a vibrate function because you can't hear it at all in the cockpit. It doesn't remember the last function used. Everytime you start the app it takes you to the Pressure Density Altitude function. I would expect it to either remember the last screen used, or at the very least to be able to choose my start screen through a preferences option. Is it worth $4.99, not in my opinion because you can get free or paid E6B apps that do the same things better. However this is a version 1.0 so I'm really hoping that Sporty's will improve it because it has real potential and a nicer interface than most of the others.

No weight and balance calculations!

YOLOMBIA on

United States

I literally bought this app to save time doing the weight and balance calculations but they are not in this the app. Can I get my money back?

Would be great to have conversion factors and formulas viewable

The Pyrotech on

United States

The calculator does what you’d expect, but it’d be nice to have a toggle to see the conversion factors and formulas used for some of the calculations for reference.
