Category: Hang Gliding and Paragliding
Class:
Description Condition: New: A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item in its original packaging (where packaging is applicable). Packaging should be the same as what is found in a retail store, unless the item is handmade or was packaged by the manufacturer in non-retail packaging, such as an unprinted box or plastic bag. See the seller's listing for full details. See all condition definitions- opens in a new window or tab ... Read moreabout the condition Brand: Flytec Country/Region of Manufacture: Switzerland Model: Element
Flytec ElementThe Element is perfect blend of functionality, size, weight, ruggedness, battery life ease of use, and user-friendliness.The Flytec Element is the next evolution of the highly popular 6015 with improvements to the display, keypad, USB interface, processing power and memory, as well as overall usability. New features like airspace avoidance and advanced competition navigation are coming soon. The Element is truly the best all-around instrument for hang gliding and paragliding pilots that want to fly higher, further, safer and faster or simply just want to get more out of their flights.PLEASE NOTE: Available in two colors - Green and Red Accents. Please specify color choice with a Message to Seller after the purchase. If no choice is sent, a RED accent one will be sent. Thank you!
