# Condor 2

## Connection Method

**UDP** — Condor 2 sends telemetry data over UDP.

* **Default IP**: `127.0.0.1`
* **Default Port**: `55278`

## Setup Steps

### Step 1: Locate the Settings Folder

Navigate to the Settings folder located in the directory where Condor 2 is installed:\
`...\Condor2\Settings\`

### Step 2: Edit the `UDP.ini` File

1. Find the file named `UDP.ini` in the `Settings` folder.
2. Open the file with a text editor (such as Notepad).
3. Modify the file to match the following configuration:

   ```ini
   [General]
   Enabled=1

   [Connection]
   Host=127.0.0.1
   Port=55278

   [Misc]
   SendIntervalMs=1
   ExtendedData=1
   ExtendedData1=1
   LogToFile=0
   ```
4. Save the file and close the editor.

### Step 3: Launch Condor 2

After editing the `UDP.ini` file, start Condor 2. It will now output telemetry data via UDP to the specified host and port.

## Available Telemetry

* **Orientation**: Pitch, Roll, Yaw
* **Acceleration**: G-forces
* **Speed**: Airspeed
* **Altitude**: Height data

### Telemetry Quality: ★★★★☆

## Recommended Starting Settings

Glider flying involves gentle, sustained turns:

* **Primary Cue Gain**: 70–100%
* **Smoothing**: Low to medium
* **Washout**: Low — glider movements are typically smooth and sustained

## Known Quirks

* **SendIntervalMs=1**: Setting the send interval to 1ms gives the highest possible update rate.
* **ExtendedData**: Both `ExtendedData` and `ExtendedData1` should be enabled for the most complete telemetry.

## Troubleshooting

### No telemetry data

1. Verify `UDP.ini` exists and has `Enabled=1`.
2. Check that the port is `55278`.
3. Ensure you are flying (not in menus).
4. Restart both Condor 2 and DR Sim Manager.
