FrSky ADV VARI Variometer Sensor is an original FrSky product from the FrSky telemetry and sensor range family. This page is organized for practical buying decisions, with the fit, RF protocol, channel count, voltage, compatible accessories and installation role presented clearly.
It is suited for telemetry monitoring, engine data, current, voltage, RPM, GPS or flight performance feedback. The information focuses on what an end customer needs to choose confidently, without exposing supplier pricing or directing the customer away from RC-MODEL.
Key Advantages
- FrSky ADVANCE (ADV) series has comprehensive sensor types and enhanced the performance and capability of the original sensor line, all ADV sensors fully support FBUS protocol and they are also S.Port compatible. With the FBUS protocol, the ADV sensors can be seamlessly paired with the FBUS capable receiver and further simplifying the builds setup.
- The VARI ADV variometer sensor calculates the altitude from atmospheric pressure, and atmospheric pressure will get lower as you go up in altitude, with using this the sensor can measure the altitude up to 10000 meters with an accuracy tolerance of 0.1 meters. An exact measurement cannot be performed if atmospheric pressure changes in weather.
