PowerFLARM Display Update

Hi,

I must apologize. I had been a little confused and put forward some
incorrect information regarding the small display that is included with the
PowerFLARM Brick.

Previously my web site stated that the small Butterfly display would be the
one provided with the PowerFLARM Brick. That is not correct. The 2 units
look quite similar, but they are not the same. The Butterfly unit has a
more complex user interface with 2 knobs on the same shaft.

The PowerFLARM Remote Display will have a single knob/push-button - just
like the single knob/push-button on the PowerFLARM Portable.

The PowerFLARM Remote Display will have a display screen that is exactly the
same size as the display screen on the PowerFLARM Portable.

You can see 4 photos of the prototype PowerFLARM Remote Display he

Of course, this is all preliminary information, and subject to change. But
I am convinced that the final product will be a very nice product. Please
understand that part of the reason for the substantial discount on
PowerFLARM units is due to the preliminary status of the product.

I have no idea whether or not the PowerFLARM Remote Display will function in
all the different mounting orientations that the Butterfly display does.
But I am certain it will offer the same functionality as the display on the
front of the PowerFLARM Portable.

I look forward to receiving dimensions of the PowerFLARM Remote Display. I
have requested them.

My plan is to buy the PowerFLARM Brick and mount the PowerFLARM Remote
Display up high on the instrument panel - immediately above the moving map
display. It will fit in that location better than the Butterfly display
that fits into a 57 mm instrument hole.
