Radiant Digital Altimeter With LCD Screen For 2.25 Mount - Second Generation
MFR Model# RDAL-22-GEN2
Overview
**NOT FAA APPROVED - FOR USE IN EXPERIMENTAL AIRCRAFT ONLY**Rather than acting like a simple one-function altimeter, RDAL provides the builder with a more capable altitude instrument while retaining the familiarity of a dedicated altitude presentation. It is especially attractive when altitude warrants the greatest visual emphasis, but supporting flight data still needs to be readily available in the same instrument. The updated platform allows practical configuration from the front panel. RDAL supports inHg or hPa Kollsman units, °F or °C temperature display, temperature calibration, and G-meter enable/disable in setup. Kollsman is adjusted directly from the front controls, with a standard-pressure reset available from the panel. An external temperature probe is included, and RDAL is available in both 2-1/4 inch and 3-1/8 inch versions for flexible installation. |

Approx 1" to 1-1/8" max with the connector.
It shouldn't have to be calibrated more than once per year and the unit carries a full 3 year warranty.
No. The altimeter is determined by using a solid-state pressure sensor, which by design is not sensitive to changes in temperature.
