The Flytec Balloon 4 is the newest vario, dedicated for ballooning, built for balloonists. It is the successor of the well-known Flytec 3040 and Flytec 6040. Specially developed with only the required functions built-in, for easy use without having to read a manual.
The Flytec Balloon 4 has fast and precise GPS reception, and to measure the envelope temperature, the Flytec Balloon 4 is compatible with recent Flytec TT34 transmitters (ask for more info). The robust and reliable instrument is fitted with a, especially in direct sunlight, good readable display. The high precision and sensitivity of the pressure measurement improves the reliability of the altitude and climb and sink rate. Also the battery life is optimized, for longer use.

A beautiful warm amber glow is the perfect match with your burner flame, and gives you the ability to read the values on your vario in any situation - either on that take off before sunrise, a flight towards the sunset on a serene evening, or in the middle of the night in your gas balloon anywhere in the world.
