george1966 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Hi, i have been using the air box awares device for quite some time now, great for navigation, air space restrictions etc but a while ago I decided to park my paramotor down on the screen so it's no longer. Air box were very good about it in the respect of sending me the app which I put on my phone but its too small and fiddly can anyone tell me a larger device maybe 7 inch that I can use. I went to pc world to look at some devices but they don't have GPS, I'm not sure how gp's works without running a sim. Cheers in advance for any help.

alan_k Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I've very recently bought the Alcatel A3 XL smartphone, it has all the 4G and GPS capability and runs RunwayHD well. It has a 6 inch screen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george1966 Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 Happy New year Simon, does the iPad mini have some sort of built in GPS system or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jodell Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 There's only GPS in the 3G/4G versions. For the wifi-only ipads, you may be able to get a bluetooth gps receiver to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Hi, I switched from airbox to using Runway HD on my phone....Samsung Note 4, which is large so us older people can see it. I still have my airbox and don't use it!
