Description:

FlightLink is the free, proprietary app that adds enhanced functionality to all Lightspeed headsets.

FlightLink works seamlessly with Lightspeed headsets manufactured since 2012 (Zulu 2 and 3, Sierra, Tango, and PFX) to record and playback incoming and outgoing communications. Older Zulu 2 and Sierra headsets may qualify for a factory•installed retrofit at a nominal fee. For more information on a retrofit contact Lightspeed Customer Care by phone 800.332.2421 or email at service@lightspeedaviation.com.

When combined with the Zulu PFX ANR headset, FlightLink's enhanced capabilities include recording via Bluetooth and the ability to set a variety of personal audio and operational preferences.

FlightLink Recording Features

FlightLink is perfect for any pilot flying with an iPad or iPhone who wants to capture and retrieve in•flight communication. It is also a valuable tool for flight training at all levels because of its ability to capture the intercom communication of instructional flights.
• Record all activity over the intercom, including inbound and outbound transmissions, and in•cabin conversation.
• Instantly play back ATC calls or other communications from any point within the last two minutes of recording.
• Create a permanent archive of all flight communications for post•flight briefing and training.
• Store your recording library on your iPhone or iPad, and access them with the iOS Files app or iTunes on a Mac or PC.
• Take handwritten notes on iPads and use Apple Pencil or Pencil 2 on supported iPads.

FlightLink Personal Preference Features (With Zulu PFX headsets only)

In addition to its recording features, FlightLink•s enhanced capabilities allow Zulu PFX headset users to adjust a variety of audio and operational settings, creating a personalized flying experience. For example:
• Customize audio settings for different aircraft or users
• Fine tune audio response for maximum voice clarity and music fidelity
• Use the Voice Clarity• option to boost frequencies common in human speech without impacting the quality of music from auxiliary devices
• View remaining battery life with the battery level indicator
• Enable / disable audible low battery alert
• Choose Auto Shutoff• delay intervals
• Save custom settings in up to three personal profiles

The ability to set and save other audio and operational preferences through FlightLink is only available on the Zulu PFX headset.

Junk

App won't connect via bluetooth and using cable resulting in terrible audio with lots of background noise and me but no atc or others. Very disappointed

Should record everything not just the mic

It is a great app. Works well. When I found where to set to record everything you hear :)

Great cockpit addition

This fantastic app is great to use along with a GoPro camera to record and playback my flights. It's great to use when taking friends and family flying to give them a video to remember the trip!

Zulu 2 headset settings

There is one DIP switch setting you’ll want to check. Open up the battery door of the headset’s controller and remove the battery to find the switches. Switch 6, labeled “Leave Off” in current models, needs to be in the ON position if you want to record everything you hear including the radio and other passengers. In the OFF position, just the headset microphone is connected to the recorder and it’s unsquelched, meaning you’ll hear plenty of background noise when you’re not talking. But with the switch ON, recordings are excellent and identical to what you hear in your headset. I’ve been a Lightspeed user for more than ten years, and have continually traded in my older headsets for newer versions under the Trade Up program. If you have the original Zulu headset as I did, you’ll need to trade-up to the Zulu.2 headset. And if you owned a Zulu.2 headset prior to the FlightLink app launch in late July, you’ll need to pay $69 to get your headset upgraded to a newer version of the Zulu.2 that works with the app.

Private Pilot

I purchased the Zulu 2 just so I could have this feature, and it works as advertised. The only trouble I am having now is figuring out how to export the audio from the Ipad to my computer...

Pretty useless.

No manual. Gives a one line at a time tutorial but only if your headset is attached. Says you can store files on computer. Well that's true but you can't listen to them or use them in any way on the computer. Files are in .caf format and nothing else can read them. I want to insert the audio into videos. And not just using itunes either. Forget it. Says you can listen to past audio while flying - sorry but you need to be listening to current ATC not listening to old stuff. Only practical use would be to be able take it home and listen or use it later and seems you can't do that. Basically seems to be a waste of memory space.

The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
