"The programmers have done a fantastic job of capturing the essence of the iPhone's gestures, look, and feel. Whether it's the 'pinch' gesture to resize photos, the 'shake' that uses the iPhone's built-in accelerometers to start/stop timing, or using the standard iPhone's buttons and menus to move around, any iPhone user will feel at home using this program in no time." -- "Worth A Closer Look", Model Aviation, February 2009
RCLogbook is an iOS application designed by an RC pilot for RC modelers who need a convenient and effortless logging solution for their RC models and batteries.
Once you enter some basic information about your models and batteries (such as names, capacities, photos, propellers, and so on), RCLogbbok takes over to help you capture and edit information on flights (or races) such as the total time, location, notes, or average current draw. RCLogbook is designed to integrate seamlessly with your modeling by traveling with you to the flying field, racetrack, or lake. RCLogbook provides a timer allowing you to update your logs as you fly or race your models.
With RCLogbook, you can keep a log of each flight or race that includes the duration, notes, location, propeller, style, fuel and the batteries that were used. RCLogbook automatically tracks the total time on the model, number of flights, and so on. RCLogbook‘s built-in timer is fully integrated with the tracking making it easy to gather information. The timer supports count up and down modes and can use voice or musical chimes to let you know when you need to think about bringing your model back.
RCLogbook tracks battery charge and discharge cycles including resting voltages, discharge durations, and charge amounts. RCLogbook automatically updates discharge information at the end of a flight or race and can compute the average current draw during the flight or race. Using this information, you can watch the health of your batteries.
RCLogbook also supports maintenance logs and checklists allowing you to keep up to date on keeping your models in top shape.
What's New in Version 3.7.0
◆ New database elements for propellers. Models and events can now specify a propeller. The battery performance plots can filter on propellers now.
◆ New database elements for event “style”. Models and events can now specify a style. The battery performance plots can filter on styles now.
◆ Support for “retiring” a model or battery. This keeps the data in RCLogbook, but moves it to a separate page accessible from the main Model and Battery tab.
◆ Support for filtering individual cycles from the battery performance plots. This way, if you know a cycle is an outlier, you can exclude it from being included in the plots.
◆ New default added to set the duration of a directly entered event to the duration of the model’s last event.
◆ New default added to set the charge amount of a charge cycle to the capacity of the battery.
◆ Miscellaneous tweaks, updates, re-factoring, and stability improvements.

Customer Reviews
Love it
Just what I was looking for. Does everything I need with tracking batteries , flight time, and even maintenance. Customer support is excellent as well.
Solid app with great manual to support it
The manual was a selling point and worth the cost of the app! Other RC logging apps were not well documented, so it wasn't always clear the purpose of specific fields or how functions would work. I am new to the hobby and there is a lot of functionality that I will be growing in to on this app given that it has a lot of features that will be helpful right away and in the future to come.
A must have app if you fly RC
When I first installed audio prompts didn't work. Contacted the Developer and got some workarounds promptly from him. Turned out it was a "operator " error nothing to do with app. Must adjust the volume in the phone( not the ringer). Mine was set to very low. App is awesome and support was quick. 5 stars for both.
