Today, Garmin goes public on the newest addition to its Connext line of products \u2013 and let me say: it is a game changer. We also have fresh announcements on software updates, database bundles, and promotional discounts for summer 2016.<\/p>\n

Flight Stream 510 with Revolutionary Wi-Fi Database Concierge<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Flig\"flightht Stream 510 is a small, patented Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled MMC card that enables communication between the GTN 650\/750 series and two compatible Apple or Android mobile devices operating Garmin Pilot. Wi-Fi connectivity is used for database transfer, while Bluetooth allows for a wide variety of additional capabilities, including flight plan transfer. All this is crammed into a small data card with no additional wiring necessary.<\/p>\n

New Cost-Effective Garmin Nav Data & Bundles<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"flight<\/a>Flight Stream 510 is just one piece of Garmin\u2019s strategy for making database updates easier. Garmin now offers its own cost-effective navigation databases. These databases are available \u00e0 la carte, or as part of a OnePak database bundle. OnePak bundles are available for all currently supported navigators, primary flights displays, and integrated flight decks. Cost-effective annual subscriptions start as low as $299USD, adding up to thousands of dollars in potential savings.<\/p>\n

All-in-one GNS card Programmer<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While owners of GNS series navigators won\u2019t be able to use the new Flight Stream 510, they can still take advantage of Onepak bundles using Garmin\u2019s new all-in-one card programmer for GNS navigators. This USB device allows you to update Navigation, Terrain, and Obstacle database subscriptions from your own PC by logging into flyGarmin.com.<\/p>\n

G500\/G600 Software Updates and New Features\"G500<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n

In the latest software version, G500\/G600 owners will get yet another new feature to help them easily keep databases up-to-date. With database synchronization, Primary flight displays and GTN navigators will automatically synchronize after the first is updated. Simply update one, and the others will follow.<\/p>\n

Even better, GTX 345 ADS-B transponders now interface with G500\/G600 flight displays to show ADS-B \u201cIn\u201d traffic and weather. For new installations, the G500\/G600 software update also adds support for the new GSU 75 ADAHRS. The GSU 75 ADAHRS combines previous air data & attitude and heading reference units, reducing wiring and installation complexity with a single unit design.<\/p>\n

GTN750\/650 Software Updates and New Features<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"GTN<\/a>GTN owners get an especially exciting collection of new features in the latest update. Telligence Voice Command controls the GTN via Spoken Commands using a separate push-to-command button. When paired with GMA\u2122 35\/GMA 350 audio panels Telligence now accepts hundreds of commands at the push of a button. New software also includes support for Flight Stream 510, database synchronization, voice commands, pinch-to-zoom, and for those with a GSR 56 data link: phone calls over headset via paired apple devices.<\/p>\n

Summer Promotions and Discounts<\/strong><\/h2>\n
