A few days ago i was introduced to the hourly predictor by the guys on #highaltitude IRC.
\nIt is a handy lump of software that is built around the normal balloon flight predictor, however it runs a forecast for a launch at each hour of the next week.
\nThis allows you to pick out the best date\/time to launch.
\nThe setup was reasonable to understand but the documentation pretty much consisted of a list of terminal commands<\/a>.
\nI have put together a video outlining how to set this up in a vmware player virtual machine, going through each command and what (I think) it does.<\/p>\n

If you find the video below useful, or have any other questions please leave me a message or find me on IRC <\/a>(chrisstubbs) #highaltitude<\/p>\n

I am slowly uploading a copy of the VM for people to download… so that will appear here shortly…. but might not work properly on other machines!<\/p>\n
