Las Vegas Valley Soaring is looking to acquire a Blanik L23 in good condition in the US. If anyone is aware of one coming available we'd appreciate knowing about it! Thanks, Dennis Ballew Vice President Las Vegas Valley Soaring Association

Does anyone happen to know how a LX 100 vario works, and what inputs it needs ? After a happy hour on my back with flashlight and mirror trying to decipher the plumbing, I think mine is connected only to 12V and two separate capacity bottles. That seems strange, but it works. Can anyone tell...

hi, We have a LX1000 an its manual, but this one doesn't give any accurate information how to make the Polar programmation with DIP-switches. With the information in the manual we can check the Speed director and so chose standard, Course or Open classe, but not make the programming of the...

Try as I may, I cannot find a way to adjust the deadband for either climb or cruise for this unit. Has anyone figured it out? The manual is singularly cryptic. I am running it with Fly with CE. Mark

Has anyone been successful hooking a GPS engine up with an LX 1600 through the port where a Colibri would go? That would be with the GPS engine spliced to an RJ6 flat cable. That port should supply 12v to the GPS antenna. I am so far utterly defeated, trying to use a Garmin 18 PC. Any tips or...

Would anyone with experience flying with both of these varios please provide comments on their views of the two devices? Audio, ease of adjustment, accuracy, etc? I've been to the various websites, so don't need any more specs, thanks.

We just got a used LX4000 "as removed"... Does anybody have a wiring diagram, or pin-out diagram for the LX4000? We can find the user manual online...but not the install manual. Thanks, Cookie

Hello, Recently acquired an LX 4000 flight computer and variometer. We only have an operating manual. Where can I find an installation manual or schematic? Thanks!

Hi My new laptop with Window VISTA will not communicate with my LX 5000 with a serial/USB adapter. Can someone help! Thank you Gilles

Good afternoon, I have a LX 5000 version 11.1. During my last 6 flights, I have been getting an invalid IGC file when I download to OLC. During the power up of the LX5000, I keep getting the following WARNING, SECRET KEY NOT VALID! PRESS ENTER TO QUIT! When I was in Moriarty last week, a couple...

Our LX 5000 is set up for electronic compensation. Checked and double checked. Right now, we are running at 250% compensation, in an effort to get some realistic output. This is not working accurately. Our TE Winter vario is working well but slower, as expected. Any insights/help would be...

I'd like to know if any long-timer user of these instruments has good data on the performance difference(s) between using the TE tube and the Electronic TE compensation, and if so, what you personally recommend. (I seem to recall that the Cambridge 302 had a similar setup option, and that the...

Have installed Winpilot adv on RS235 o/p from LX. It gets a fix no problem. However the LXdec function does not seem to work. The LX "connects" to the Ipaq and the Ipaq shows declaration sent. However the declaration does not appear on the LX. Anybody any ideas ?? Stuart Kinnear

My LS 8 came with one of these. Since I've got some questions the manual does not seem to address...was wondering if someone who knows this unit might get back to me. In addition to some setup issues, it does not want to play nice with my OUDIE. I'm considering replacing it. But it does seem very...
