Avidyne IFD540 is designed to be used as a slide-in upgrade for older Garmin 530W. No wiring or changes required. This will significantly save installation time and money. You will have a much more advanced touch screen GPS/NAV/COMM.

Unit is in very good condition. No wear marks. Clean display. (Please see the photos) Removed by Cirrus Service Center.

If you are upgrading we can trade in via eBay transaction for GNS 530W as well. 

You can also install it as a fresh install. If you need a tray, backplate and connectors for this unit please check our auction Item: 116421116531. I’ll give you a discount for buying multiple items.

IFD-540 has 3D exo-centric Synthetic Vision. “VFR-Like” view of what’s in front of your aircraft displaying 3D terrain with hazard alerting, obstacles, and nearby traffic. Everything you need to see on a bright, easy-to-view 5.7” touchscreen. (This feature is not available in the even more expensive Garmin GTN650 or GTN750.)

Hybrid touch screens are very useful for pilots. You have the convenience of the touchscreen and in some flight conditions you can use buttons (when touchscreen is not convenient to use).

Its award-winning Page & Tab user interface eliminates nested menus, allowing you to go to any page in two clicks or less. Its innovative Hybrid Touch allows pilots to perform virtually all functions using its knobs and buttons, or via the versatile touch screen interface—giving you the choice based on user preference. 

Another advantage is this unit has in-built bluetooth allowing you to transfer your flight plan directly from your phone or tablet. 

Wireless integration with Avidyne’s IFD 100 iPad app. It is a very nice feature. App is a replica of the unit and you can view and change anything in the much larger ipad and your changes automatically change in the IFD-540.

This unit is $18,000 new without the tray or backplate. You can save over $6000 buying this like new unit.

Fast free shipping. We will ship within one business day via a secure method with full insurance. Full insurance and secure shipping costs us a lot but your item is protected.
