Flymaster Avionics

Flymaster Avionics, Lda. is a company that designs and makes electronic navigation instruments and software for gliding and ultra light aviation. It is based in Sao Joao da Madeira, Portugal. The company also markets its products worldwide through an online store and a network of distributors and resellers.

The site says all members of the development team are active pilots. They test the instruments themselves on cross country and competition flights. The stated mission is to create value for customers with passion, responsibility, quality and innovation.

Recent news on the site covers several products. The GPS LS2 is described as a new version with built in navigation, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, an app link for iOS and Android, a high resolution display and a loud speaker. It can also add FLARM or ADSL visibility as an option. The LIVE ONE is now available to order in all end user versions.

Flymaster also offers Enhanced Livetracking. This system uses the LIVE C, LIVE DS and LIVE ONE instruments, which carry FLARM. The devices form a mesh network, so a pilot with no mobile signal can still be tracked when other devices pass the data on until it reaches a mobile antenna.

The company also supplies the Flymaster Link App and the Flymaster Instrument Manager software, and it posts firmware updates in a newsletter. The contact page lists separate email addresses for sales, technical support and general information, plus the full postal address and coordinates of the office.
