Default Cambridge 302 question

Hello Guys. I am restoring another 1-26 and have a spare older 302 I would like to use. Have any of you used that vario without the external TE probe, setting it to the internal compensation mode? The manual for it does’nt recommend it but I would like to save the bother and drag associated with installing an external probe.

I use a 302 with external TE in my other machine and it works great but have never experimented with the internal compensation setting. Any shared experience comments sure welcomed.



I have used the 302 as my back-up logger and vario on electric compensation only. I run my other vario on TE and see very little difference. If I have a TE failure it is nice to know the 302 will work well.

Thanks for all the comments guys, sure appreciate it. Not having to deal with mounting the TE probe for the 302 lightens my load of restoration chores lol.
