Default Invisible Variometer

In general these low cost varios do not have any total energy compensation. They are designed for hang glider and paraglider use. Because HG and PG are light weight they don't carry much inertial energy so they don't suffer much from stick thermals. Using them in a sailplane will result in some degree of false lift indications unless you only pay attention to it when at a slow and steady speed.
