Electronic versus Pneumatic compensation (follow-up)

Most people I know who have fitted a Sage Vario use
a restrictor, sometimes two in the TE line. Usual rule
is not to mixe capacity and pressure instruments on
the same TE line without seoarating them by at least
a couple of metres.

Agreed. I have had 3 gliders with Sage varios and all had restrictors. The
one time that I tried it without one was a disaster and the swings were so
violent in the vario I was afraid that it might have caused permanent damage
to it.....sent it back to Sage and it was fine.
