Equip your club gliders

Era is perfect for club gliders. The installation and use is simple and intuitive without compromising any features.

Super smart yet simple

From ground up, we reinvented the graphic user interface and made the user experience simple yet sophisticated.

Replace old vario system

The Era was designed as upgrade of older vario-navigation units and will fit into the standard instrument panel cutouts. 

Feature packed system

IGC + ENL flight recorder, G-meter, full navigation, backup battery and more you just can't go wrong.
Installation and configuration

The back is as important as the front

LX navigation strives to develop easy to use as well as easy to install gliding instruments. To provide clear functions and actions, we mark every button or rotary knob.

The same applies to the back of the device, where we mark each port. The installation and wiring should not take more than 30 minutes of your time.

Single CAN BUS cable accessories

LX navigation uses CAN BUS interface to deliver power and data to any device connected in the loop which means pilot can setup a new add on within minutes.

Connect a small, compact AHRS module via single CAN BUS cable to Era CAN port on the back of the device and AHRS page will appear.
User interface

Select your color theme

Our development team works hand in hand with visual and graphics department to design the most versatile and straight forward user interface. 

We strive to make your flight better, longer and safer with ability for you to focus on one single thing that really matters, gliding.
Backup & memory

Backup battery is our standard

All our devices come with backup battery in case of electrical failure with at least 3 hours of battery juice inside.

We have been able to save numerous competition flights with backup battery power and made it a standard, because we understand how important it is, to have a backup.

Transflective

On the Era 80

2 push buttons, 2 rotary push buttons

We designed the smart and intuitive button layout for the best user-experience in the cockpit.

Simple control over the complex device

User experience is superb, as you move through pages with rotary knob and select your options with push function. Each page is designed to be readable and clear to understand.

The biggest transflective display on the market

Transflective display technology is the best to use in cockpit. And we did it. The Era has the biggest display in 80 mm device on the market.

Connectivity is the key

We strive to make our instruments easy to install and use. That is why we use CAN bus to connect our devices.

Just in case, you have backup

It is always smart to have a backup. That’s why the Era has a backup battery and an IGC approved flight recorder built inside.

Plug & play accessories

Choose between multiple LX accessories, all designed to be simply connected via CAN and ready to use.

Full navigation with Nearest landable page

Era comes with full navigation to Turnpoint (TP), Airport (APT), Task (TSK) and Nearest landable (NRST) which will navigate you at any given moment to the nearest landable point with airspace support on all navigation pages.

Thermal assistant

Once pilot enters the thermal and starts to circle, Thermal assistant page will appear on the main screen. In the centre, is the relative direction of the wind with its direction and speed. On the left side of the screen is the Indicated airspeed tape and on the right side is the Altitude tape. Follow the bigger red circles to hit the centre of the thermal.

Configuration of the main page

Pilot can choose which information will be displayed and 2 or 4 information layout. Always visible are clock, outside air temperature (OAT), wind, battery and status icons. "VAR" marks the current vario mode which can be Vario (VAR) or Speed command (SC).

Unlock the full potential

Connect your Era to an LX Joy

"Plug and play" ergonomic Joystick with hand-stitched leather finish will improve the dynamics in the cockpit and make pilots workload even easier. Control all the functions with clever 5-way central button and dedicated buttons for:
  • Up/down/left/right/push to confirm central button
  • BOX button will change the NavBox view
  • X button will exit the current menu
  • MC button will enter the MacCready, Bugs and Ballast setup
