RADIANT Technology introduces a new GEN2 G-Meter, which is portable and inexpensive. It includes a graphing function, which displays Gs over time using a color-coded scale. This makes it easy and fun to see what the aircraft and occupants are experiencing and also helps student pilots understand acceleration during turns.

With introductory pricing of $149.00, the G-Meter is ideal for any pilot or aircraft. The device may be attached with Velcro to the panel of any airplane (Velcro is included). An optional holster for 3 1/8” instrument holes is available separately for $49.00. This new product is in stock and ready to ship.

It is available for purchase at Aircraft Spruce here: https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/pspages/radiant_gmeter.php

“A visualization of G force is useful and fun for any pilot, but is especially valuable for student pilots,” said James Wiebe, CEO of RADIANT Technology. “We did a market survey of various competitive products and could not find any with graphing and needle modes, especially at a reasonable price. Because this product is self-powered and attached using Velcro (or an optional holster), it can be used in any aircraft. I think users will love and use this product.”

Here are the specs and features of the product:

+8 to -8G range

Current, minimum and maximum values always displayed

Graphing mode and classic needle

Audible alarm

Users may set color coding levels (EG: +4.0 / -2.0 for Red)

Dimmable screen

USB rechargeable battery (cable included)

Operates for 5 hours on a single charge

Weight is 2 ounces (57 grams)

Portable

Part Numbers are:

RGM-023-GEN2 part # for unit

FSP-22-GCP-PM part # for 3 1/8” holster

Usage is very simple. Mount on a vertical surface. Turn on; the unit will display current, minimum and maximum Gs. Pressing the “next” button switches between graphing mode and needle mode. The needle and the graphing mode are color-coded and will change to red at +4 or -2 G's. An aural alarm also sounds, which may be muted by briefly pressing the speaker button.

The battery works for five hours and is USB rechargeable, with cable included.
