Aero-TV: Sandia's STX 165 -- Mode C Capability in a Teeny-Tiny Package

Transponder Technology Marches On... And At An Affordable Price!

We have a strong affection for the folks at Sandia Aerospace... a little company that plugs along building great gear with not nearly enough fanfare... and providing excellent values, to boot. Sandia Aerospace was founded in 1997 by a group of avionics professionals to provide high quality avionics products to General, Corporate and Regional airline markets.

Major product offerings include the company's SAE 5-35 Altitude Encoder, SAC 7-35 Airdata Computer,  Avionics Cooling Fans, and MARC 70 interface modules. Sandia products are offered worldwide by both avionics modification centers and aircraft manufactures.

Now, the Albuquerque, New Mexico company is branching out into a line of its own products, starting with the STX-165 Transponder, which is debuting at AirVenture at Oshkosh. The STX 165 Sports a professional 1/2 3ATI Bezel that compliments any aircraft panel.  Its bright OLED display is readable in virtually all lighting conditions and automatically dims for night time operations.

Features:

  • Built-in Encoder -- Simplifies installations and lowers cost.
  • Three Timer Functions -- Elapsed Flight Time, Up Timer, Down Timer
  • Pressure Altitude Display -- See what altitude your transponder is reporting to Center  
  • Optional OAT Probe Input -- Displays Outside Air Temp.,Density Altitude, Icing Alert
  • Small and Light Weight -- 7.4" behind the panel depth, 1.3 lbs.
  • Low Current Requirements -- Ideal for LSA, Glider, UAV Operations
