react-flight-indicators

The react-flight-indicators package allows you to display high quality flight indicators using html, css3, React and SVG images. The methods make customization and real time implementation really easy. Further, since all the images are vector svg you can resize the indicators to your application without any quality loss !

Currently supported indicators are :

• Attitude (artificial horizon)
• Heading
• Vertical speed
• Air speed
• Altimeter

react-flight-indicators is a fork from sebmatton/jQuery-Flight-Indicators, and refactored for use with ReactJS, essentially removing the JQuery dependency.

Install

Using NPM;

npm install --save react-flight-indicators

Alternatively with YARN;

yarn add react-flight-indicators

Usage

import React, { Component } from 'react'
 
import {
  Airspeed,
  Altimeter,
  AttitudeIndicator,
  HeadingIndicator,
  TurnCoordinator,
  Variometer
} from 'react-flight-indicators'
 
const Example = () => {
  	return (
      	<>
            <HeadingIndicator heading={Math.random() * 360} showBox={false} />
 
            <hr />
 
            <Airspeed speed={Math.random() * 160} showBox={false} />
 
            <hr />
 
            <Altimeter altitude={Math.random() * 28000} showBox={false} />
 
            <hr />
 
            <AttitudeIndicator roll={(Math.random() - 0.5) * 120} pitch={(Math.random() - 0.5) * 40} showBox={false} />
 
            <hr />
 
            <TurnCoordinator turn={(Math.random() - 0.5) * 120} showBox={false} />
 
            <hr />
 
            <Variometer vario={(Math.random() - 0.5) * 4000} showBox={false} />
      	</>
  	)
}

Example & Demo

The JQuery demo can be found here : http://sebmatton.github.io/flightindicators/

Here are a few examples of currently implemented indicators :

The image below shows a part of an 800px indicator. Vector images allows you to keep high quality render with large indicators.

Further work is done by Sébastien Matton ([e-mail]), whom developed the jQuery plugin as part of his master's for showing realtime flight information from a quadcopter.
