Function Overview

• Total integrated flight instrument with 16 channel GPS receiver.
• Robust ABS housing, aerodynamic with soft edges
• High precision pressure sensor for a very sensitive variometer
• High resolution graphic LC-display 160 x 240 = 38.400 pixel with automatic and manual contrast adjustment, important for map function
• 2 separate battery banks (2 AA cells each bank) providing 2 x 20 hours of use. Automatic battery switch over allows complete use of the battery capacity eliminating half used batteries!
• Automatic or manual Start/Stop of flight recording
• Variable record interval 1... 30 sec allows recording up to 120 hours
• Continuous display of GPS and battery status
• connection for optional vane-speed sensor
  • Wind speed
  • Time of day
  • Flight time
  • Speed over ground
  • Calculated airspeed
  • Wind component on course line
  • Altitude over destination
  • Altitude over best glide to goal
  • Distance to destination
  • Distance to goal
  • Bearing
  • Track
  • Distance to best climb in vicinity
  • Ambient temperature (F or C)
  • Altimeter 2 (relative)
  • Altimeter 3 (accumulated altitude)
  • Barometric pressure (HPa/in Hg)
  • Glide ratio through air
  • Glide ratio over ground
  • Glide ratio to waypoint
• Automatic und manual volume control
• Memory for 200 waypoints
• Memory for 20 routes up to 30 waypoints
• Input of different cylinder radii for a competition route
• Automatic alarm und switching over to the next WP when crossing the circumference of the actual WP (competition route only)
• A recorded flight conforms to IGC-rules (including the digital signature) and is fully compatible with popular flight evaluation programs like Seeyou, CompeGPS, Maxpunkte, GPSVar, IQ-Online for declaring flights to the OLC.
• PC-program FlyChart allows easy set-up functions as well as down- and uploads of waypoints, routes and flight tracks
• Three different displays pages can be scrolled by the user:
  1- Normal flight with round analog vario scale, Alt1, Speed, and more
  2- Flight to a GPS goal with bar graph vario scale and a graphic final glide calculator. A cross hair shows flight direction and altitude above the path of best glide
  3) Real time map display with track and waypoint names, cylinders; with Zoom In - Zoom Out function
• Interface cab el to a PC (serial RS232 port)
• Dimensions: 165 x 70 x 36 mm Weight: 270 g (with batteries/without clamp)
