uAvionix AV-30: Now IFR and Wireless

The latest uAvionix AV-30 retrofit flight instrument has grown in capability from earlier versions and now has a capable IFR interface that’s compatible with WAAS navigators, autopilots, and traffic receivers and also has a wireless interface with iPads running the ForeFlight app. AvBrief’s Larry Anglisano caught up with Shane Woodson at the 2026 Aircraft Electronics Association trade show and convention for a demo.

One thing that uavionx should consider is a ipad or tablet app to control all the AV30 functions like the app from Avidyne.

i bet if they could figure something out to relive the small sized screens on their product many folks would be very interested

Just because you can squeeze all that information on a small display does not mean that you should. I agree with Bruce.

And I have an Avidyne in my C-180 and I have the Avidyne app but only use it to transfer a flight plan (sometimes). I use the iPad to run FlyQ. It has everything that I need or want to display and it’s fed by the IFD-440 which mainly supplies the WAAS signal to the iPad.
