Bvolcko Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 I am building a Sonex Xenos motor glider. I am at the stage where I am starting wiring. I have an MGL Discovery Lite EFIS. I am looking for recommendations on a vario. I was thinking along the lines of Lxnav S8. Thoughts? BV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DermotMcD Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Go all the way and fit an LX8000 or LX9000. Excellent navigation tools for gliding or occasional gliding, especially compared with iPad versions. I use an iPad in my Ximango and while it works OK as a navigational tool, especially if the weather is not too hot and it shuts down, but it does not offer more than a fraction of the information you get on a glide computer. I have an LX8000 in my glider and it's brilliantly easy to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
