Overview
The Colibri X is an IGC certified standalone logger with a bright, transflective technology display, which offers
the pilot multiple navigation and vario pages. It is a flight recorder, final glide calculator and navigation system
with an internal battery, audio warnings, vario beeps and voice messages.
The unit is capable of providing APT (airport), TP (turnpoint), and TSK (task) and NRST (nearest landable)
navigation on four dedicated navigational pages. Navigation pages feature Navboxes, which can be
personalised by the pilot to his requirements. Airspace, airports and turnpoint information is shown
graphically.
The Colibri X is designed to sit comfortably in your hand or be mounted with one of our mounts into a space
in your cockpit.
The Colibri has a dedicated pressure sensor for determining your altitude, providing a more accurate altitude
reading in comparison with GPS-altitude based systems. A minimum sampling rate of 100 Hz is applied to all
sensors.
As an integral part, it has a 3.5” sunshine readable transflective LCD display to show all user-defined data
during flight.
For accessing all system options, innovative gestures are used, much like the ones you are used to from your
current phone touchscreen devices. A voice module is also built-in for audio warnings.
We use a high-end capacitive-type touch panel for our device, allowing us the benefits of multi-touch and
giving that high-quality feel of a modern touch-handheld device.
An integral IGC approved flight recorder with ENL level detector will record flights to internal solid-state
memory (16GB). All flights can be copied to an external SD card after the flight.
