SkyTrackPro 1.3.4 — On Final Glide Redesign, McCready Speed-to-Fly and New Map Tools
The new SkyTrackPro Version 1.3.4 is now available for
iOS and Android. This release introduces a fully
redesigned On Final Glide banner, a new
McCready speed-to-fly engine with editable glider
polar profiles, an outdoor topo map style, and
several refinements to make flying with SkyTrackPro even smoother.
A smarter final glide, sharper terrain maps and live speed-to-fly
guidance — all in one update.
Redesigned On Final Glide Banner
The old ESS and Goal cards have been replaced by a single, status-aware
On Final Glide banner that stays live and informative
from the moment a final-glide opportunity appears.
- Wind-corrected time-to-go and arrival margin
- Live arrival margin kept up to date even while climbing in thermals
- Status-coloured flag with a clear first-target indicator
- Unified L/D colour bands across the app
- New Final-Glide Simulator to preview every glide
state before takeoff
McCready Speed-to-Fly
SkyTrackPro now includes a full McCready speed-to-fly
engine, helping you fly each glide at its most efficient airspeed for
the conditions.
- Editable glider polar profile per wing
- Live recommended airspeed based on McCready setting and wind
- Tight integration with the new On Final Glide banner
New Outdoor Topo Map Style
A brand-new outdoor topo map style joins the existing
map options, with stronger terrain shading for mountain and XC
environments.
- High-contrast hillshade for ridge and valley reading
- Optimised colours for in-flight visibility
- Available wherever map styles can be selected, including task pages
Thermal & Map Improvements
- User-adjustable thermal map opacity (20–70%)
- Live ground-elevation crosshair on the Task Study map
- Smoother GPS-derived vario that holds its last value across event gaps
- Lower initial flight-map zoom for better situational awareness
- Follow mode decoupled from auto-zoom for more predictable behaviour
- Airspeed derived from ground vector minus wind when no sensor is paired

Foreground Notification Refresh
The Android foreground recording notification now uses a clean
paraglider silhouette, making it instantly
recognisable in the status bar.
