My analog clock shorted out and this looked like a great upgrade. Being digital, well lighted and having a timer and flight timer as well as a usb port are great features and definitely worth any added expense over an analog.

Flight Data Gt-50 With USB
Great unit! The order was delayed through the manufacturer, And I received fantastic communication by the company keeping me informed of what the problem was and when to expect it in. When the unit came it, its very well made. Machined metal housing and excellent construction, as well as packed full of features in a very small case. Can’t say enough good things about Flight Data Systems.

Flight Data Gt-50 With USB
This multi function G-meter, clock, temperature, volt meter, timer is amazing. I used it to replace the original clock that failed in my Aviat Husky and I love it. How or why this very impressive machined aluminum case instrument is sold for 1/3 the price of the cheap clock it replaced is a mystery. The USB port even charges my IPhone while I fly. This GT-50 is the best buy in aviation.

What a great lightweight, reliable, multi-function instrument. I love the way I can see batter voltage and the auto- tracking of power-on time. Really easy to install and reduces drain on the battery.

Very nice unit with good function, good looks, easy to use and easy to install. I replaced an analog clock with this digital clock, timer, g-meter and am very pleased. Current draw is extremely low so no concern about battery drain over long periods of inactivity.
