Oudie 4 Basic is aimed at ambitious beginners and XC pilots. Everything needed for recreational and XC flying. Upgradable for competitions.
Oudie 4 Basic: more flying hours
A cut down version of the full featured Oudie 4 Full model, to create an instrument that grows with you.
The Oudie 4 Basic takes away competition functionality and more advanced options of the Oudie 4 Full that might overwhelm the less experienced pilot. With a simple software update available to unlock all the features as you progress, your learning curve will be as short as possible.
Built on the same hardware and SeeYou software platform as the Oudie 4 Full, the stripped down Oudie 4 Basic is aimed at the competent XC pilot and the ambitious beginner who knows where they want to get to.
The complete package
Every good pilot knows the value of having the right flight plan, the right navigation instrument and the insights gained from reviewing a flight.
Running the highly regarded SeeYou software, developed for the gliding and free flight community over nearly 20 years, the Oudie 4 is the complete package offering:
- Pre-flight planning
- In-flight navigation
- Post-flight analysis
Oudie keeps you flying - for longer and further…
Benefits
- Exceptionally accurate Vario (Gyro assisted) for the quickest climb rate
- With preloaded worldwide maps and airspace is easy to use and works right out of the box
- Colour screen which remains easy to read even in bright sunlight
- Helps you find lift with the thermal assistant
One picture tells a thousand words, instant situational awareness at a glance…
The Oudie difference
As many experienced pilots will testify, buying a cheap flight instrument actually costs many flying hours over the long run.
The sooner you start flying with an instrument that truly assists you in making the right decisions, the better and longer your flights will become.
- Teaching piloting excellence – let Oudie be your expert co-pilot
- Saves time – on and off the hill
- Works when you need it – Long autonomy, robust and best in class reliability
- Exceptional customer support – we move mountains to keep you flying!
All of which combines to enable better, more skilful piloting, higher performance and the greatest chance of achieving your flight plan, however ambitious a goal you set for yourself.
Sunlight readable LCD with touch panel
Oudie 4 has a bright LCD which is a significant improvement over the standard colour LCDs available in similar devices elsewhere. The screen has an anti-glare coating and is nicely sunlight readable even in direct sunlight. The touch panel can be operated with gloves, no problem.
Feedback
I have been so impressed with everything to do with Naviter: The Oudie is head and shoulders the best instrument for XC and comps, the after sales support is faultless and they are the nicest people to deal with... perfect! Anyone serious about flying paragliders should have one of these.
- Guy Anderson, top UK XC pilot, British paragliding team & PWC pilot
Whether I use it for competitions or for XC-flights, the Oudie is a really good instrument. Light weight, easy to handle and with a long lasting battery. Software and device are of very high quality and that's the reason why I recommend Oudie to friends!
- Michael Sigel, Swiss League pilot and top competition pilot
Thanks to my new Oudie I optimized my flights better than ever, being able to see the radius of the cylinder at all times, with ease of use. It was my first competition with Oudie. It is a great instrument, perfect for competition with large radiuses and arrivals at goal with very little height, I'm very happy.
- Francisco Javier Reina after the PWC Superfinal
Oudie is the device I was looking for. A very nice Variometer and a complete GPS with all the information I need to make top performance in Competition and Cross Country. Easy setting of the task, a nice screen and unlimited settings to create your own page. I like it!
