LIGHT. SIMPLE. FEATURE PACKED.
The GPS LS was created to provide novice through to experienced pilots with a light and simple instrument yet with lots of features. It showcases almost everything that the most expensive instruments available feature – but for a much more affordable price.
As the unit has an inbuilt velcro strip on the rear, this device comes with a velcro, riser mounted application including safety tether, as shown on this flight review for the Vario LS device and you can simply attach this on and off your cockpit or instrument plate with absolute ease.
In the event that you’re looking to expand your range of attachment opportunities, you have the Parapocket (bracket only) and Legpocket (strap only) options at your disposal! This ensures that your device is always in your field of vision, with its unique heads-up display style!
