IGC Flight Recorder and Navigation Instrument

LX Navigation Colibri X

General Description

The LX navigation Colibri X is an IGC certified standalone logger with a bright, transflective technology display, which offers the pilot multiple navigation and vario pages. It is a flight recorder, final glide calculator and navigation system with an internal battery, audio warnings, vario beeps and voice messages.

The unit is capable of providing APT (airport), TP (turnpoint), and TSK (task) and NRST (nearest landable) navigation on four dedicated navigational pages. Navigation pages feature Navboxes, which can be personalized by the pilot to his requirements. Airspace, airports and turnpoints information is shown graphically.

The Colibri X is designed to sit comfortably in your hand or to be mounted with one of our mounts to a space in your cockpit.

The Colibri has a dedicated pressure sensor for determining your altitude, providing a more accurate altitude reading in comparison with GPS–altitude based systems. A minimum sampling rate of 100 Hz is applied to all sensors.

As an integral part, it has a 3.5″ sunshine readable transflective LCD display to show all user–defined data during flight.

For accessing all system options, innovative gestures are used, much like the ones you are used to from your current touchscreen devices. A voice module is also built–in for audio warnings.

We used a high–end capacitive–type touch panel for our device, allowing us the benefits of multi–touch and that high–quality feel of a touch handheld device.

An integral IGC approved flight recorder with ENL level detector will record flights to internal solid–state memory (16GB). All flights can be copied to an external SD card after the flight.

Why Colibri X?

Because Colibri X represents the cutting edge of portable IGC loggers. The 3.5″ transflective LCD display will show you the way when flying tasks, cross–country flights, or just plain airfield soaring.

With the Wi–Fi/Bluetooth module inside, you are stepping into the age of connectivity.

The dedicated vario page will help you turn those tight lifts and improve your feel for the thermal with our thermal assistant. Always know your position and heading, with clearly visible lift or sink, thanks to our gradient digital needle.

The Colibri X is a miniature package that includes everything a glider pilot needs from his logger. From vario information, navigation, statistics, up to the very root of this device – IGC certified logger.
