*Logbook page is displayed while device is not in flight mode. Once device is in flight mode, Statistics page will appear instead of Logbook.

Attitude and horizon line Attitude is displayed as blue sky and brown ground. The border between the two is separated with a white line representing the horizon.

Attitude indicator The Attitude Indicator displays the pitch (indicated by the yellow symbolic aircraft on the pitch scale), roll, and slip/skid information.

Pitch The horizon line is part of the pitch scale. Pilot can see following pitch scale markings:
• 0° pitch markings Known also as “Horizon line”
• 2.5° pitch markings Found at the interval between 0° and ±20°
• 5° pitch markings Found at the interval of ±50°
• 10° pitch markings Found at the interval between ±50° and ±90°

Roll and roll scale The inverted white triangle indicates zero on the roll scale. Major tick marks at 30° and 60° and minor tick marks 10°, 20°, and 45° are shown to the left and right of the zero. Angle of is indicated by the position of the pointer on the roll scale.

• Wind direction in degrees, relative to aircraft heading (Black arrow on the green circle)
• Wind direction in degrees (with a wind socket icon)
• Wind speed with units (below Wind direction in degrees)

Wind calculation LX horizon is able to measure wind using an iterative method that is based on indicated airspeed (IAS), ground speed (GS) and track (TRK) measurements.

Use right–hand push–rotary knob to scroll through the list. To select press the push–rotary knob

Flight details By pressing the hand rotary knob – selecting the specific flight, pilot will enter the flight details page.

Displaying the name, take off time, landing time, duration, maximal IAS, maximal altitude will give you a quick way to fill out the needed information for your personal and aircraft logbook.

Flight transfer Select “Transfer to SD” to download your flight to Micro SD card inserted in the slot between the buttons on the front of the device.

The “Transfer” pop–up message should appear. If the transfer is not successful check if the SD card has been inserted correctly. Please use only manufacturer provided Micro SD card.

Overview: Statistics page is hidden if device is not in the “flight mode” and will appear instead of “Logbook” page once it goes into flight mode.

Device is in flight mode if it has a valid Airspeed and Altitude input.

Statistics information Statistics information displays the barograph curve, with time on the x-axis and altitude on the y–axis. Altitude scale will adjust according to the highest altitude achieved in a specific flight.

Additional line of 4 different parameters can be found at the bottom of the page:
• “Takeoff” (Take–off time (UTC)
• “Duration” (Flight duration)

List of airspace At the list of airspace, pilot can see the name of the airspace and its class below. On the right is relative distance. On the right part of the line are the vertical limits in meters/feet of altitude, height (AGL) or flight level (FL).

Airspace details By pressing right–hand push rotary knob on selected airspace from the list, pilot will access “Airspace details” page.

Device will display a graphical representation of the airspace and the current aircraft position along with the information already available on previous page
