The popular LXNAV S80 and S8 standalone varios now have a new CLUB variant available. If you need a standalone variometer, with all the same connectivity, upgradeability and accuracy as the S80/S8, but without the need for airspace, tasks, pilot profiles and remote inputs (airbrake, undercarriage warnings etc), then the S80/S8 Club is the choice for you. Built with the exact same hardware as for the S80/S8, these units can be upgraded to include any of the above features as a software upgrade - meaning it can be upgraded to full S80/S8 functionality at any point in the future. They can also be upgraded to include AHRS, bluetooth functionality just like the S80/S8.
The S80 is an 80mm diameter unit. For the 57mm variant, you need the S8.
Software options
- Airspace Indication
- AHRS Indication
- TSK Navigation
- Digital Inputs
- Pilot Profiles
Please note - you must only use a single source of power for this setup. Connect only the S80 to your power source using the harness provided: your Flarm and Oudie will be both be powered by the S80. Please call us first if you have any doubts about how to wire in your S80.
The S80 fits into a standard 80mm instrument hole.
