Title: Frame friendly external spot plane view solution
Post by: Vectro on March 16, 2011, 12:31:24 AM
Hi,

I thought that this could be something that everybody could use.
We installed new USB plug & play display adapter, then undocked new spot plane view to this window. Everything works very well.

Here is the test video: (sorry about the cheezy music  ;) )

And here is the display adapter:

and yes, we normally fly the pilot door closed.  :)

You can pick up the B-Stock ones near the bottom of the page.  U12's are $30, U16's are $40.  I bought 3 12's last year, they work fine.  I think difference in models is only max resolution so check your intended use before ordering.
