At the begining of the season, I had dismantled the old C302 vario & have replaced it with a modern instrument : A XC Vario.
The old generation out... |
... replaced by a modern tool ! |
XCVario is in the family of open source varios, with the interest that a very neat hardware can be purchased, while software is opened.
In the main features :
- Basic sensors covers pressures (static, total & antenna) & temperatures informations for standart altitude & speeds parameter construction
- Advanced sensors as options providing as well as 3axis acceleros & gyros (AHRS)
- Full Wifi & Bluetooth connectivity is offered
- It is compatible with XCsoar
- It is ready to receive FLARM information, with a contact display

Hello,
can you give information in comparison between the Butterflyvario and the XC Vario. Especially the vario and the wind indicator would interest me.
