Quick Start Guide

Epic Eagle 1

We advise users to store the Epic Eagle HUD in an environment away 

from direct sunlight when not in use or for extended periods of time. 

When power is applied to the HUD, a cooling fan is activated. The         op-

eration of the fan enables the HUD to operate even in extreme heat from 

direct sunlight. When not powered, the fan does not run and it should be 

treated with the same care as you would any other consumer electronics 

device. Post flight, we recommend operators should take it off the 

glareshield and place back into the storage bag. We strongly recommend 

not leaving in a hot aircraft cabin for extended periods of time.
