Launch and a probable zoom pattern
Relative gain after the bungee launch and a cautiously marked zoom pattern, only when the data support it.
Flight log and coach for RC glider pilots
Know what really happened after every flight.
Upload an EdgeTX CSV flight log from your RC glider — even straight from your phone at the field — and see how the launch, lift and landing went. GlideNudge combines telemetry analysis, an optional GPS track and proven soaring principles into a clear post-flight review.
Current log support: EdgeTX CSV only. Logs from Futaba, FrSky and other systems are not supported yet.
Open public demo (read-only)Try it with my own flightsSample data can only be viewed. You only need an EdgeTX CSV; GPS is optional.
What you get
Lift and air work
Vario, found lift, circling and places where energy was lost.
GPS track and flight replay
Route, timing and important flight points directly on the map.
A separate GPS logger is required for the map and replay; an EdgeTX CSV alone cannot create a track.Landing and spoilers
Target, the final phase of the flight and recorded spoiler use.
Mission for the next flight
One clear training focus instead of a long list of advice.
Fair progress
Model, site, launch setup, weather and history kept separate for meaningful comparisons.
How it works
Connect your radio or card
Upload EdgeTX CSV from a computer or phone; add a GPS track as an optional extra for the map and more flight context.
Automatic analysis
The engine processes telemetry, GPS and vario, then identifies the launch phase, lift, sink, link status and recorded spoiler profile.
Coaching takeaway
Get a clear recommendation and one specific focus for the next flight. Your history then shows whether the habit is really changing.
Built for real flying
GlideNudge is a personal coach and flight log for RC glider pilots flying F3L / RES. It starts with real radio and GPS data and turns them into a practical debrief that helps you read the air better and fly with more confidence.
Examples from real flight data
Five key outputs a pilot receives from their own log. Click an example to view it at full size.
Measured data, not guesses
Altitude, launch, vario, GPS, turns, spoiler, link and battery.
A clear flight review
Flight takeaway, strongest moment, main limitation and a concrete task.
Long-term progress
Next focus and the trend of recurring flying habits.
Vario and altitude chart
Altitude and vario over time for precise reading of flight phases.
GPS flight replay
Colour-coded track, wind, flight markers and route replay over time.
A quick Dashboard tour
See sign-in, CSV and GPS log upload, the debrief, and how chart evidence works.

Getting a log onto your phone or computer
The EdgeTX CSV remains on the radio's SD card. At the field, use a USB-C/Lightning card reader or OTG adapter, copy the CSV into Files and choose it during upload. On a computer, connect the radio by USB or insert its SD card, copy the CSV from the LOGS folder and upload it. GPS remains optional.
Built by a fellow pilot
GlideNudge is being tuned on real F3L / RES flights and stays deliberately conservative: a coaching takeaway always points back to measured evidence and its limits.
Want to try GlideNudge with your own logs?
We are inviting a small number of RC glider pilots with EdgeTX CSV logs to a free one-to-one beta test. We will set up your account, review the first logs together and ask for candid feedback.
After you send the form, we will reply by email and agree on the first log together.
