    Dream Instrument System

    Hi,

    without any financial restrictions, what would your dream instrument system look like?
    Which Processor, Display, Sensors, Computer, Tablet, etc.

    Curious what you think!

    Add SBG Ellipse D with Tallysman antennas as the backup Compass/GPS solution - full RTK pos/IMU/HDG functionality and much more user friendly than the 3DM.

    And Starlink.
