Performs all the required tasks for navigation in a low cost package. Value for money but you get what you pay for - you have to hold the device flat when working out the drift calculations - as the translucent screen naturally hovers above the slider preventing you being able to read the scale below. Not that much of an issue really.

Old fashioned but reliable technology - nothing electronic is allowed for your Navigation exam so it's either use one of these or resort to the triangle of velocities... I haven't used it for anything other than finding my heading (and I don't really expect to) but with that caveat, the Microlight Flight Computer does exactly what it says on the tin. This would have been a 5 star review but the instructions leave something to be desired. I had to resort to YouTube to work out how to use it. Other than that niggle, it works well and is far less effort than the triangle of velocities.
