D1 Pocket Panel
With Dynon’s D1 pocket panel, an affordable and reliable backup attitude indicator is within reach for all pilots. Based on the same attitude and heading reference system technology that informs Dynon’s panel-mount displays, the new portable unit provides a true artificial horizon with a level of accuracy and dependability that doesn’t exist with smartphone and tablet apps. Add to that the system’s built-in GPS receiver — which displays groundspeed, altitude and course data — as well as the four-hour battery life, and the unit – priced at $1,425 – could be a lifesaver if something were to go wrong in the soup.
