Operation Manual IQ-MOTOR-eco GPS 2.2 2.2.1 Variometer functions Analog-Vario The most important indication for a non-motor driven aircraft is without any doubt the Variometer. It displays the vertical speed in meter/second and informs the pilot about the actual climb or sink rate. It is only possible for the pilot by using the Vario (and its accompanying acoustics) to determine the most efficient thermal climb, and in the opposite situation, to recognise when he is sinking too rapidly in downwind which he should leave at best speed. The scale of the analogue display is consistently 0,2 m/s over...
