- The FlightHawk handheld cable & antenna analyzer
- Bird’s 5017D-AV wideband power
sensor – designed specifically to test aircraft RF systems - All necessary adapters and cabling.
Just the Essentials
The FH-AV-BASIC Kit includes a FlightHawk cable & antenna analyzer, rugged case, and FlightHawk Cal combo. It forgoes the adapters, load, and power sensor of the FH-AV-KIT. This kit is ideal for teams looking to have an extra FlightHawk for ground staff, or those bringing their own accessories.
Optional Software
Automatic Test Mode
When performing standard tests on an aircraft, especially when tests will be performed by non-experts, the FlightHawk optional Automated Mode is ideal. In conjunction with an aircraft technical manual, this mode provides simple pass/fail results for aircraft RF hardware like ATC/DME, HF, ILS Glideslope & Localizer, marker beacon, radar altimeter, SATCOM, TCAS, VHF, and VOR.
It quickly identifies problems, while retaining the standard FlightHawk UI as an Advanced Mode.
