IFD510 Is A Slide-In Replacement For Existing GPS500/W Series
GPS Navigators
In what has been described as an agressive move into the
replacement and aftermarket avioncis sector, Avidyne has introduced
the IFD510 SBAS/LPV/RNP-capable GPS Navigation System with touch
screen user interface. The IFD510 is a slide-in replacement for
existing GPS500/W GPS-only navigators found in many turbo-prop and
light jet aircraft, and is an extension of Avidyne’s
recently-announced plug-and-play avionics line, which includes the
IFD540, touch-screen FMS/GPS/NAV/COM.

The new system is being introduced Monday at the 64th NBAA
Convention and Trade Show in Las Vegas.
“The IFD510 is ideally suited for turbine-class aircraft
owners who are looking to move into a higher-capability FMS with an
exceptionally easy to use touch-screen user interface,” said
Patrick Herguth, Avidyne’s Chief Operating Officer.
“Its plug-and-play design means that pilots who have been
flying with GPS500/W series navigators can easily upgrade to the
IFD510 with very little aircraft down time.”
“The IFD510 is a logical extension of our panel-mounted
avionics line, and fits nicely with our strategy of offering
highly-capable, easy-to-use avionics systems for pilots in all
segments of the general aviation market,” said Dan Schwinn,
Avidyne’s President and CEO.
Avidyne also announced today that all of their panel mounted
avionics, including the IFD510, the IFD540, the AMX240 Audio Panel,
and the AXP340 Mode Transponder with ADS-B Out, will be available
with optional Grey bezels which are designed to be more
aesthetically suited to match the other avionics in typical
turbine-class aircraft panels.
