Displaying Speed of Targets on Map

[Lanshark]

My foreflight iPad shows the speed of targets when you tap on the airplane on the map. A friend of mine has Garmin in his RV-10. Garmin does the same thing. It's really useful when coming into a busy traffic pattern to be able to match speeds to work into the pattern.

Will Dynon support this feature on their map? I submitted a ticket with support asking about this. They said they would like management know about it.

What is the proper way to request a "feature" add? I would think this request would be a great feature and easy to add.

I would love to have that on my HDX. When I see converging traffic on my HDX screen I usually then look at my iPad to get the target's speed so I can decide the best course of action to avoid it.

You know that the arrow on the traffic is variable, depending on speed, and shows the projected position of the aircraft in 1 minute, right?

I understand that but I still like to know if I'm dealing with an aircraft that has similar speeds as mine or if I can easily out run it

Yes, I know about the arrow but it's nice when you are following another plane into an airport that you can quickly match their speed.

I frequently tap on a traffic icon, then remember that Skyview doesn't do that.
So I pick up the iPad, open FlyQ, tap on the traffic and see all the information.
That info was passed on from the Dynon via WiFi, so I know it's in there.
Would like to be able to display additional info about traffic targets on the Dynon Skyview screen..
