Sorry for on-topic intervention, but is the variometer technology (hardware) identical in V7, V9 and S80? Or in other words, is there any evidence to think it is not identical?


Hardware is similar but the V9 S80 has inertial sensors.

What do they use inertial sensors for, besides horizon?


5.5.2.13 Inertial assisted vario
With the LXNAV S80, it is possible to adjust the influence of g-force on the vario. This
influence is very small and can be set to Off or between 0 and 4.
