Is there any pilots using the Butterfly vario who care to comment on the advantages,if any, of this instrument? I am serously interested in acquiring one but it as to be better than my LX 7000. Thanks for your input. Gilles Hi I guess this tread has seen it's end. I started it and it confirm my intuition, the vario is the best but the other pages are not that usefull, one need a navigation display of some sort. Thank you all for your input. Gilles


Gilles,

I have approximately 250 hours flying with the Butterfly it does not have all the features of the LX7000, but when connected to an Ultimate Le it has many more features than the LX7000.

Butterfly Vario combines Vario/Speedcommand, basic Backup-Navigation with final-glide calculation, a digital compass, Butterfly FLARM®-Radar with FLARM®-voice output, a robust artificial horizon with true airspeed and true altitude, a fully certified IGC-flight-recorder with many other features that simplify flying.

Please see for all the features:
