With the KTX2-S-Basic, customers then have the option of purchasing a Mode-S transponder without ADS-B Out.
The transponder can be upgraded to include the ADS-B Out function at any time.
For the upgrade, the unit does not have to be uninstalled and sent in; it can be activated by a code (available in our websop).
As a Class 1 Transponder with an operational range up to 35.000ft and 250kt the KTX2 is ideal not only for microlight aircraft and gliders, but also for a major part of aircraft of general aviation up to 12500lbs MTOW (VFR and IFR).
The fully re-engineered KTX2 is a super light weight, compact model S transponder with low current consumption and a premium TFT-colour display.
Regardless of whether it is used in sport, microlight aircraft, gliders or balloons - the KTX2 offers maximum possible safety due to provision of precise position and ID-data for the air traffic control and other air traffic participants. As a result, the KTX2 is a reliable device to prevent collisions.
