Hi,


It would be very interesting to see if your thermalling
improves, gets worse, or is unchanged after removing
the quick response from the vario.


Pilot "satisfaction" will be greater, thus making him happier + mode
confident in his instruments - improvement !

I have no trouble thermalling with my smooth acting
mechanical vario, but I think my "jumpy" electric vario
shows me more about the shape of the thermal I'm
in than my mechanical vario.


You're right, and that's what I'm aiming at: a fast response electric vario
(which is OK as it is now), and a smoother mechanical vario.
