Thermal Assistant Mode 

 

The  Thermal  Assistant mode displays a graphical representation of your location within the 
thermal.  If you are thermaling to the left, there will be an aircraft symbol on the right of the 
ring of bubbles and the bubbles will appear to rotate clockwise (towards the symbol of the 
glider).  If you are in a right-hand thermal there will be an aircraft symbol on the left and the 
ring of bubbles will appear to rotate anticlockwise (towards the symbol of the glider).  Large 
red  bubbles  indicate  the  strongest  lift  within  the  thermal  and  small  blue  dots  indicate  the 
weakest lift or sink within the thermal.  Yellow bubbles indicate lift equal to your MacCready 
setting, average thermal or average climb rate depending on your preferred setting (refer to 
Chapter 5.7.8.6.1).  The point of strongest lift is indicated by a white large bubble.  
 
You can use the  thermal assistant to visually  determine which part of the  thermal has the 
strongest lift and adjust your turn accordingly to manoeuvre the glider in the direction of the 
strongest lift and away from the weakest lift or sink. 
 
The thermaling assistant can be set to automatically change to the Thermal assistant mode 
or it can be manually selected.  See Chapter 5.7.8.6.2 for settings. 
 
The  two  navboxes  within  the  Thermal  Assistant  Mode  can  be  configured  using  the  quick 
access menu. If 

HAWK 

option is activated, the 

HAWK 

parameters can be used for these two 

navboxes as well. 
 

 

This page can be configured via: Setup->graphics->modes->thermal mode. 

 

Look out of the cockpit!  
Looking into thermal assistant might be life-threatening for you and other pilots in 
the thermal. 

5.4.1

 

Quick Access Menu 

A short press of the (lower) rotary button activates the Quick Access menu.
