Task Planner ​

The WeGlide Task Planner allows you to quickly create and declare tasks for your flights.

To create a new task, go to the task page and click on "New Task". On the following page you'll be able to enter a name and descption for your task and select the kind of ruleset you'd like to use.

To select waypoints, just click on the according spots on the map. To set a finish point, just click a second time on the last turnpoint you created.

Kind of waypoints ​

The planner offers different rule sets, as people fly tasks with different rules all over the world:

  • DMSt: start and finish are cylinders with a radius of 1 km. A turnpoint is a cylinder with a radius of 500 m or a 90° quadrant with unlimited radius. Each turnpoint taken only in the cylinder reduces the distance by 1 km.
  • FAI: the international rule set. Start and finish are 1 km lines perpendicular to the first and last leg. A turnpoint is a cylinder with a radius of 500 m, with the same 1 km deduction, or a 90° sector with unlimited radius.
  • AAT: Assigned Area Task. Each turnpoint is an area with a radius you set in the planner.
  • Grand Prix: a start line, turnpoint cylinders with a radius of 500 m and a finish line.

Keyhole is no longer offered for new tasks. Existing tasks keep it.

If you participate in a national competition like DMSt, NSFW or Ingo Renner Cup, online declared tasks are always scored with the rule set of that competition, whichever rule set you chose in the planner.

Local Competitions ​

You can upgrade a task to a Local Competition. Multiple flights get scored on the task and you can compare your performance to others. You can read more about it here.

Waypoints ​

You can download the cup file with all of the WeGlide waypoints used in the task planer here. We also provide one version with only the German (and Alps) waypoints here.

Why can I not edit some of my task? ​

Tasks that have already been declared by you or someone else can no longer be edited. It is still possible to delete the task, which only hides it from the lists.

How can I delete a task? ​

You can find a delete button on the top right of your tasks page.

Points ​

If you enter an aircraft, you can see directly how many points you will get if you complete the task.
