Just a quick reminder...

PowerFLARM *improvements over ‘classic’ FLARM

- PCAS, Transponder alarms (Mode S only, until updated)
- ADS-B aircraft displayed (today)
- Graphical, colored display (instead of 10 LED)
- Twice the FLARM range
- Dual FLARM antenna
- Can run battery powered
- Integrated GPS antenna (connector for external if needed)
- Amplified audio output connector
- Legal to operate in the US (pending)

more at:http://www.gliderpilot.org/FLARM-Comparisons

Mode A/C, flight recording and ADS-B alarming/dataport output will
either be ready when shipping in the US or available as a free update,
easily done by the pilot through an SD card (reader is integrated).
We will update technical data and specifications during the next
weeks.


What is the transmitter power output at the antenna? What is the power
consumption?
