Default LX7007 & "LX Compass module" - wind calc

direction/speed?

By itself the LX7007 is less than convincing whilst the Oudie is quite

hopeless. As LX want £480 just for the "Compass module" I thought some

first hand feedback would be helpful?

The "money no object" solution seems to be the Butterfly vario, but again

there seems to be little pilot feedback on the web.


The LX 7007 is the most cogent argument I have encountered against gun control, - although the collateral damage to the glider might be a balancing argument for elniency.

But, if the compass modue functions as well as my 'Most Reliable Partner in Glidng" flight computer did, find another solution. For me, it was and is the LX 8080.

It's fantastic. And, if I were to consider additional options, I would have faith they would work.
