iPhone 4 Gyroscope Aircraft Attitude Indicator (a.k.a Artificial Horizon). This app uses the "real" Gyroscope built into the iPhone 4, so it is much more accurate than the older apps without Gyro access (accelerometer only).
Watch the smooth and fluid motion of the real iPhone Gyroscope as a pitch and roll airplane attitude indicator!
I am an instrument rated Airplane Pilot and a Helicopter Pilot, I designed this app for a fun demonstration of how flight instruments in a real airplane work.
Even for non Pilots its a blast! and kids will love to turn the iPhone in every direction and watch the sky and ground roll and pitch around!
Runs in landscape mode for the full size screen and motion, high resolution retina display graphics!
Also great for flight school instruction and demonstration of the iPhone 4 gyroscope.
* For detailed technical information on why its so hard to make this work in airplane flight (seems like it should be easy right?) please see the support website for the history and reason - under the tab for this app *
Note for Pilots : Although I am flight testing and fine tuning the air mode code each weekend, after finding the "stock" gyroscope code did not work in aircraft (always read wings level even with gyroscope output), it must be clear this is still NOT FAA APPROVED and should not be depended upon for flight. As a fellow Pilot, I am also excited about having the iPhone 4 gyroscope work in airplanes, however, for now its experimental use only. I am improving the operation in the air at every release, and its getting better, but still needs work. I intend to keep working on it until its the best it can possibly be in the air.
For non Pilots, or Pilots using this for ground instruction, it works flawlessly with the Gyroscope on the ground. And is perfect for instruction or fun. The stock iPhone 4 Gyroscope code is smooth as silk on the ground, make sure you do not use "AIR MODE ON" for ground use/instruction. Air mode will seem erratic on the ground, it depends on the G forces and compass changes in flight to work.
