BRAUNIGER COMPETINO+ COMBINED GPS/VARIO

The Brauniger Competino+ is a Combined Altimeter and Vario flight instrument with an integrated 16-Channel GPS Receiver, and much more. The COMPETINO+ now offers an improved, elegant and functional design. Along with the latest input technology and a high contrast LCD screen plus many more features, culminating in a must have flight instrument for serious paraglider pilots. Key Brauniger Competino+ Functions o Flight instrument with 16-Channel GPS Receiver o Elegant and functional design o High-resolution graphic display o Easy entry of Competition co-ordinates/ Routes via PC with USB cable. o FAI-conform flight data are saved until landing. o Photographic documentation is no longer necessary (in accordance to FAI/IGC regulations for gliders) o The recording ratio is adjustable according to flight mission between 1 and 60 sec., upon arrival at Waypoint sector the ratio is automatically switched to 1 sec. and an acoustical as well as optical signal is provided to the pilot. It is possible to record up to 290 hours flight time. o For each flight are recorded: GPS-position, altitude (air pressure and GPS-value), TAS, speed over ground, time, marking for positions. o Easy data transfer via USB interface to the PC. IGC- and NMEA-data are available. IGC data are provided with digital signature, so that manipulations are identifiable. o Automatic or manual Start / Stop of flight recording o Variable recording interval 1 to 60 sec. for up to 290 hrs. flight recording o Permanent display of GPS and battery-status o The IQ-COMPETINO+ is specifically designed for the PG pilot. Inlet for optional wind vane-speed sensor o 27 user defined display fields. o Included accessories: Clamp (PG leg mount; CD with manual, flasher software and Flychart; transport bag, PC-cable USB type.
