Factory reset was tried by Morteza, and he still had this vario issue of speed to fly indicator going nuts. I will check some settings today and report back.

Glad to hear this is a widespread problem. Richard gave my V7 the shakedown on the bench and pronounced it healthy. Great customer service. I am glad to hear I wasn't in dreamland when the thing went screwy on last day of region V North. Still won contest ( my first win ) but it was like the water torture drill trying to ignore the baritone chord on the audio.

Any indication as to what the "hardware fault" was? The in-flight re-boot sounds like a bad solder joint or bad connector somewhere. I have a brand new (V)S7 in front of me, so if there are some things I can check before it goes in the panel, I'd be interested to hear.

I'd also be interested in hearing how old the problematic units are. Or maybe LXNav have sold thousands of good ones and we're just hearing about the outliers.

The factory reset seemed to have sorted me out. Oudie IGC, flarmbrick, V7
Also, I did the update with an oudie II to work around the IGC update issues...before the reset step.

I love this setup and so far probably spend the most time playing with flarmbrick updates and making sure it is performing optimally.
