New Butterfly Vario
Hi,
The LX8000 and LX9000 use an AHRS sensor box with built in g-meters, etc. http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/lxnav.htm#LXNAV-AHRS Paul Remde "Mike" wrote in message ...

The code has been there for many years, but is disabled, the comment says why. (Not my opinion/decision, I would not put artificial limits on technology used by XCSoar) This code will be reinstated when Johnny (and the rest of the OpenVario project) finishes his new vario design, which includes a real AHRS. The OpenVario project started long before Butterfly announced their vario, but since it's a spare time project of a few soaring geeks, it takes a bit longer. Max Is this also the source of the faux AH found in L8000? |
