SUPERFAST INTELLIVARIO
The Intellivario is a revolutionary system designed by Digifly which is based on the use of
sophisticated digital filters. This results in a very sensitive vario and is immune to radio
interference. All the variometric functions are subject to these filters.
The Digifly Archimede Plus has a very fast pressure sensor and an excellent data
acquisition system that allows the instrument to perform as a very fast and accurate
vario (updated 20 times a second).
