Thanks for your input Max. I am concerned by some issues pilots here have had with Cambridge 302 failures. I am keen to support Borgelt (as a local product) if the vario will do what I need. I have heard a lot of positive feedback on his vario performance and product support. On the other hand, the LX1606 looks like a great instrument and quite minimalist though LX don't seem to have a strong presence here in Oz.

Regards, Ben
