SWFA UH-1 / SW204 / SW205 / SW205T UPGRADE AND MODERNIZATION
RADAR ART 2100 AVIONIC UPGRADE
- Setting a new standard in value and performance, the RDR 2100 Digital Weather Radar provides a vertical picture of a pilot-selected cross- section of the storm, offering the best view available to general aviation. The simple press of a button allows you to analyze a storm segment vertically, giving you the information you need to determine the scope of the storm.
- You can examine the angle of the cell's leading edge to determine direction of movement, monitor the tops of cells to see how quickly a storm is building, and easily distinguish between ground and weather returns. The system is fully stabilized to +/- 30° combined pitch and roll, and antenna stabilization keeps your screen clear of ground returns during moderate aircraft maneuvers. You can choose between two antennas, a 10-inch or 12-inch, to fit a wide variety of airframe applications
- The RDR 2100 uses intuitive colors (green, yellow, red, magenta), and six ranges (10 nm to 320 nm) to depict the weather intensity, creating a clear picture of the weather and making it easy for you to avoid danger. The horizontal scan provides an angle of 120°; the vertical scan an angle of 60°. Using Sensitivity Time Logic, the system can correlate target distance with intensity, and its attenuation compensation reduces shadowing.
- The system is fully Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) compatible using ARINC 429 and ARINC 453 data busses. It also features a Multi-Function Display (MFD) interface, fault annunciation, TILT readout on display, and independent dual indicator operation.
