Nav Trainer Pro for Negative User Reviews

✓ Please Update$5 is a lot of money for an app that hasn't been updated to work with the new iOS.The Code KidVersion: 3.3.0

✓ Over pricedGood for showing the very basics, though far to over priced for the little amount of information you receive..Mickoc_123Version: 3.2.0

✓ Good practise, bad trainerThis app is great for playing with different scenarios but does not actually explain or show you how to use the navigation geatures. Great if you want more practise in using VOR and other instruments, but not so much if you dont already know how..FlyCanadianGuyVersion: 3.3.0

✓ A Very Poor AppAfter having this app go black on me, I got it going again be deleting and reloading it..Tiger ownerVersion: 3.2.0

✓ NO NDBWhere is the NDB? All it has is two VOR.ChaputiVersion: 3.3.0

✓ Good, could be Great!Currently training in NDB's, so bought this app to help train. While good at understanding intercepts and drift angles, a few things could be done better. As 99% of people using it will be doing approaches, it would be good if instead of turning the heading indicator (highly unrealistic and un-natural), you could tap on a left or right arrow to enter a rate 1 turn. And then what is desperately required is a heading bug that can be set independent of current heading. Do these, and it becomes a vital, and 5/5 app!.PtrgVersion: 3.0.1

✓ CFI-I Review (Updated)Nav Trainer 3.4.1 IPad Pro 9.7 v.11.1.2 • Settings > Instruments “BIG \/ SMALL” does not work. • Motion sensors still changes heading at warp speed. Absolutely useless. • If you are going to provide an option for turning via the motions sensors, use an algorithm which works similar to a real control wheel/yoke. [Ref. X-Plane 10 for iPad] • Add delay variable when rolling in/out of standard rate. [Ref. VOR Tracker] • Based upon most textbooks (FAA, Jeppesen, ASA, Rod Machado, etc.) and typical training aircraft with ‘standard’ instrument configurations, the HI should be either on top or bottom—not in the middle of the NAV instruments. If you disagree, make the option to place any instrument in any of the tree locations. [Ref. IFR Trainer] • My guess, however I could be wrong, it’s general aviation students/pilots or CFIs using this app. Having to press twice to achieve a standard rate of 3 degrees per second is distractive. Put an option in Settings to set the default to match the pilot’s preference. ! Based upon the Law of Primacy, train the student’s eyes, motions, and thinking (even with simple trainers) according to norms/standards from the very beginning. Negative Transfer of Learning is expensive! “It’s an iPad typically held in the left/right hand” is a poor excuse. ! “This is not a flight simulator” is not an excuse for making something that could have been made otherwise and better with a little research, foresight and testing by a few CFIs / CFI-Is..YinYangMountainVersion: 3.4.1

✓ Not worth the moneyThe VOR training portion of the application is well done, however, there are free versions of this online that work equally as well. The remainder of the application is not worth much. Should be .99 cents..Gasgas_05Version: 3.0.1

✓ Very limited usefulnessI was hoping for something useful for maintaining instrument currency, but this is not it! This is basically a very cut-down version of OddSoft RANT. If it was a better imitation it would be quite useful, but this is missing too much functionality. In its current version it's just a really simple introduction. This might be quite a useful tool for instructors introducing students to first principals of radio navigation. But after 30 minutes mastering it, this program would have little to offer. On the plus side, it's nicely programmed and the controls work well..M20J MSEVersion: 3.0.0

✓ Geez!Don't waste your time with this app. When it works, you just drag and drop to move the aircraft around...no instructions. Otherwise the app doesn't open. geez, at waste of time and money!.DD13___Version: 3.1.1

✓ Doesn't work on iPad 3Stuck with non working app after upgrading iPad..ILikeSlurpeesVersion: 3.0.1

✓ Stick to basic versionThe PRO version doesn't offer all that much more over the basic. Would be more useful if it would give you radials to intercept and routes to fly for the tests. Save your money..Gravy granjaVersion: 3.4

✓ Don't buyWaste of money, all of about 5 minutes of use and its done. Not a very extensive learning tool. Looks thrown together, is definitely not worth 5 dollars and leaves me very disappointed..Derick13Version: 3.2.1

✓ Not HappySeems to be a scam! Worked for one day and no longer! Beware!.Buyer. BewareVersion: 3.0.2

✓ Needs a lot of work to be usefulWhen in fly mode, the aircraft rapidly leaves the screen and appears elsewhere on a different radial to what you were flying. I may have missed something in the settings but this is annoying and makes the app near useless for practicing..Edmondson684Version: 2.0.1

✓ Not badNeeds a bearing pointer to the station in conjunction with the HSI.CmryanjrVersion: 3.3.0

✓ Update to IOSPlease update.IOS-1Version: 3.3.0

✓ Buggy and not intuitiveBetter IFR trainers out there for less money - wish I could get my money back.NjdjdjeirVersion: 3.4.1

✓ Not for military flight studentsI found this app by searching "RMI" in the app store. I had to pay $5 to find out this app was not helpful. The RMI does not have a VOR or TACAN needle. It is also missing 45 degree benchmarks. Save your money..Nickoli432Version: 2.0.1

✓ Not a RANT but good practiceGood for practicing NDB tracking with a fixed card or RMI Would be good to stick a runway in somewhere to practice procedures and not convinced by the ILS thingy That said good instrumentation options.Brears2Version: 3.0.1

✓ Much Improved!The latest version is a significant improvement! The addition of a second beacon, and the ability to scale the Map make this a much more useable training aid. Now please can we have the ability to set the wind speed and direction to match current conditions? This App is aimed at low hours pilots coming new to radio navigation, and they are never likely to fly with Winds of 35 - 40 kts. That aside, this is a really useful guide to how radio navigation works!.P1lot5Version: 3.0.0

✓ Unrealistic instrument behaviorThe CDI needle has very low resolution. It ticks in 1 degree increments. One dot is 2 degrees, so from full deflection to intercept is only 10 ticks... it looks terrible. The CDI does not move fluidly in an analogue manner like in real-life. There is not as much trend information as in real-life. Not good. Update: Your response is nonsense. I’ve used plenty of modern digital displays like Garmin G5 and G1000 and while the OBS is only capable of selecting a course in 1 degree increments, the CDI needle itself still moves fluidly in an analogue manner as bearing to the station is changed. Stop making excuses. The instrument in this app does not behave the same as a real life VOR indicator in virtually any GA airplane..RvleicVersion: 3.4.1

✓ Nav.Horrible! Waste of $5.00 For student pilot the instructions are completely inadequate. I-tunes should provide a warning to new student pilots!.60's Jukebox Hits #3Version: 3.0.1

✓ Good App but needs more workBut you cannot toggle to hide and unhide the Airplane and the track / trail needed for advanced practice..XavierrrrrrVersion: 2.0.1

✓ DisappointedDon’t get me wrong— there’s nothing wrong with the app. But the price point is off base. This is a $1.99 app at most..HOMEMEANSNEVADAVersion: 3.4.1

Nav Trainer Pro works most of the time. If it is not working for you, we recommend you excersise some patience and retry later or contact Nav Trainer Pro.
