Reviews
Works exactly as it should with a Garmin 400w (430w minus the nav/coms). There are a couple EXCELLENT youtube videos showing pilots transferring flight plans from Foreflight to a 430/530. It works perfectly. Complicated plans that would take 10+ minutes to knob in are done in seconds via Foreflight and the 210. Its an expensive box to do just one thing, but Id never operate a GNS unit without it. That was a bit of hyperbole... it does do more than just that one task, but for my specific aircraft, thats all I have it doing.
Great little box. Provides excellent data to three tablets.
Great product, but it has longevity issues. I purchased a new one to replace a unit that failed after 5 years.
