Brauniger IQ Competition GPS
Alti-Vario | Altimeter-Variometer
Flight Instrument with GPS Access
For Paragliding | Paramotoring | Hang Gliding
The IQ Competition GPS combines approved Bräuniger - Variometer - Technology in compact design with the option to connect a Garmin GPS device McCready function. For the very first time an ingenious simple McCready function and display has been realised on the instrument IQ Competition GPS.
On the Vario display simply appears an additional, single Vario pointer within the climb range, which is in accordance to the required McCready value (ring setting).
Any change of the “ring setting” is therefore indeed easy. It is just necessary to adjust the airspeed in such a way that the pointer shows to the required McCready value!
In addition, a specific acoustics signal supports the easy recognition of the selected ring value.
Goal Approach Calculator
The IQ Competition GPS has also integrated a very effective Goal approach calculator. When GPS receiver is connected, the Micro controller of IQ-COMP-GPS compares continuously the required glide ratio, which is necessary to reach a goal point memorised in the GPS, with the best airborne glide ratio, resulting from the Polar curve data input and the influence of the wind.
