Function overview:

• Flight instrument with integrated 16 channel GPS receiver w/internal antenna
• High resolution, high contrast, graphic LCD display (160 x 240 pixels) with automatic or manual contrast adjustment
• High precision pressure sensor for a very sensitive variometer
• Ergonomic two color keypad with easy menu structure
• Two event driven soft keys 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 a competition cylinder is passed (entry or exit)
• Indication of direction and distance to the last best lift
• Automatic indication of wind direction and velocity
• Automatic start and stop of data logging
• Variable record interval (1-30 sec) for up to 120 hours of FAI/IGC data logging
• Scan rate increasing automatically near FAI-sector/turn point with acoustic and visual notification
• Each track log point records: time, GPS position, GPS altitude, pressure altitude, true airspeed
• Calculated airspeed (no external sensor required)
• Input for optional external vane type airspeed sensor for more accurate airspeed
• Compatible with FlyChart which allows easy set-up of functions as well as download/upload of waypoints, routes and flight tracks. A recorded flight conforms completely to IGC-rules (including the digital signature)
• Compatible with flight evaluation programs (SeeYou - CompeGPS - Maxpunkte - Trackview - GPSVar - IQ-Online) for posting flights to OLC
• All user settings can be set using the keypad or FlyChart
• 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
  • 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
• Simulation mode where all features can be tested and simulated
• Powered by 2 separated battery banks (2 AA Alkaline or NiMH in each bank) providing 2 x 20 hours of use. Automatic battery switch over always allows a complete use of the battery capacity - eliminates half empty batteries!
• Continuous display of battery status (bank 1&2)
• ABS housing, aerodynamic with soft edges
• Dimension: 6.5" x 2.8" x 1.4"
• Weight: 10 oz. (with batteries, without bracket)
