Autumn in detail

Less daylight. More attention to conditions.

A new season changes flight preparation. Check more than the temperature near the ground.

01 / WIND

Calm below. What about above?

Compare wind at working altitude, its direction and gusts near the surface.

Explore the profile ↗
02 / VISIBILITY

Morning fog changes the plan.

Check forecast visibility and humidity, then assess actual conditions on site.

Before takeoff ↗
03 / DAYLIGHT

Shorter days. A considered return.

Consider sunrise, sunset and twilight. Solar times alone do not guarantee sufficient light.

How it works

Your flight. Your conditions. A clear assessment.

Calm weather on the ground does not tell the whole story. FlightSpace helps you check the conditions where your UAV will actually fly.

  1. 01

    Choose a point or route

    Mark the start and destination or analyze a single location.

  2. 02

    Set altitude and UAV parameters

    Define working altitude, maximum wind and other critical operating limits.

  3. 03

    Get a condition assessment

    See weather risk and the factors outside your selected limits.

Weather intelligence

Surface weather is only part of the picture.

Compare weather at your working altitude and across available sources. Agreement helps show where forecasts differ; it is not a guarantee of accuracy.

Supported sources include ECMWF, ICON, GFS, Apple Weather and additional automatically selected sources. Parameter availability depends on region and forecast horizon.

FAQ

Questions about FlightSpace

What is FlightSpace?

A professional iOS app for UAV flight planning with altitude weather, routes, terrain and weather-risk assessment.

How is FlightSpace different from a normal weather app?

It evaluates conditions at working altitude and along a route, then compares them with the limits of a specific UAV.

What UAVs can I use FlightSpace with?

Fixed-wing aircraft, multirotors, FPV, mapping and inspection UAVs. The operator defines the limits.

What does AGL mean?

Above Ground Level means altitude above the surface rather than altitude above sea level.

How far can FlightSpace analyze a route?

Up to 250 km, depending on the available plan and forecast-data coverage.

What weather sources does FlightSpace use?

Forecasts from Open-Meteo are delivered through the FlightSpace server. Apple Weather uses WeatherKit. Available parameters depend on the selected source, location and forecast period.

Does 92% agreement mean 92% accuracy?

No. It describes how similar the available forecast values are, not the accuracy of future weather.

Does FlightSpace replace official aviation information?

No. Always check NOTAMs, airspace restrictions, local regulations and actual conditions.

Does FlightSpace store my routes or coordinates?

Routes, bookmarks and settings are stored locally where technically possible. Coordinates are sent to weather services only to fulfill a forecast request.

What is FlightSpace Pro?

The advanced plan with weather up to 5,000 m, route analysis, terrain, LOS/Fresnel, forecast comparison and offline capabilities.
