I purchased this unit, serial 001287, together with a PowerFLARM Core
and external display, from Craggy Aero as part of an Arizona Soaring Association group purchase. The unit was received August 2012. After comparing the two systems I have decided to continue to use my Zaon PCAS in my airplane and I do not need the portable. The unit is unused except for brief comparison testing at my home. It has never been installed, or used, in an aircraft. Unit is complete with all original packing materials, accessories, and documentation. Version is 2.40, build 4100, hardware 2.4. Asking price $1,350. You pay insured shipping. Disclosure- This unit was received damaged from the dealer. The FLARM A antenna connector and the SMA gender changer were severely misaligned. The unit was returned to the dealer with a request to replace it with a new undamaged unit. Instead of replacing the unit, the dealer sent it to the US PowerFLARM service center where it was inspected and repaired. The details of the repair are as follows: The unit was opened and inspected. It was determined that the damage had been caused by the unit being dropped. The circuit card was determined to be undamaged but the SMA connecter was bent. The SMA connector was removed, the tabs were straightened, and the connector was replaced on the circuit card. Despite my insistence that bending the connector straight and re-using it was not a proper repair, I was assured many times that the unit was “as new”. My repeated requests to have the unit replaced by a new one were rejected. Although the unit was “as new” the dealer declined my request to return it for a full refund. – End of disclosure.
