iFly GPS Forum

The iFly 700 is a very good GPS NAV device. I have had one in my RV9 for at least 5 years. I believe it was one of the factory refurbished one at that time. I also have a Garmin 396 in the radio stack and actually use the iFly 700 closer in view along side the Dynon 180. For me that was the most difficult task to be able to get the 700 somewhere i could get a good visual. Not as clear as the 720 but still good. The portrait position also helped me utilize the 700. I would However draw the line with the 700 as being suitable for a serial device connection for ADS B. I have not had total success with the 700 as that platform. It will work but not without a lot of problems with system processing and i believe it to be short on memory for that service. My experience has been with the SkyRadar DX . I placed a number of post on the SkyRadar forum concerning my effort to get this working so far without complete success. I actually would like to sell this 700 say $250 and buy the iFly 720 Interested? Without a doubt the 700 is probably the best VFR value out there for a simple to use NAV / map/ GPS. The latest software works great on the older 700 . I have no regrets with the 700 at all. Dennis

You are aware there are two sizes to the iPad, are you not? I've been happily using a full-size iPad in my cockpit for 3 years. But at this point there are probably more mini users, at least the newer ones. I expect the expansion of iFly's product line to include the iPad and Android platforms is a response to the sheer numbers of users who disagree with you.
