Review: Quality - It is very good and reliable transceiver. Good quality.
Review: It takes it to a new level - So this is not going to be like a normal review. I have a previous Yaesu handheld which I found quite satisfactory. The major drawback, if you can call it that, is that using it in a all-power out backup radio situation would require screwing in an adapter, removing the headset from its airplane jacks, and plugging into the handheld. That is a lot to do while handflying in the dark with a power fail. The bluetooth ability was the key. I tested it and, on my Bose headset it connected on powering up the handheld without any need to press anything (after pairing it) and that is what I wanted. I ended up getting a higher end unit than I initially thought, because I was intrigued by the gps/vor/loc/ils functionality. I tried that on an actual approach, a gps approach, and I looked at the unit on the way down. It was suprisingly accurate, within one dot of lateral and vertical. I actually expected more mismatch just because of the difference between gps and ILS signals. I used it with a phone mount I have in the aircraft. I put the belt clip on, and used that to secure it on the phone mount, but it would have worked without it as well. Bottom line, is, this unit is everything aircraft had before moving map GPS came around, placed into a single battery operated box. Its like a single, hand held survival system for an aircraft. The not so good features? The display definitely bites it. It washes out easily in sunlight (yes, not the kind of weather you are going to need it in in emergencies). It paired with my Bose, but not my earbuds, a bad sign (it didn't even see them). If you do use it in an emergency, you are going to need some fancy footwork, since it cannot do an ILS and talk on the radio at the same time. Its a single channel device. You would need to tell the tower you are going off channel. Finally, no, it is not a legal replacement for ILS. But then a full power fail is an emergency, and you can use it in an emergency. I have an Ipad as well, but that is not going to give a glideslope. Again, its really a marvel what this technology has achieved. I think it is worth the money.

Exactly as expected. Easy to setup and the color screen is easy to read. It takes some reading/practicing to get it up and programmed but the info you need is in the manual, just takes practice.
