The Flytec 6020 is a sophisticated flight instrument with built in GPS that is well suited for the entry level pilot to the advanced competition pilot.  The 6020 features a fast CPU, highly advanced circuitry, advanced data recording, in a sleek and compact  housing. Large high contrast display is very easy to read and intelligent keypad layout  allows for direct access to all key flight functions with minimal button pressing. Connection to a PC for upload, download and firmware updates is via a USB port.  Optional Bluetooth connection to a cell phone for real-time tracking. There is an SD card slot allowing for unlimited storage of flight tracks, waypoints and routes.  The 6020 has a user-friendly menu structure and terminology that can be set for several different languages.

Function overview:

• Flight instrument with integrated 20 channel high sensitivity GPS receiver w/internal helix antenna.
• Large, high contrast, graphic LCD display (2-3/8" x 3-1/8") resolution of 160 x 240 pixels
• Ergonomic two tone keypad with easy menu structure
• Accurate battery status shown for both battery banks at start-up, during flight and on shut-down
• Two event driven soft keys allow access to important functions performed without navigating through different menus
• Audio functions are customizable and adjustable over a wide range and can be set to automatically increase with speed.
• Up to 200 waypoints can be stored (unlimited using an SD card)
• Up to 20 routes, each with 30 waypoints can be stored (unlimited using an SD card)
• Automatic pilot notification, when an FAI/competition cylinder is passed (enter or exit)
• Automatic indication to the last best thermal
• Automatic or manual start and stop of data logging
• Up to 291 hours of FAI/IGC data logging memory at 60 sec record interval, 9 hours at 2 sec and 48 hours at 10 sec (recommended).  Record time unlimited using SD card
• Automatically records a point upon entry/exit of  FAI sector/turn point  with acoustic and visual notification
• Each track log point records: longitude, latitude, altitude (pressure + GPS based), true airspeed, ground speed
• Compatible with FlyChart which allows easy set-up of functions as well as download/upload of waypoints, routes and flight tracks (PC or Mac running virtualization)
• Recorded flight conforms completely to IGC-rules (including the digital signature)
• Compatible with flight evaluation programs (SeeYou. GPS Dump, CompeGPS, Maxpunkte, Trackview, GPSVar, IQ-Online) for posting flights to OLC
