New heads up altimeter w/GPS

Recommended Posts

Go to the Alti-2 web site and check out the TITAN

This could be really cool for us wingsuit flyers it would show you rate of descent to help fine tune body position.

Not out yet but hopefully soon

It would mostly be a vanity purchase and I am vane!

Check it out.

This response is not directed towards anyone inparticular.

While everyone is trashing this device think of the benefits of being able to fine tune and I mean FINE tune body position as to allow greatest forward speed and slow vertcal decent as much as possible.


I realize that this can be felt but I think you could maximize more if you were able to see vertical decent and forward speed without changing body position to look.

It would just be a bad ass toy to have

Looks like you'll be the first to buy one then right Glen? ;)

Probably not the first but..... I would in a heart beat if they could also include a small LCD monitor for real time video viewing. Not so much for the practicality of it, but for the fact it would drive Quade crazy everytime he sees it. I'm sure JP would use that same feature to moniter the flock thats behind him when he is the rabbit.

Another developement could be an infra red or laser targeting system with receivers mounted on your opponents wingsuits for a real aircombat wingsuit eddition. That would keep those wayward flockers from trying to adapt paintball guns to wingsuits or helmets.

I only see good things from this. Whats the worst that can happen?

Roger(alti-2) and I spoke about this and a few other things in the works at WFFC this year. Expect more improvements in this and other products as time goes on.

Some details for "Roger" ,prsident of alti -2.

Ove:

Could it be used with open face helmet and goggles?
- Yes

What about base functions as the protrack, ie jumping from a 1400 feet bigwall and setting the alti to that?
- We do not test our altimeters for BASE use - but there is no technical reason why it could not be used this way

Could it be made less "Snag hassardious", like curved along the helmet?
- The production mount design is much smoother and enclosed

Any idea about prize with or without gps?
- We will release prcing info later in tghe year

Will it show horisontal speed?
- Yes, as long as you have the GPS option

Warning bleeps?
- I suggest you use a Neptune for this function, a TITAN audible peripheral is not at the top of the development list

pc interface?
- YES

When can i order!
- We will be releasing this item for sale in the summer.

Roger


Do, or do not. There is no try.
