I bought one at Oshkosh 2010. Loved the software. Wasn't too sure about the Bluetooth device sending data to my autopilot. Flew with it two or three times. After numerous calls to customer support, we couldn't get the Bluetooth to sync reliably, and often spent 10 minutes or more with the engine running trying to get a gps signal at the autopilot. The last straw was a bright sunny day. Even after I put a ballcap over the display, the sunlight washed it out! I sent the unit back for a refund, and got hit with a $250 restocking fee, and it took four phone calls during a three month period before I finally got my credit card credited!

I really like the people at control vision, but I was very dissatisfied with this transaction!
