Feeling “Gs” is a part of flying, be it in a steep turn or when Mother Nature decides to bat the airplane around like it is a cat toy. Radiant Technology is introducing a new Gen2 G-meter that allows pilots to accurately record the intensity of these inflight forces. 

The Gen2 is portable and has a graphing function that displays Gs over time using a color coded scale.
