Brauniger IQ Basic / GPS

$585.00
Price: $585.00

Bang for your Buck! Amazingly, this vario? has a GPS built-in which can then provide data such as wind speed and direction (used from your drift when thermalling), and ground speed. It’s perfect for recreational XC flying, as it allows for a route of GPS waypoints to be programmed into it.

Note: The Brauniger Basic/GPS is exactly the same product as the Flytec 6015 variometer?.

Curt's Pro Tip: 

The “Wind” data field is a great tool for a hang glider and paraglider pilots so they can monitor how the wind shifts over time or distance,  OR while climbing through different altitudes.  This function is available because of the software that links with the integrated GPS.  The onboard bearing compass is very handy, too.  The Swiss made Brauniger BASIC and Flytec 6015 varios provide the most functions for the dollar.  Besides that, they're built rugged and have a friendly user interface.

 

Product Details
Suitable For: 

Paragliding and Hang Gliding pilots of all levels.

Specifications: 

Dimension: 138 x 74 x 23 mm
Weight: 182g

Options: 

The vario? comes in two models displaying the climb rate unit (ft/min
or m/s), on the case next to the left side of the screen.  Note, that
the digital display can be switched to either format, no matter what
model you buy.

Warren Windsports prefers ft/min because the aviation
navigation maps are printed in feet. Also, a climb rate is easier to
quantify if you are rising at 500ft/min over 10 minutes....you'll be
5000 feet higher. Try doing the math for the same rate 2.5 m/s over 10
minutes! It's a personal choice, too, of course.
