Colibri Colibri GPS Flight Recorder, Version 4 (IGC Approved)
This new version offers some very nice new features. 
  • Built-in microSD card reader - New
    Can be used to transfer flights, Turnpoint and Task data and flight info.  Includes a 32 MB TransFlash card and microSD/TransFlash to SD card adapter so that the very small memory card can be read with an SD card reader.
  • USB Connector for connecting to PC
    This is a very nice feature because most new laptops do not have RS-232 serial ports.  Not only can you transfer data over USB, but the USB connection also powers the Colibri so no 12V power converter is required.  The same RJ connector as found on version 3 Colibri units is used when in the glider for connecting the Colibri to 12V power and a flight computer or Pocket PC.
  • New Membrane Keyboard
    The new keyboard has 2 new keys that make it easier to do task declarations and change pilot/glider data.
  • Pilot and Glider Data
    The Colibri can now store data for up to 100 pilots and 30 gliders.  That makes it ideal for soaring club use.

Very small but capable flight logger.  This unit is very popular. 
A remote mountable antenna is included.  It plugs into the bottom of the unit and may be mounted on the unit using Velcro or double-sided tape or anywhere in the glider with a good view of the sky.
Dimensions: Width: 59 mm (2.323"),  Height 35 mm (1.378"),  Depth: 98 mm (3.858")
Weight: 200 g (7 oz)
Memory: 50 hours with a 12 sec recording interval (15,000 log points) 16.667 hours with a 4 second interval
Database 600 waypoints, 100 tasks, 4500 airfields, 100 pilots, 30 gliders
Included:

  • Colibri GPS/Flight Recorder
  • Antenna for GPS with 1.4 m (56 inch) cable with BNC connector
  • USB Cable for data transfer with PC.  The Colibri is also powered by this cable when connected to the PC.
  • Power Cable for use in glider
  • PDA Cable for connecting to an LXIPQ PDA wiring harness
  • PC Cable (12V power supply not included)
  • Mounting Plate with retaining screw

  • Soft protective case for Colibri
  • Manual

Tom Rent's Review
Tom Rent is a Schweizer 1-35C pilot from Minnesota who created a nice online write-up on the Colibri.  It can be found here: Colibri.htm

Option to Shorten the GPS Antenna Cable
The Colibri comes with an external antenna with a 1.4 m (56 inch) cable.  Many customers Velcro the antenna to the top of the Colibri and don't need that much cable.  I can shorten the cable to any length you desire.  I charge $19.95 for the new BNC connector and labor.  You can select the cable length when you place your order. There is also an option for a BNC-RA BNC elbow adapter for $9.95 (see drawing below).  With the BNC elbow adapter the minimum recommended antenna cable length is 8 inches (20.3 cm).  Without the optional elbow adapter 10 inches (25.4 cm) is the minimum recommended antenna cable length.

Power Supply Not Included
If your PC does not have a USB port you can connect to the PC using the included RS-232 PC serial data cable.  The Colibri comes with an impressive list of accessories, but it does not include a 12V "wall charger" (120 VAC to 12V DC converter) for powering the unit when using the PC Cable at home.  I recommend the optional Pwr-12V-500mA power supply found below. 
Note: The power supply is not required if you connect the Colibri to your PC through the USB port because the USB connection powers the Colibri.  However, when the Colibri is powered though the USB port the menus are not accessible using the keypad and LCD display.  The Colibri must be powered with a 12V power source if you want to check the GPS or play with the unit before you fly.  Therefore, the optional 12V wall power supply is a good idea if you want to play with the Colibri at home without connecting it to your glider battery.  The supplied "PC Cable" can be used to connect the wall power supply to the Colibri.

Colibri-BB Colibri-BB (Black Box) GPS Flight Recorder, Version 3 (IGC Approved)
This "black box" version does not have a keypad or LCD display.  It is otherwise identical to the version 3 model of the Colibri.  The version 3 model has an RS-232 serial port only for connection to a PC.  It does not have a USB port as found on the version 4 models.  The lack of a keyboard and LCD display make this unit extremely easy to use - just plug it in and go fly.  However, task declarations and flight downloads must be done using a PC or Pocket PC.
History: This version was originally designed as a low cost version of the Colibri, but the cost was almost the same and low demand made it expensive to market - so the price is now the same as the full version of the Colibri.

Very small but capable IGC approvedl flight logger.

A remote mountable antenna is included.  It plugs into the bottom of the unit and may be mounted on the unit using Velcro or double-sided tape or anywhere in the glider with a good view of the sky.

LX160si LX 160si Vario/Flight Computer
The LX160si is an interesting product because it starts off at a very simple, low cost level but can be upgraded in the future to include a GPS or IGC approved flight recorder and even a Pocket PC running soaring flight software.  See the Flight Computer Comparison page to see example systems.  The basic system includes a variometer with audio, averager and speed-to-fly data and an a panel mounted control unit with switches that are used to set the final glide parameters.  It will manually count down the remaining distance to go.  It is great for soaring clubs. 

By adding a Colibri or Filser LX 20 you get a system which gets destination distance from the GPS and you now have a system with an IGC approved flight recorder. 

The addition of the soaring flight software on a Pocket PC adds a graphical moving map with reachable airports highlighted on the map.  The soaring flight software provides final glide data so the switches on the front of the LX160si are not needed for final glide computations.  The LX160si provides 5V power for the Pocket PC so no external 12V to 5V power converter is required. 

The LX160si can airspeed and variometer data into the NMEA data stream and send it to the PDA.  SeeYou Mobile and WinPilot can use that data.

The "si" version of the LX160 is different from the original version because it has new connectors on the back to make it easier to connect to a Colibri and Pocket PC.  It also can provide 5V power (2 A) for the Pocket PC - previous models couldn't do that.

· LCD Display
· Electric Vario with Audio
· Speed to fly and Averager
· Final Glide Calculator with NMEA input from any GPS
· Easy to read display
· 2 X 57mm instrument cut-out
· Read-out +/- 10 Knots
· Temperature range -20°C to 70°C
· Operating voltage 9-16 Vdc
· Power consumption: 110 mA @ 12V
· Easy to use 3 position switches
· Provides 5V (2A) power for a Pocket PC.
· Fully compatible with the new SeeYou Mobile
. Now fully compatible with WinPilot (V2.12)

Includes an external speaker which is very similar to this one.

LX1600 LX 1600 Vario/Flight Computer
A nice small electric vario with averager, audio and speed-to-fly.  This units does not include a GPS so it is generally used with a Colibri or Filser LX 20, but most any GPS will work.  All cables are included for connecting to those units.  When connected to a GPS it can send GPS and flight data to the Pocket PC. MacCready setting and other parameters can be edited with the buttons on the front of the unit, but it works best when connected to a Pocket PC running flyWithCE Navigator or SeeYou Mobile.  A cable is included for connecting to an iPAQ 2200, 3800, 3900, 4000, or 5000 series Pocket PC.  The LX 1600 provides 5V power for the Pocket PC. Includes an external speaker which is very similar to this one.

The LX1600 can airspeed and variometer data into the NMEA data stream and send it to the PDA.  SeeYou Mobile and WinPilot can use that data.

Note: Software, Pocket PC and Pocket PC cradle not included.

SD Card Interface - New
The SD Card interface makes LX 7007 absolute autonomous. All possible data transfers may be done by the standard SD card. There simply is no need to connect the laptop to your LX 7007 anymore. All units delivered after August 2006 are equipped with the card reader interface and one SD card. It is also available as a simple and cost effective upgrade of the existing LX 7007 units. As it is a non integrated device it may be installed anywhere in the cockpit.

The following SD Card data transfer functions are available:

  • Flight download
  • TP/TSK upload and download
  • Airport and Airspace database upload
  • Flight info (declaration) upload and download
  • Settings upload and download

The LX7007 Pro IGC is the replacement for the LX7000 Pro IGC.  New features include a faster processor, the ability to power a PDA with 5V power and perhaps (I'm not certain) more memory for flight logs, waypoint and airspace files.  A single cable connects to a PDA and provides GPS data and 5V power.  Data exchange is also possible with a Colibri using a single cable which powers the Colibri.
The LX7007 Pro IGC is a complete soaring flight computer with IGC approved GPS flight recorder, moving map display, variometer, speed-to-fly and averager.  This is the ultimate soaring system for pilots who prefer not to use a Pocket PC in the cockpit.  The large 240 x 160 pixel display offers graphics that are easy to read in the cockpit.  Complete support for Turn Area Tasks (Assigned Area Tasks).
Flight Recorder Memory: 190 hours with a 12 second recording interval (684,000 log points) 63 hours with a 4 second recording interval.  Includes an external speaker which is very similar to this one.
Includes SeeYou version 1.9.  That is not the latest version of SeeYou, but having a license for version 1.9 gives you the option to upgrade to the latest version of SeeYou for about $88.

LXVoiceModule Voice Module for LX7007 and LX8000
The LX Voice Module was developed to make LX 7007 pro IGC and LX8000 units even more user friendly by providing voice warnings and information generated by the built in voice synthesizer.

The LX Voice Module does not require the external power supply.  There are also no additional speakers necessary as the built in audio mixer makes the existing vario speaker also available for the voice.

Hardware Configuration
A suitable aluminum black box (55x22x75mm) may be installed anywhere in the cockpit. Three digital inputs also allow connection of other external sensors providing e.g. landing gear or air brakes status signals

LX7007 or LX8000 Optional Voice Module
The unit is powered and controlled via the LX system bus. The existing speaker should only be reconnected from the LX 7007 or LX8000 output to the Voice Module output. The unit includes the audio mixer controlled by the LX 7007 or LX8000 to reduce the vario volume during the Voice Module active time. The mixer setting is controlled entirely by the pilot. The LX 7007 or LX8000 with Flarm option also provides Flarm warnings to the Voice Module.

Technical data:

  • Power: 12 V DC from LX 7007 bus, consumption 20mA without audio
  • Layout: 55x22x75mm
  • 3 inputs
  • SD card data storage medium
  • Audio mixer controlled by LX 7007 or LX8000
