G1 Phone - Artificial Horizon

[spicejetter]

I got a G1 Phone last week - which is amazing! I saw on youtube a guy with a G1 with an arificial horizon on it. Anyone know what application it is on on Market? I've searched on applications, but can't seem to find it. I don't intend on shooting an approach with it - but it would be a cool toy!

I don't *mean* to be smartass, apologies if it comes across that way - but "artificial horizon" is a small line on a much larger instrument.

Try searching under "attitude indicator" (though I just typed "G1 attitude indicator" into Google and got nothing worthwhile back - though it was a *very* quick scan of titles [I'm busy]).

I already tried those - no joy :-( Also plane instruments, pilot instruments and even attitude selector (incase it the app was built by a complete ass) - anything and everything but still no joy!

Perhaps the app has been removed :-(

Artificial Horizon Simulator


I know it's not an 'artificial horizon' simulator, that's just what the link came up as when i posted it...

This is an animation that simulates Artificial Horizon as seen in airplanes using the phone's accelerometer.

Well, as long as no luckless soul whips that out when their instruments fail in IMC. We've already got accelerometers installed in our head-bones, and strangely, they always stop working in cloud.


(not really stop working, but you know what I mean.)
