Me too. * I wonder when the user manuals, installation manuals, and
data port specifications will be available. Probably not until
deliveries start and that would be long after the preferential pricing
ends.

My next questions relate to the functionality and user interfaces of
bundled display and portable options:

Is the on-screen data presentation identical? If not, how is it
different?

Is the user interface identical? If not, how is it different? *It
appears that the user controls are not the same on the portable unit
as on the rectangular Butterfly display.

I also wonder if the bundled Butterfly display has embedded firmware
and, if so, how is that firmware updated if needed for future
functionality.

The (German) Butterfly Display manual on the support page I gave the
link to mentions updating the display firmware. And the same support
page I gave a link to contains existing Butterfly Flarm display update
software that users install themselves.

At some point you have to stop worrying about every little possible
problem and trust that two companies (Flarm and Butterfly) that have
been doing this stuff for years are going to get us a usable product.
