About Lazy Racer
I'm looking for a developer to take over the project. If you feel that you can handle it - drop me a line gleb@surfn.ru
Lazyracer is a racing oriented application that may be used for kitesurfing, snowkiting, windsurfing, yachting or any other type of wind activity. It is capable of showing several parameters such as SOG, COG, TWA, VMG online.
Please read my thoughts about commenting and reviewing on the official web http://surfn.ru/lazyracer/?p=116 =)
There are three modes - Tactical, Navigation and Start timer.
In Tactical mode you can see a polar graph, SOG, COG, TWA, VMG and other parameters.
Navigation mode is plain simple navigation =)
Start timer is an ISAF start procedure 5,4,1,0.
