Interesting.
As a commercial drone company this may add to our accountability for potential legal cases. Sad to think that way, I know.
I have given this a try out (windows laptop).
It imported a lot of my flight logs, but also rejected a large amount which I likely won’t spend much time investigating why.
Biggest Plus for me is that the 3D flight path is available without having to download a file from Airdata and login / upload that file to google earth.
Unlike Airdata, it is only a manual upload of flight logs.
Thanks for sharing @Crackerjack
Downloaded and imported my Airdata files/
So far quite impressive though I feel I will renew my Airdata subscription and keep Drone Logbook as a parallel resource. I like the 3D mapping and the autotags.
There is a glitch in the data shown in the overview - speeds and distances are exaggerated by a factor of 10, hene my average speed for over 400 mainly photo and video flights is 77.8 km/h and distance 14.63 km per 11 minute flight!
(Speed and distance badges gratefully accepted
)
This anomaly changes once I look at the data for a specific drone rather than an overview of the fleet. The data for the Mini 4 looks legit while my Mavic air averaged 208km/h and 33.4 km per flight over a total 29 hours flight time
How do you download your Airdata files? I can’t find where to do this.
There is a separate program from the same author - Airdata Downloader
For the Windows version it was simply a matter of downloading and running setup.exe.
I then had to login to Airdata from within the downloader program and select which file(s) i wanted to download. So I tried one and it worked fine. Went back and selected all 430 flights. It toook a while but all were eventually downloaded and recognised by the Flight Log program.
Ah perfect, seems he’s done a Linux variant too.
Thought this was worth trying but I can’t get it to work. When I try to import logs I get the error HTTP404. Installed it twice and tried a few different things but no joy. I have a Mavic 2 Pro with DJI Go4, so maybe it doesn’t work with flight logs from that app.
Worth raising an issue on Guthub for it. The developer seems very responsive to bug reports
I think I’ll just stick with Airdata.
Looks like the developer got a cease and desist notice from Airdata which probably explains why it’s not working for you, I suspect they are detecting it and blocking it. The repository for the downloading tool has also been removed.

I’ll probably use both tools in fairness as they both present it in different ways, which is handy.
