Hi there guys

Could anyone answer this for me. Is it not difficult to read the digital instruments/readings on a skydat GX2 when it is a sunny day? Looked at it under a hanger and lights on and it did even then not appear the clear/bold to me.

Thanks
Karl

Hi,
That's an interesting one.
My instuctor (well he will be in 3 weeks time!! vhpy ) used to have an aquilla with a GX2 and he said it was not too difficult to read. (But that's what he says different people = different expeirences.)
I know from when i flew in my instructors trike, CAK, it was easy to read the DX2.
Hope this helps

Hi Karl

I have a startomaster ultra also a big glass display two tone, and one of the flying buds (Frootbat) have a GX2.
I flew with Frootbat when my plane was grounded and had no problem in reading the display in direct sunlight.

On the ultra you can change the display contrast to suite any light conditions.
