MORE INSTRUMENTS AND INSTALLATION SUPPLIES

MGL Avionics specializes in the design and manufacture of computerized, electronic instrumentation for the use in light aircraft. These instruments are available under the Stratomaster label.
HORIZON/COMPASS Attitude/Heading Indicators
Meet the World's most lightweight and compact, fully integrated inertial measurement instruments (IMU's) and digital compasses. Stratomaster Maxi Singles combine the most advanced and miniaturized components for magnetic field and intertial measurement in a compact format weighing in at less than 150 grams.
This combines three gyros, up to three axis accelerometers and a three axis magnetometer plus two independent micro processor systems all in one small housing.
The Stratomaster Maxi Singles are a range of 3.5" instruments designed to do much, much more than your traditional 3" analog instruments. These digital instruments incorporate analog style graphical elements (such as bar graphs), but add intelligence from the microprocessor age. Instruments are backlit and sunlight readable and require 12V power. Most instruments use between only 50 and 150 mA of power. THIS INSTRUMENT CAN FIT A STD ROUND 3 1/8" CUTOUT.

HORIZON/COMPASS Attitude / Heading Indicators
Meet the World’s most lightweight and compact, fully integrated inertial measurement instruments (IMU’s) and digital compasses.
We combine the most advanced and miniaturized components for magnetic field and intertial measurement in a compact format weighing in at less than 150 grams.
We use our AV-2 airtalk computer, a Stratomaster Maxi Single programmed with an application program that lets you choose what you want to display. Horizon, Turn & Bank, or a compass - as you wish, and each mode has options and additional, useful functions.
The display options depend on the attitude / heading sensor package you select...
Attitude/Heading Sensors:
Depending on what attitude / heading sensor packages you choose, you will have the following features on your instrument:
AV-2 Maxi Single Display, $180.00

AV-1 Smart Singles
The Stratomaster Smart Singles are a range of 2 1/4” instruments designed to do much, much more than your traditional 2 1/4” analog instruments. These digital instruments incorporate analog style graphical elements (such as bar graphs), but add intelligence from the microprocessor age (12V power required). (Octagonal hole required in panel). Backlit and sunlight readable. Click here for sizing popup

AV-1 Smart Single Display, $140.00
The Stratomaster Smart Singles are a range of 2 1/4" instruments designed to do much, much more than your traditional 2 1/4" analog instruments. These digital instruments incorporate analog style graphical elements (such as bar graphs), but add intelligence from the microprocessor age (12V power required). Scroll down to view all the Smart Singles available and to see just how much computing power some of these instruments offer. (Octagonal hole required in panel). Backlit and sunlight readable.
Completely solid-state, these units do not rely on traditional mechanical gyro systems. This means no limitation during usage, full 360 degrees operability in both pitch and bank. These units represent the future in aircraft horizon systems at a price that is making everything else obsolete.

With the SP-4 and SP-2 sensor packages you can add additional AV-2 Maxi Singles (or even 2.25” AV-1 Smart Singles) for separate Compass and Turn/Slip Indicators.
Or how about one SP-4 and one SP-2 unit and six AV-2 displays?
You can have two Horizons, two Turn/Slips and two Compasses all at the same time.

Attitude/Heading Sensors:
Depending on what attitude / heading sensor packages you choose, you will have the following features on your instrument:

SP-2 Sensor: Tilt-compensated magnetic compass SP-4 Sensor: Attitude indication and turn/bank indication
With the SP-4 and SP-2 sensor packages you can add additional AV-2 Maxi Singles (or even 2.25” AV-1 Smart Singles) for separate Compass and Turn/Slip Indicators.
Note: you can display attitude, heading, turn co-ord, and slip/skid on 1 AV-2 or AV-1. If you would like to split up functionality you could have 1 display that shows only compass and one that only shows attitude. You can connect up 6 displays to one sensor pack.
add AHRS Sensors:
SP-2 Sensor: Tilt-compensated magnetic compass $200.00
SP-4 Sensor: Attitude indication and turn/bank indication $900.00
SP-2 Sensor plus SP-4 Sensor Full AHRS $1100.00
