Customer Reviews

Great (5 stars)
Works great with XGPS150 and Jeppensen Flight Deck on my IPad 2

Fantastic (5 stars)
Works great, solid signal. Great for Aviation use!

Amazing GPS (5 stars)
I sold my BadElf to buy the Dual GPS because I was worried about braking both the GPS and the iPad if I were to hit it against something. I use this every day at work. I am a Flight Instructor and this has made my job easier. Thank you Steve Jobs and all the awesome app developers out there for making my life easier.
