Plots RPM, Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT), Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT), Altitude (AGL), and Tri-Axial Vibration synchronized to a single master flight time axis with interactive cursor scrubbing and dual/triple Y-axes.
A 2D cluster map analyzing Cylinder Head Temperature as a function of Engine RPM. Displays thermal operating bands across Idle (2,200–2,800 RPM), Midrange Cruise (5,000–6,500 RPM), and Max Climb (7,800–8,600 RPM).
Visualizes instantaneous engine rotational speed captured via inductive spark pulse sensing. Evaluates idle smoothness, mid-range throttle step response, and full-throttle maximum output.
Simultaneous side-by-side comparison of Cylinder Head Temperature (washer thermocouple under spark plug) and Exhaust Gas Temperature (probe in header pipe).
Plots Root-Mean-Square (RMS) vibration magnitude (m/s²) derived from high-frequency tri-axial accelerometer sensors mounted to the airframe chassis.
Simultaneous tracking of vertical/lateral G-forces (Z-axis G load) alongside gyroscopic pitch, roll, and yaw rotational rates in degrees per second (°/sec).
Plots Forward Airspeed (X-axis, mph) against Vertical Sink Rate (Y-axis, ft/min or m/s) across multiple trim configurations (Trims Slow, Trims Neutral, Speedbar 100%). Overlays factory OEM specifications and fleet averages against your live flight points.
A 6-spoke radar profile evaluating your wing's operational performance across: Glide Ratio, Minimum Sink Efficiency, Usable Speed Window, High-G Structural Rigidity, Airspeed Consistency, and Turn Agility.
Chronological bar-line trend tracking your last 10 flights. Computes the Pilot Efficiency Index (PEI) based on fuel economy, airspeed management, thermaling efficiency, and thermal stability.
Airspeed vs. Load Factor (G-Force) diagram showing the structural flight boundaries of your paramotor system, including Stall Velocity ($V_s$), Maneuvering Speed ($V_a$), and Never-Exceed Speed ($V_{ne}$).
Analyzes your forward torso pitch angle during the takeoff ground roll. Compares your launch power stance against the optimal 15°–25° forward lean drive zone.
Tracks roll axis stability and shoulder tilt during the inflation and acceleration run. Detects uneven torque pull, crosswind crab angle, or one-sided brake dragging.
Measures forward airspeed bleed-off in combination with vertical touchdown G-load impact. Analyzes two-stage flare execution: pendular level-off followed by full-brake touchdown step.
Dual-line real-time pressure curve comparing raw instantaneous barometric sensor data against a 60-second Exponential Moving Average (EMA) smoothed sea-level equivalent. Automatically alerts pilots to rapid barometric drops.
Calculates true aerodynamic density altitude by factoring ambient Outside Air Temperature (OAT) and barometric pressure. Computes 2-stroke engine horsepower derating and takeoff run extension.
Full 3D satellite visualization of your exact flight path with high-resolution ribbon extrusions color-coded by velocity, altitude, or variometer vertical climb/sink rate.
Cross-sectional altitude profile plotting Above Ground Level (AGL) and Mean Sea Level (MSL) altitude alongside instantaneous vertical speed (ft/min).
The CHT thermocouple utilizes a 14mm copper ring washer that mounts directly under the spark plug.
Installation Steps:
1. Unscrew the spark plug from the cylinder head.
2. Slide the CHT copper ring washer onto the spark plug threads until it rests flat against the spark plug base gasket.
3. Thread the spark plug back into the cylinder head and torque to manufacturer specification (18 – 20 Nm for Vittorazi Moster 185 / Atom 80).
4. Route the thermocouple wire away from direct exhaust pipe contact using high-temp silicone heat sleeves and secure with stainless/nylon zip ties.
The EGT probe measures combustion exhaust temperature directly as it exits the engine cylinder.
Installation Steps:
1. Measure 100mm to 120mm (4 to 4.75 inches) down the exhaust manifold pipe from the piston skirt / exhaust port flange.
2. Drill a 5mm hole in the exhaust header pipe at this marked location.
3. Insert the EGT thermocouple probe so the probe tip sits precisely in the center of the exhaust gas flow (do not touch the opposite pipe wall).
4. Tighten the stainless steel worm-drive clamp around the exhaust pipe to lock the probe securely in position.
Engine revs are detected non-invasively via electromagnetic inductive pulses emitted by the high-tension spark plug lead.
Installation Steps:
1. Take the yellow/black RPM pickup wire from the BlackBox harness.
2. Wrap the wire 3 to 5 tight revolutions around the thick spark plug HT ignition cable approximately 2 inches back from the spark plug boot.
3. Secure the wraps tightly with electrical tape or heat shrink and a zip tie.
4. Do NOT strip the wire insulation — induction works cleanly through the outer rubber jacket!
The BlackBox records all flights autonomously to its internal SD storage at 50Hz. You never need to connect cables to download flight logs.
How It Works:
1. Save your home or hangar Wi-Fi network SSID and password on the Hardware Pairing Page.
2. After landing, when you bring your motor back into range of your Wi-Fi network and power it up, the BlackBox connects automatically.
3. The device uploads all pending CSV telemetry files directly into your CommandCenter pilot profile in less than 10 seconds.
4. Open your dashboard and your new flight will be waiting in your Mission Debrief queue!
If replacing or formatting the internal MicroSD storage card:
• Format Type: FAT32 (exFAT is NOT supported by embedded bootloaders).
• Speed Class: Class 10 / U1 or higher (e.g. SanDisk Ultra, Samsung EVO).
• Capacity: 8GB to 32GB (stores thousands of hours of high-rate telemetry).
