The KFD 840 Primary Flight Display offers a wide range of advanced features and a large, 8.4” screen – at a breakthrough price. Sized for easy installation in existing Part 23 piston-engine aircraft, the KFD 840 will replace all the analog instruments in the steam gauge "six pack" with minimal down-time. It will interface with most existing autopilots, GPS receivers, and navigation radios. And, with an SD card slot on the side of the bezel, it is designed to support your avionics needs well into the future.
The KFD 840 is a fully self-sufficient unit with an embedded Air Data module and MEMS Attitude and Heading Reference System (ADAHRS). In the event of loss of aircraft electrical power, the optional battery backup will keep power to the ADAHRS for full availability of all attitude, heading and air data functions to the pilot.
The KFD 840 features separate course and heading knobs and menu-driven “hybrid” keys across the bottom of the bezel. The number of button pushes and menu selections are designed to be minimal and intuitive to the pilot. Information becomes available at the touch of a button or a simple turn of the knob.
