RADIANT Technology, headed by James Wiebe, has just announced a new pocket-sized artificial horizon instrument. Measuring less than 3” square, this extremely portable unit is called the “Flight Sensor Pack”. It combines other common aircraft instrumentation in one unit: artificial horizon, altimeter, G meter, variometer, VSI, provides density altitude values, ambient temperature as well as pitch and roll. Also, a graphing display shows values accumulated over time. It is powered by an internal rechargeable battery and can be used as a backup instrument for flight. Easy to operate and can be charged via a USB charging port. Price is $299.95 For more information, visit: www.radiantinstruments.com
