17 METEO – Weather for Drones

Good to fly right now? 17 METEO answers in a second: 🟢 Green — good to fly 🟡 Yellow — fly with caution 🔴 Red — better hold off And it always tells you why. 17 METEO is a professional weather forecast for drones, FPV, UAVs and light aviation. A drone is hundreds of hours of work and serious money. One weather mistake takes it away in a minute. A regular forecast tells you whether to take an umbrella — a pilot needs winds and gusts at working altitude, cloud base, visibility, GNSS health, and the moment a safe launch window opens. 17 METEO puts all of it on one screen. Weather for drones, not the "average temperature in town". Set your aircraft's limits once, or pick a ready-made profile, and every forecast is checked against YOUR drone — quadcopter, FPV or fixed wing. 50+ ready-made profiles: DJI Mavic, Mini, Air, Matrice, Autel EVO, Ukrainian and Western professional UAV platforms — or build your own. AI FORECASTS THAT ACTUALLY WORK • Real next-generation neural weather models (NOAA AIGFS) — the technology reshaping world meteorology right now • An AI go/no-go verdict with a confidence level, cross-checked against a classical model • Model agreement: do ECMWF, GFS and ICON agree — how much can you trust today's forecast GO/NO-GO TRAFFIC LIGHT • Readiness status tuned to your UAV profile — with the limiting factor spelled out • Nearest green launch window: when it opens and how long it lasts • Hourly forecast for 24 h and a 15-day outlook WIND IS THE ENEMY • Detailed wind profile by altitude up to 3,000 m • Mission altitude: drag the line and every card recalculates • Wind rose, gusts, turbulence, density altitude, icing risk • Bluetooth anemometer support — ground-truth wind in the field PILOT TOOLKIT • Point of No Return (PNR): will the battery get you home against the wind • Wind triangle: actual ground track and ground speed • Radio line-of-sight: Fresnel zone, 360° coverage, MGRS input • Route analysis: weather where your aircraft will BE, not where it is now • Upper air: winds and temps up to FL450, Skew-T diagram, CAPE, freezing level • Battery state before launch, cold-weather derating NAVIGATION & SIGNAL • GNSS monitor: satellite health with spoofing alerts • GNSS forecast: how many satellites will be visible in your launch window • Geomagnetic activity: Kp index and its effect on GPS • Lightning and thunderstorms: CAPE index and hourly risk graph BEYOND THE AIR • Naval mode: wave height, sea state and departure windows for surface platforms • Ground mode: soil trafficability, night-frost windows, fords, control-link range WORKS EVERYWHERE • Worldwide coverage: the same forecast at any point on the planet • Offline maps and forecast cache — reliable where connectivity is poor • Home-screen widget: readiness at a glance • Shareable team briefing in one tap • Built in Ukraine — proven by pilots where weather decides everything PRIVACY (OPSEC) • All computation on-device; the app collects and transmits nothing • There is simply nothing to leak — private by default Built for people who fly for a living: aerial photo and video, FPV, inspections, search and rescue, agriculture — any unmanned platform. 17 METEO is a professional weather app for drone and UAV pilots — completely free.
