3. Next time you start SeeYou Mobile you will have
two (or more) profiles to choose from. You have 10
seconds to select a profile. If you do nothing, the
profile you used last is loaded.
4. After you have loaded the profile for the first time
you will want to set it up according to your
preferences. Here is a handful of settings you will
probably want to change before use:
Links to Terrain, Airspace and Waypoint files
Pilot name and Glider type settings
Hardware that is connected to SeeYou Mobile
Navboxes for Map1
Navboxes for Map2
(they are separate,
remember?)

3.2 Set takeoff altitude
Setting the takeoff altitude correctly could be the difference between a successful and a frustrating end
of the flight.
An Oudie 2 without being connected to an external source of pressure data will only use GPS altitude.
There is little to nothing you can do with that and this is the reason why such flights are ok to record the
joy and excitement about the flight but are insufficient to provide proof or staying outside official airspace
regardless if this is in a competition or on a record flight.
Oudie IGC and Oudie 2 connected to an external source of pressure data will record extremely accurate
altitudes. The altitude in the Oudie IGC and all other IGC approved flight recorders is recorded at the
standard pressure of 1013.25 hPa. In order to know you current altitude above mean sea level and your
current flight level altitude the altitudes need to be corrected to correspond with the real world.
There are several ways how Oudie / SeeYou Mobile can correct the takeoff altitude. It will typically
assume that the pressure recorded by the pressure sensor is relative to the standard atmosphere
pressure of 1013.25 hPa (but it is even possible to correct for that, see below). It is quite possible to
correct the altitudes to QNH automatically with the data which is available to Oudie. If you get the from
