Function overview:

• Flight instrument with integrated 16 channel GPS receiver w/internal antenna.
• Large, high contrast, graphic LCD display (2-3/8" x 3-1/8") resolution of 320 x 240 pixels
• Ergonomic two tone keypad with easy menu structure
• Two event driven soft keys are allow access to important functions performed without navigating through different menus
• Audio functions are adjustable over a wide range and can be set to automatically increase with speed.
• Up to 200 waypoints can be defined.
• Up to 20 routes, each with 30 waypoints can be stored
• Automatic pilot notification, when an FAI cylinder is passed (enter or exit)
• Automatic indication to the last best lift
• Automatic start and stop of data logging
• Up to 96 hours of FAI/IGC data logging memory
• Scan rate increasing automatically near FAI-sector/turn point with acoustic and visual notification
• Scan rates can be adjusted from 1 to 60s for off-sector/turnpoint flying
• Each track log point records: longitude, latitude, altitude (pressure + GPS based), true airspeed, speed over the ground, wind direction, event marker
• Allows for input of official observer identification which locks the FAI part of the logging until landing.
• 2 different speed sensors may be used: integrated pitot tube or optional external vane type for paragliding
• Total energy compensation (TEC)
• All user settings can be set using the keypad
• McCready and glide path features
• The integrated final glide computer allows a guided flight to all memorized waypoints, showing the expected height over target and height above best glide
• The display offers different analog and digital information that the pilot can adjust to his/her own preferences
• Twelve user selectable fields, including:
  • Wind speed
  • Wind direction
  • Time of day
  • Flight time
  • Speed over ground
  • Diff. speed between TAS and groundspeed
  • Altitude over destination
  • Distance to destination
  • Bearing
  • Track
  • Direction to best climb in vicinity
  • Ambient temperature
  • Altimeter 2 (relative)
  • Altimeter 3 (cumulated altitude)
  • Barometric pressure (HPa/in Hg)
  • Glide ratio (through air, over ground, to waypoint)
• Simulation mode where all features can be tested and simulated
• Display of current voltage and remaining battery time
• Internal NiMh battery provides more than 25 hours of use with the GPS receiver set to a 1 second update rate (longer update rates will increase usable operating time). Battery is quick charge types without memory effect and can be charged from a AC power outlet or directly from a car cigarette lighter
• ABS housing, aerodynamic with soft edges
• Dimension: 7" x 3-3/4" x 1-3/4"
• Weight: 15 oz. (without hang gliding bracket)
