LXNAV PowerMouse-FCC-ADSB
The PowerMouse is a powerful standalone box hidden behind/below the cockpit dashboard which is based on PowerFLARM technology. It has an integrated USB port for easy firmware upgrades and flight log downloads. The built-in Bluetooth module (non USA versions only) works with Android and iOS. A GPS receiver is built-in and an external GPS antenna is included. An IGC flight recorder with internal pressure sensor is an available software upgrade. A version with 2nd Flarm antenna circuit board built-in and 2nd antenna is also available.
U.S. Versions of the PowerMouse
The PowerMouse has received U.S. F.C.C. Approval. Prices for the U.S. versions are higher - as noted at right. The U.S. F.C.C. approved versions do not have Bluetooth. Also, the U.S. F.C.C. approved versions have reverse-polarity SMA FLARM ports (with a pin in the PowerMouse connector and mating hole in the FLARM antenna cable connector).
Differences Between the PowerMouse and the PowerFLARM Core and PowerFLARM Fusion
- The PowerMouse is much smaller than the PowerFLARM Core or PowerFLARM Fusion.
- The PowerMouse has the latest PowerFLARM hardware. The Core has older hardware.
- The PowerMouse IGC Enable is an extra cost option. It is included as standard with the PowerFLARM Core and Fusion.
Note: The PowerMouse's optional IGC Enable includes a logger altimeter calibration data sheet. The PowerFLARM Core and Fusion do not, but I offer it as a $75 option.
Canadian Customers
The PowerMouse is not currently approved for use in Canada. The PowerFLARM Fusion is recommended for use in Canada.
