Sale Items
Overview
I do my best to keep a good stock of the latest high-tech gadgets. But
yesterdays latest toy is out of date today and worth less than when it
was new. The page includes a combination of new but slightly out of
date items and a used items.
My plan is to keep reducing the prices on
this page until all the items sell. The items will sell to the first person
that orders them at the listed price. Please don't contact me with offers.
The longer you wait, the lower the prices, but I have only 1 or 2 of most
items - so if you wait too long someone will buy the item you are interested
in before you.
Limited Availability
The items on this page are all units in my stock. When they are sold
the price is no longer available. I cannot order additional units for
sale at these liquidation prices.

Borgelt-DAD-L |
Digital Average Display
(DAD) for B400 - Large
Sale - These units are somewhat obsolete - since the B400 and B500 have
been replaced by the B700 and B800.
This is a highly recommended option for the B400. You
can press a button on the B400 to see the 20 second average, but it is
much easier to view this external LCD display. If you have never
flown with a variometer that has an averager you will be surprised how
useful an averager is. It really helps you determine the average
climb rate even when half your circle is in lift and half is in sink.

| Borgelt-PDA-PS |
PDA/Logger Power/Data
Connection Module with Serial Data Combiner
Sale - These work fine with either the B500 or B800. I
have reduced the price to get them out of my inventory.
Note: This unit is an option when ordering a B500.
This unit is "plug and play" and takes power and data from the B500
system and provides 5 V power and data for a PDA and 12 V power and data
for a GPS flight recorder. The PDA and GPS connectors are wired
using soaring industry standard DB-9 connectors. A switch is
provided for connecting the GPS flight computer to the PDA for task
declarations and flight log downloads or for connecting B500 composite
GPS/air data to the PDA. Provision has also been made for
connection to the B2500 flight computer. This 2nd generation
version of the PDA_PS is designed to be mounted in the instrument panel.
The nuts on the DB-9 connector are used to secure it to the panel.
The 4 switches and PC connector are then easy to access. That
makes it easy to connect a PC to the B500 for setup and data transfer.
This unit does not include the power/data cables for connecting to a PDA
or GPS. The Serial Data Combiner is mounted on the PDA_PS and allows
your PDA or B2000/B2500 to utilize GPS and other data (including
pressure altitude) from a logger or FLARM unit while still receiving
B500 air data and configuration information.Panel Mounted Switches and Connectors

Compaq Aero 1500 Pocket
PC -
New &
Used
I have purchased a few of these classic and valuable Pocket PCs from
customers that traded up to other devices. Many glider pilots
still love this old PDA because its black and white display is easier to
read in sunlight than newer color PDAs. Glide Navigator II soaring
flight software runs great on it. All the units have been
thoroughly tested and approved by Cumulus Soaring, Inc.
Let me know if you have any good,
used power/data cables or cradles for the Compaq Aero 1500 PDAs. I
need any I can find because the power/data connectors used in the cables
are no longer available.
All units include:
- Good screen with no major
defects or deep scratches - some units with defects are available at
a lower cost
- Wall charger
- Desktop cradle (not for use in a
glider)
- Good (as far as I can tell) main
battery
- New main battery
- New backup battery
- Soft case
- Stylus
- All buttons tested
- Serial port tested
Note: Many used Compaq Aero 1500
units have a broken cover for the backup battery. Many require the
use of tape to keep them closed. It is not a problem. |

ILEC-SN10-2-Used |
ILEC SN10-2 2nd-Seat
Repeater - Used
This unit had the screen replaced at ILEC in Germany in the spring of
2008 and was lost in transit for many months. It is in perfect working
condition. This is a fantastic deal for someone that wants a spare
backup unit, or has a 2-seat glider that needs a 2nd seat repeater to go
with an existing SN10B in the front seat. The RAZ vario meter is not
included but is available for $175. The required wiring harness is not
included but is available for $80. For a total of $620 + $175 + 80 =
$875 you get a complete system. That is $620 off the $1495 price of a
new system. Note: This is not an independent SN10 system. It is the
2nd-seat "slave" to an SN10B. Please send me an e-mail if you are
interested in buying it. You can see details on the SN10-2 here:

MCRing304CZ-17m |
Winter MacCready Ring
for 304 CZ-17m, 57mm
I'm not sure how I ended up with this extra ring, but I don't need
it. It is designed for use on a standard 57 mm Winter W-5453 variometer
in knots. It does not include a bezel ring, but they are available if
necessary. Most Winter variometers made in recent years already include
the necessary grooved bezel ring. A set like this one normally sells for
$83. I am selling it for $45. The MacCready type ring is an indispensable aid in cross-country soaring.
The ring is rotatable and is marked with speeds and a white triangle.
The chief use of the MacCready ring is to achieve the highest possible
cruising speed (average cross-country flying speed) on thermal cross-country
flights. This involves setting the white arrow to the anticipated rate
of climb for the next thermal. Optimum flight performance is assured
when the airspeed indicated by the airspeed indicator corresponds to the preselected
flying speed to which the MacCready ring has been set. The
MacCready ring allows gliding distance and final approach to be
optimized. Please refer to relevant literature for further
details. When ordering, please do not forget to state the type of
aircraft in which the ring will be used. If the ring is
retrofitted to a variometer of older design, the original threaded ring
of the instrument must be removed and replaced by a grooved threaded
ring onto which the MacCready ring can be fixed with ease. |
