IQ COMPEO

Flight instrument with integrated GPS receiver
IQ COMPEO is the new high-end Bräuniger Vario/GPS basing on the experiences of the IQ-COMPETITION/GPS combined with an integrated GPS receiver.
Here you can find actual software and firmware updates for the IQ COMPEO.

 

 
Functions Overview
 

  • Total integrated flight instrument with 16 channel GPS receiver and integrated patch antenna.

  • Robust ABS housing, aerodynamic with soft edges.

  • Integrated NiMh batteries, providing more than 25 hours of usage with GPS receiver clocked with a 1 second update rate. Longer update rates will increase usable operating time. Batteries are quick charge types without memory effect. They can be charged from a wide range AC power outlet or directly from the car or directly by different solar panels.

  • The large display (60mm x 80mm) is a high contrast LCD graphic type with a resolution of 320 x 240 pixel = 1/4 VGA

  • The display offers different analogue and digital readings. The pilot may adjust the displayed data to his own preferences. For each of the 6 user fields, the pilot may choose of a list of different items. These include

  • Wind speed

  • Wind direction

  • Time

  • Flight time

  • Speed over ground

  • Diff. speed between TAS and groundspeed

  • Height over destination

  • Distance to destination

  • Bearing

  • Track

  • Direction to best climbing

  • Temperature

  • A2 (QFE)

  • A3 (cumulated altitude)

  • HPa/inHg

  • L/D Ratio (through air, over ground, to waypoint)

  • Voltage (all time controlled, voltage and remaining battery time is displaid)

GS

  • The keypad helps navigating through an easy menu structure. 2 soft keys are event driven. During flight, the most important settings are performed directly, without navigating through different menus.

  • The audio is adjustable over a wide range. If desired, volume can be automatically controlled by speed.

  • Up to 200 waypoints can be defined.

  • Up to 20 routes, each with 30 waypoints can be stored.

  • Automatic pilot notification, when an FAI cylinder is passed.

  • Automatic navigation to the last best lift

  • Automatic logger start and stop

  • Up to 96 hours of FAI/IGC logger memory

  • 2 different speed sensors may be connected: pressure based speed sensor (pitot tube integrated) to satisfy the requirements of fast hanggliders or speed probe (wheel-type) for paragliders.

  • TEC

  • IR-Interface allows data transfer between IQ COMPEOs. Waypoints and routes can be exchanged easily and quickly without a cable.

  • All user settings can be performed using the keypad.

  • Increased McCready and glide path features

  • Last but not least, the IQ COMPEO offers a perfect "simulation mode” where all features can be tested and simulated. This function allows to become very easy familare with the instrument.

  • The integrated flight calculator allows a guided flight to all memorised waypoints, showing the expected height over target.

  • Dimensions/weight 180 x 96 x 45 mm, 0,425 kg (without fixture)
