Default Thoughts on panel upgrade?

maanantai 30. tammikuuta 2017 7.17.59 UTC+2 Paul kirjoitti:

I imagine some of you have been down this road. Other than the obvious aesthetics, what's the benefit of replacing the Cambridge gear with something like an LXNAV S100?

Thanks,
Paul


Add flarm if you fly with other gliders, otherwise you are set-up for serious cross-country. L-Nav is average vario, unfortunately most of the new varios are not better. L-Nav/GPS-Nav is pretty intuitive to use.

For much improved aesthetics you could refinish the panel with nextel paint and new labels.
