The IFD-microNET EFIS Plus is the smaller, 57mm (2.25 inch) version of the IFD-NET EFIS range. It is designed to fit into a standard small instrument hole, making it ideal for cramped panels in microlights, gliders, or as a space-saving backup in larger aircraft.
Despite its tiny size, the Plus version is a fully featured "Master" unit that mirrors the software capabilities of its larger 80mm siblings.
Core Description & Capabilities
The "microNET" brand is essentially the 57mm hardware line from IFD-NET. The Plus model is the high-tier version of this hardware, unlocking advanced navigation features:
Multi-Screen Functionality: Unlike the "Base" model, which is fixed to one screen, the Plus allows you to toggle through seven different auxiliary screens using the front buttons.
Embedded POI Database: It contains a database of over 8,000 points of interest (airports and waypoints) across Europe.
Navigation Tools: Includes a GYRO COMPASS screen and a GOTO ADF function based on its internal GPS.
Aviation Gauges: It can be toggled to display dedicated digital "clock-face" gauges for Altimeter, VSI, and ASI.
Master/Slave Support: It can act as a Master unit to drive secondary "Slave" units via a digital bus, allowing for a distributed instrument layout.
Why choose microNET over the 80mm EVO?
Panel Space: If you have an older aircraft with 57mm holes or simply no room for an 80mm unit, the microNET is the only way to get this level of integration.
Weight: It is lighter than the 80mm version, which is critical for strictly weight-limited microlights (SSDRs).
Redundancy: Many pilots use an 80mm "Evo" as their main display and put a 57mm "microNET" in a corner as a completely independent backup horizon.
