The Variometer S100 from LXNAV is a stand-alone digital 80mm vario with target speed sensor, navigation function and final glide computer - Integrated GPS and IGC_Logger with ENL - A backup battery ensures reliability - Integrated Bluetooth - PDA/PNA interface - The sunlight-readable 3.5" display (320×240 pixels) is very easy to read in all lighting conditions - Three pushbuttons and two rotary switches with pushbutton function are used to set all parameters and for menu selection. - Integrated horizon platform (MEMS technology) - Flarm displays (when Flarm is connected as a GPS source) - Navigation with airspace, waypoints and tasks (with sectors, including AAT) - Flight log function - Second display with pushbuttons and rotary switches can be connected for two-seater operation
Main functions
- Integrated GPS
- Integrated IGC logger with ENL
- Integrated Bluetooth
- Integrated backup battery
- Vario and target drive function with high-precision display
- TE compensation possible via nozzle or electronically
- Navigation to waypoints
- Task navigation with sectors
- Airspace display
- Real-time wind calculation approx. 1 x per second with compass module (optional, in preparation)
- Optional: horizon display
- Flarm radar and warnings (if Flarm is connected), FlarmNet
- Digital inputs (vario/set speed, landing gear and flap warning,...)
- Centering aid
- Lots of additional information, such as average climb, upwind climb, net, speed, statistical data...
- Some useful values can also be read on the vario scale, e.g. average climb (red diamond), set McCready value (blue arrow) and climb over the updraft (green T). The comparison of these three values makes it easier to assess the currently achieved climb and the McCready value
- Four configurable data fields (vario page), three configurable data fields (navigation page)
- Pilot profiles
Further functions
