Purchase Inquiry: Syride SYS-Nav XL Paragliding Flight Computer

The design intent was a lofty goal: meet the expectations of pilots who wanted to keep the compactness of the SYS'Nav while benefiting from the functions and technologies of the SYS'Evolution.

The result is clear. The all new SYS'Nav XL is today the most versatile and lightest instrument on the market. Whether you are a beginner, an XC pilot, a Hike’n’Fly pilot, a Vol Bivouac pilot, an adventurer, a PPG pilot or a competitor, the SYS'Nav XL will be an ideal companion during the entire career of a pilot.

This new product does not come alone, in addition to the launch of this very innovative instrument, Syride also announces a new mobile application as well as new functions on the website!

A new generation screen:

This is the first thing you’ll notice when you take a SYS'Nav XL in your hands. 30% larger than its little brother’s, the 2.7'' screen has an active matrix reflective technology similar to the one used in the SYS'Evolution. The advantages for the pilot are clear:

• Optimum readability outdoors (the more sun, the more contrast)
• Lower consumption (80% less than a traditional screen and no need for back lighting)

Moreover, the resolution of the screen (400x200 pixels) has been dramatically improved (22 times more precise than the SYS'Nav V3 screen) with a spacing between each pixel of 0.147mm (by comparison, it is 0.152mm on the SYS'Evolution). The pilot can display more information and details on the same screen. The display is also more pleasant to the eye.

Versatile Bluetooth connectivity:

With Syride's experience in the connectivity of the SYS'Evolution, it was difficult to imagine a new instrument without Bluetooth. It remains for Syride the best solution to connect to the internet and use peripherals on a flight instrument. Here is an overview of pilots will be able to do with Bluetooth:

• Live tracking on syride.com: https://www.syride.com/en/live (with Syride application using GPS data from the instrument)

• Send your flights automatically to your Syride profile as soon as you land and upload your IGC file to contests (via Syride application)

• Get inflight wind reports on your instrument (via application Syride)
• New: Scan the QR Code of a navigation route to send it in the SYS'Nav XL (via Syride application)

• New: Share Vario and GPS data with 3rd party application (such as XCTrack or FlySkyHy) to save battery of your phone/tablet. Currently working with XCTrack

New: Connect to external peripherals... More info to come!

This connectivity brings a lot of versatility to the instrument and allows to meet the expectations of many pilots (competitors, Hike’n’fly, XC, ...).

The next chapter is still to be written, thanks to the connectivity of the instrument that leaves many perspectives open for the future evolution of the instrument.

Screen Customization: 

 More versatile, with a wide choice of sizes, re-sizable items, the ability to add text and frames. 

The SYS’Nav inherits items from the SYS'Evolution such as the much-appreciated thermal assistant, the competition route summary, the vario graph...

To simplify the pilot’s tasks and limit in-flight handling, Syride has added the possibility to change the screen automatically depending on the current flight phase: thermalling, in transition, approaching an airspace or approaching a waypoint’s cylinder.  The pilot can now focus on flying instead of manipulating buttons in flight.

Audio improvements:

SYS'Nav XL features a more powerful 1 Watt speaker with softer, more harmonious tonality. Custom configuration is always possible with Syride's online tool. 

USB-C connectivity: 

Expected for its simplicity of use and its reversibility, the SYS’Nav XL now has a USB type C plug. A new plastic injection mold had to be produced to support these new evolutions (screen, speaker, USB...).

The file management has also been completely revised! It will be possible to communicate with the SYS'PC TOOL software as before, but also to access the flight data (IGC files) as if a USB disk had been connected.

The pilot gains in convenience, he will be able to use his existing phone or action cam cable to connect the instrument and will not have to use the SYS'PC Tool software to access the flight files.

More powerful battery and a dedicated charge manager:

The surface of the electronic board has been reduced to accommodate a battery with a capacity 40% higher than the SYS'Nav V3 (850mAh against 600mAh), it is essential to meet the needs of the quality speaker. It is the level of the sound volume and the activation of the sink sound that will have the most impact on the battery life of the SYS'Nav XL!

The addition of a dedicated charge manager allows to have a very precise state of the battery charge value. Voltage variations will not affect the displayed information.

Thinner Velcros and featherweight:

New thinner and lighter velcros have been adopted on the SYS'Nav XL for its attachment (risers or cockpit). Despite the addition of new technologies, the instrument is now thinner and lighter than a SYS'Nav V3 by 10%! It weighs only 81gr including the attachment system.

3D is coming on syride.com

This will make visualization of the flight data more interactive on syride.com by integrating the views in 3 dimensions. The result should please a large number of pilots because it allows to easily re-live flights in a very immersive way! You’ll need a recent computer for a smooth replay. Otherwise, recent smart phones ahve more performance, and should be able to replay your flights. 

The SYS'Nav XL is designed to take you from your first flights through epic cross country adventures, competitions, FAI world records and the highest highs!
