7) Transferring your flight data

Your flights can be transferred using a computer or a smartphone with the Syride Link software. The files are systematically copied locally and can also be sent to your online Syride flight book.

Transfer to a computer (USB)

  • Make sure you have installed the Syride Link software on your computer.

  • Turn on and connect your instrument to the computer using the USB cable.

  • The software automatically detects new available flights.

  • Click on the red “Transfer flights” button.

A copy of your flights is automatically saved on your computer in the following formats:

  • IGC (standard format for flight analysis and validation),

  • GPX,

  • KML,

  • SDF (Syride native format).

You can access these files by clicking: File → Local folder

Sending to your Syride flight book

If the “Use the flight book on syride.com” option is enabled, flights will also be automatically sent to your online flight book.

If you are not logged in, the software will ask for your email address and Syride password.

If you do not yet have an account, you can create one for free at: https://www.syride.comarrow-up-right

Your online flight book allows you to view, analyze and securely store all your flights.

Transfer to a smartphone (Bluetooth)

  • Make sure you have installed the Syride Link mobile application.

  • Connect your instrument via Bluetooth.

  • Tap the Bluetooth icon at the bottom of the application screen.

  • Click on the red “Transfer flights” button.

A copy of your flights is saved on your phone in IGC, GPX, KML and SDF formats.

The files are accessible from the flight list in the application and can be downloaded using the “Share” button.

Automatic transfer

⚠️ Important note: Automatic transfer can be enabled in the Syride Link application settings.

In this case, upon landing after the flight recording stops, the application automatically retrieves the data and sends it to your Syride account, if an Internet connection is available.

Re-transfer and duplicate management

⚠️ Important note: It is possible to display the list of flights stored in the instrument and manually restart their transfer in case of failure.

If a flight is already present on your Syride account, it will be automatically detected as a duplicate and marked as invalid in your flight book.
