Cost-effective remote mount transponders for
G3X™ and G3X Touch are feature-rich and integrate with multiple
displays
Garmin International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN),
today announced the GTX 35R, which meets Automatic Dependent
Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Out requirements and the GTX 45R
that offers ADS-B Out, as well as ADS-B In benefits. Designed
specifically for experimental amateur-built (EAB) and light sport
aircraft (LSA), these new transponders are tightly integrated and
controlled by G3X and G3X Touch systems. The GTX 45R unlocks more
capabilities for pilots by displaying ADS-B traffic,
subscription-free weather1, GPS position data and attitude
information within select Garmin portables and mobile applications
via Bluetooth® and Connext® wireless technology. Hard-wired display
interfaces for the GTX 45R include G3X Touch, the GTN™ 650/750
touchscreen series, GNS 430W/530W navigators and select
portables.

“The wildly popular GTX 345 all-in-one ADS-B transponders for
certified aircraft proved to be the all-inclusive solution that
thousands of pilots had been waiting for and now we’re bringing
that same integrated and wireless experience to the experimental
market,” said Carl Wolf, Garmin vice president of aviation sales
and marketing. “The remote-mount GTX 45R/35R transponders are
lightweight, easy to install and have greater integration potential
than any other solutions on the market so pilots can easily take
advantage of the benefits offered by ADS-B at an economical
price.”
Sport aircraft owners can take advantage of a straightforward,
easy-to-install transponder that meets modern airspace initiatives
around the world. Configuration and control of the remote-mounted
GTX 45R/35R is provided through the display of G3X or G3X
Touch systems, which offers seamless cockpit integration. The GTX
45R interfaces with G3X Touch, the GTN 650/750 and GNS
430W/530W to display ADS-B traffic and subscription-free Flight
Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B) weather on these systems,
while the GTX 35R offers a simple path to achieve ADS-B Out. Up to
three G3X Touch displays and a GTN or GNS WAAS navigator can be
hard-wired to the GTX 45R to display ADS-B In benefits
simultaneously. For aircraft without a compatible position source,
the cost-effective GPS 20A WAAS GPS position source can be utilized
by the GTX 45R/35R to meet ADS-B Out requirements.
The GTX 45R interfaces with G3X Touch, GTN or a GNS WAAS
navigator to display ADS-B In traffic, incorporating exclusive
features such as TargetTrend™ and TerminalTraffic™. The
GTX 45R includes a dual-link ADS-B receiver that provides
pilots with a complete picture of ADS-B-equipped traffic, while
subscription-free FIS-B weather can be overlaid across all of the
displays on top of dynamic moving maps with reference to airspace,
terrain, flight plan information and more. FIS-B weather products
include NEXRAD, METARs, TAFs, PIREPs, winds and temperatures aloft,
NOTAMs, AIRMETs and SIGMETs.
In addition to ADS-B traffic and FIS-B weather, the GTX 45R can
wirelessly provide precise GPS position data and attitude
information. Both wireless and wired interfaces are available for
the popular aera® 660 and aera 796/795 aviation portables, as well
as wireless connectivity for mobile applications including Garmin
Pilot™ and ForeFlight Mobile. Customers can also take advantage of
additional wireless features, such as flight plan transfer, built
into the G3X Touch display.
G3X and GTN 625 promotion for new customers
Customers can take advantage of a new promotion that offers
significant savings when a new G3X or G3X Touch glass flight
