The V7 looks really impressive, saw it at the SSA convention.

A couple of questions:

1. It has a built-in G-meter. Can it use it to change from cruise to
thermal mode automatically (like the LNAV) instead of a manual switch?
2. What about vector wind calculations and headwind component? (again,
like the LNAV).

V7 - It was love at first flight... I have about 6 hrs on mine and I must say that the display is great. No issues with polarized sunglasses, sharp colors and modern user interface. I must say that I also received top notch service from Craggy Aero which makes the product all the better!

I am still learning my way though the displays menus and the nav options.However, I do very much like the suggestions of RAS56 and David for future software upgrades. Using the SC buttons to scroll access a few key menus or data would be great. I use the LK8000 on a PNA and one of the great feature of that software is how one can jump from page to page by touching the lower portion of the screen. On the V7, the SC button could be use in a similar purpose to scroll though data (TAS, Netto, Alt, Battery, etc). A long "Hold" of the SC button would switch from vario to STF (and vice versa).
