Default Flarmview versus Flarmview 57

I have ATD-57. It has hardware and display that is head and shoulders above anything by LX, huge contrast and brightness with anti-glare coated display. It works perfectly and customer support is excellent as always.


One complaint with the LXNAV TrafficView57 in the above thread is that some of the text is too small to read (that's easy to believe as I have that exact issue with the LXNAV S8 Flarm page. Does the ATD-57 have the same issue?

Does anyone want to chime in about the top choices for a Flarm dispaly in a 57mm panel space? I'm replacing a Butterfly display that's failing.

Thanks,

Eric



After researching the options, I eventually installed an ATD-57. I've been quite happy with the display and it's quite clear and bright. I like the 4 push buttons at the top of the display for easy use. It also has an enhanced feature to display thermaling gliders with a circular arrow on the screen - nice when you're on course and looking for the next good thermal.
