AIR DATA UNIT

ACCESSORIES

The Air Data Unit is used to measure pitot airspeed


and barometric altitude in fixed wing aircraft. It features
high accuracy temperature calibrated pitot and static air
data sensors and outputs data over RS232. It can be used
standalone or connected to one of Advanced Navigation’s
Spatial series of GNSS/INS products for outstanding
navigation accuracy in fixed wing aircraft when GNSS is not
available.
