FlightControlRP is a tool for tracking and calculating YPM (yards per minute) or MPM (meters per minute) between two latitudes and longitudes or race stations and lofts. Used in Pigeon Racing, this app uses the GPS to create new stations and calculate pigeon loft distances. Meters and celsius can be changed in iPhone Settings.

Using OpenWeatherMap data, the weather can be displayed for each race station, and the forecast can be analyzed to determine if conditions are appropriate for racing and training your pigeons.

Pigeon race progress can be tracked in real-time and displayed on a map with a current weather overlay.

Arrival times and YPM can be sent via Twitter.

Overfly is automatically determined and finish times can be adjusted on the fly.

Lat/Lon can be added as hh:mm:ss

52°12′17.0″S

Can be entered as any of the following...

DMS: -52:12:17.0
GPS: -52:12.2832
Decimal: -52.20472
