SALE: Now that LXNAV has just announced this new ADI2.  That makes the original ADI units in my stock somewhat obsolete.  However, that leads to a great deal for you.  Note that the ADI does a few things that that ADI2 can't.

LXNAV’s first round display, built in standard 57 mm and 80 mm sizes, features an integrated OAT sensor and a built-in backup battery providing up to 3 hours of operation.

EASA Certified – STC for 494 Aircraft Types & Models

Overview
This is a fantastic looking airspeed indicator and altimeter with OAT sensor and simple variometer display. 
Note that there is no way to connect a Total Energy probe to the ADI2, so the vario is not TE compensated. 

Features:

  • Airspeed indicator
  • Altimeter
  • Vario (not TE compensated - no TE port on unit)
  • Configurable color airspeed markings and units
  • 3 hour backup battery
  • Very bright display
  • OAT (outside air temperature) sensor
  • Built-in Wi-Fi - for software updates only
  • Airspeed dial zero can be at the top (12 o'clock) or bottom (6 o'clock)
  • Personalize the dial, background and text colors:
    • Black background with white markings and text
    • White/grey background with black markings and text

User Interface

  • Rotary knob with push-button function

Airspeed
The ADI2 offers three true airspeed calculation modes.

  • Altitude Only provides a standard fallback when no OAT probe is available
  • Altitude + OAT delivers enhanced accuracy by correcting for density changes
  • Altitude + OAT + Compressibility ensures top-level precision for faster aircraft by factoring in air compressibility effects.

Altimeter
The ADI2 features a high-precision 24-bit barometric sensor with a 10–1200 hPa range, delivering altitude resolution down to 10 cm for exceptionally accurate atmospheric and elevation measurements. QNH can be adjusted quickly and intuitively using the rotary knob.

Variometer
The ADI2 includes a customizable variometer, featuring adjustable vario filter settings for fine-tuned response and configurable vertical speed units (fpm, m/s, or knots).

Customizable Dial Coloring
The ADI2 allows pilots to define custom speed arcs and markings fully in line with CS 22 (AMC 22.1545), ensuring clear and compliant visual guidance. Additional markings can be entered, for example, to indicate different maximum flap speeds for various flap settings. For specific speeds, simply refer to your airplane’s flight manual, typically found in Section 2.

Important Note from ADI2 Manuals

"An additional electronic flight display (e.g. electronic variometer, navigation computer or final glide calculator) needs to be installed and configured to be able to show indicated Airspeed (IAS) and barometric altitude simultaneously on one page. To reduce the probability of failure of both systems at the same time, this additional system shall not be an ADI2, as well.

Recommend devices for additional flight display are following: LX90xx or LX80xx series and S-vario series. This list is not complete, installer needs to check each system installed on the aircraft for the suitability."

Any LXNAV S7, S8, S80, S10, S100, V8 or V80 vario, or LX80x0 or LX90x0 flight computer would be able to display the indicated airspeed and altitude.

Differences between the ADI2 and the original ADI 

  • The ADI2 has a larger display - fully round (not clipped on the side) using all the space in the instrument hole.
  • The ADI2 has EASA approvals and reciprocal FAA approvals.  The original ADI doesn't.
  • The ADI2 has a built-in backup battery with up to 3 hours of operation
  • The original ADI has altitude warnings, the ADI2 doesn't.
  • The original ADI could be configured for altitude dependent Vne.  The ADI2 can't, because certification wouldn't be possible with that functionality.
  • The original ADI is much less expensive than the ADI2 - especially now that they are on-sale.

Included:

  • Power Cable with DB-9 connector
    • 12V Power wires
    • OAT (outside air temperature probe) - attached to main wiring harness
  • Mounting screws (M4)
  • Printed manual (provided by Cumulus Soaring, Inc.)
