Personal Bests 2

Dragging up the bottom panel reveals your personal bests. You can choose to see personal bests for all time, or tap the year tab to see personal bests for a specific year. You will see a graph showing total flight time per year/month. Tapping on a month will show the flights and stats for that month.

Gaggle keeps track of the following personal bests:

  1. Flight Time
  2. Total Distance
  3. Maximum Speed
  4. Maximum Climb Rate
  5. Maximum Altitude
  6. Maximum Height Above Ground
  7. Maximum G-Force
  8. Maximum Distance from Launch

Tapping on a record opens up the flight recording that set that record.

Personal bests are calculated based on trends in your flight and is not calculated based on any absolute maximum value in your flight, so might achieve higher values for short periods of time but not have it count towards your personal bests. Typically, you need to maintain a maximum for at least 10 seconds for it to count towards your personal bests.
