The Oshkosh News Blitz Begins! SANDIA Aerospace Intros 2 New Transponders

Teeny-Tiny Cost-Effective Transponders From Sandia

We're not quite sure what they're feeding people in NM these days, but the state has become a nexus of avionics innovation... such as the news that there is a NEW small-form factor Transponder Sheriff in town. SANDIA Aerospace, an Albuquerque based avionics manufacturer, has announced a new Mode C Transponder with built-in encoder.

The small and light weight STX 165 sports a ½ 3ATI front bezel and measures approximately 7” inches behind the panel depth. The small panel space requirement allows the STX 165 to be mounted outside of the center stack, reserving that space for other avionics.

In addition to displaying transponder code, the STX 165 also displays Pressure Altitude, Three timer functions and (with the addition of an optional OAT Probe), Outside Air Temperature, Density Altitude and even an icing alert. The STX 165 has an introductory list price of $1700.

Sandia is also introducing a remote version, the STX165R. The STX165R is ideal for interfacing with onboard Nav Management systems and for use in UAV applications. Starting next Monday, you can see the STX at a little place called Oshkosh (you MAY have heard of it) in Hangar C Booth, number 3007.
