Hi Everyone, I’ve been wondering about using a heads up display. does anyone have any experience with that? I found this: > https://www.digitaltrends.com/outdoors/usee-bicycle-helmet-hud/
would love to get something like that happening. anyone interested?
Looks like the data has to go through their proprietary app (which isn’t rated too great). Cool concept though!
Note: if anyone is interested in custom applications like this and willing to donate hardware to hack on I’m more than happy to help integrate with OpenPPG
Appreciated your linked video, lanata. I have a 3-yr old Garmin watch that’s been relegated to my top drawer since I moved to Samsung Gear. I may dust the Garmin off and try StuFly with it when I take up PPG this winter.
Have you tried StuFly personally? Impressions?

Haven’t tried it. I am at the same stage as you. I was just starting to buy equipment when I saw it and thought “that was lucky” hence the share. Here’s an update: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrdUqG-cjP8

I love StuFly, and I use it to record every flight. That said, I have to stare a fair bit to read numbers like altitude while flying. I really like the idea of a heads-up display.
OOOH…Good point, slinger. I’m old enough that readers are often required to see the smaller display bits on my watch. I’ll give it a try, though. I already have a compatible watch, so “the price is right.”
