We are very pleased to announce new display options for G3X Touch systems. The new GDU 450 and GDU 455 displays are state-of-the-art 7? diagonal, high performance, infrared touch screen displays designed from the ground up to be the highest quality, best performing, and easiest to use displays in the industry.
The new 7" display complements the existing 10.6" G3X Touch display, offering new panel design options and redundancy.
GDU 46X 10.6" and GDU 45X 7" Displays
Using a very similar user interface, the same controls, and even the same powerful internal electronics as the larger GDU 460/465 10.6" displays, the GDU 45X displays are the perfect way to expand your G3X touch panel. One to three displays of any mix of GDU 45X 7" and GDU 46X 10.6" displays are supported for a G3X Touch system.
Dual GDU 45X 7" Displays

The new GDU 45X 7"displays provide the same features and connections (same connectors on back) as the GDU 46X 10.6" displays including wireless connectivity, composite video input, built-in high performance WAAS GPS receiver, built-in SXM weather receiver (GDU 455/465 only) and wireless interfacing to control a VIRB action camera.
The bright, high resolution WVGA 800 x 480 pixel display used on the GDU 45X 7"display uses a similar high strength glass surface to the GDU 46X 10.6" display that resists flexing and prevents "pooling" when touched to result in a premium user experience. The LCD glass is manufactured to be a perfect match to the GDU 46X 10.6" display and provides the same rich, vibrant colors you have seen on the GDU 46X. The same high quality dual concentric rotary encoders are used on both the GDU 45X and GDU 46X displays and are similar to those used on certified G3X system components like the GTN 650/750.
The image below shows the installation dimensions (inches) of the panel cut out and outer bezel for both G3X Touch display options.
Also new, G3X Touch offers the benefits of Connext cockpit connectivity. Pilots are offered the convenience of flight planning on a tablet using Garmin Pilot? and the simplicity of wirelessly transferring flight plans via Bluetooth? to the G3X Touch system. A G3X Touch system with a GDL 39/39R ADS-B traffic and weather receiver shares GPS, attitude, traffic and weather data with a mobile device for display using Garmin Pilot. You can have much of the the same data displayed on your phone or tablet that is being used on your panel mount displays.
A well-equipped, 7-inch G3X Touch system, which includes SVX, video input, a built-in WAAS GPS receiver, ADAHRS, magnetometer, OAT probe, interactive mapping and more, starts at $4,599 Minimum Advertised Price.
A single GDU 450 display can be added to a G3X Touch system for $3,400 Minimum Advertised Price. Connext capability via Bluetooth is provisioned in G3X Touch hardware. Full support for Connext and GDU 45X availability is anticipated in Q4 2014. Customers may also take advantage of low database prices starting at $49.99/yr for G3X and G3X Touch.

Come see us at Oshkosh! We have several G3X Touch systems to demonstrate and will be giving seminars every day to answer your questions.
Thanks,
Steve
