Butterfly Variometers - In Stock

I'll be watching to see if they enable electronic compensation. I have a glider with no T.E. probe and the old VP-4E has better compensation electronically than any probe compensated system I've ever used. I'd really rather not drill a hole in the tail and have to run a line up the tailboom and figuring out some way to secure it in an almost completely inaccessible location if I could avoid it. I've been looking at LX and LXNav systems but the Butterfly looks like it would do a nice job of providing the functionality I need (including the Flarm display) without taking up a lot of panel space.

I'll fully understand if they don't enable electronic comp as I'm probably one of the only people interested in it!

This motorglider pilot, and probably others, prefer electronic TE, as
the propwash over the probe gives the meter the giggles.

How I wish I had that problem! I've tried putting my arm out the side window and flapping really hard but I just can't generate enough thrust to get off the ground.
