GPS sensors are all very well however these will only ever measure your aeroplanes speed over the ground rather than its true airspeed which, of course, is crucial in warning of an approaching stall. Downwind turns, dead-stick forced landings and even regular landing approaches are prime candidates for errors of judgement in relation to observed ground speed and perceived airspeed, indeed many, many model aircraft have been crashed as a result. Well, with the adjustable warning thresholds provided by the new Multiplex True Airspeed and Vario Sensor costly stall accidents could be a thing of the past. Moreover, by measurement of the ambient pressure the precision vario gives you real-time feedback on your models altitude.

Would this 'M-link 85418' air speed indicator work on Spektrum telemetry?
Thanks Terry Lee
Asked by Terry Lee on 8th August 2022
This will only work with m-link receivers im afraid.

Can you tell me if this will work with a Spektrum AR8360T receiver and DX9 Black edition please ? - I currently use the Spektrum unit and have been considering a second one, but I see these have been discontinued !
Asked by Andry Deacon on 5th December 2023
This will only work with the M-LINK 85418 radio gear.
