AvMap introduced their EKP V portable navigation unit at last year’s convention. It was expected to be released in November, 2010 at about $2,000. The release appears to be delayed, but it is a very versatile unit. It has a 7″ display with 800 X 480 resolution, it has WAAS GPS functionality, maps with terrain avoidance, aircraft checklists, simulation mode, customizable display and it’s compatible with XM weather.
A docking station allows interface with an autopilot, EIS, EFIS and other devices. A progressive joystick and smart wheel selector provides a unique controller for interfacing with the unit, and a full visual keyboard can be activated.
