Loaded the app on my Samsung Galaxy SIII mini without problem. I have not had the chance to try it in flight but it appears to work well at ground level in the car although I did have a bit of difficulty climbing to 1300ft to avoid an obstruction!

One issue that I did notice was that the altitude was consistently overstated by around 150 ft - not knowing enough about these things I don't know if this is an Android issue, my phone issue or something else. Other gps apps on my phone also overstate by a similar amount and I have seen similar results on a Nexus 4 whereas on an iPad the altitude is within 20 feet or so similar to the performance of my Garmin 296.

I have SD loaded and working on my HTC One. It's fantastic. Blisteringly fast on a quad core 1.7mhz processor and very clear, and a tidy size in cockpit. A Nexus 7 will shortly replace my oversized iPad, but in the meanwhile this is a great supplementary device. Only issue so far is that the fonts are too big despite being set to the lowest level on a very high resolution screen (470 ppi)

Would it be a good idea to move this thread to the "Navigation section" of the forum ? Soon it will cease to be a "Beta discussion" any more.

I also noticed that at first on my HTC Sensation and Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. It seems to have been fixed in the latest beta (dated 20th March), as has the crashing on the Galaxy Tab 2.

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a suitable mount for a Nexus 7 that can clamp to some metal tubing (with diameter of less than a cm) and that has a short arm.

Cheers
