-12%

The TX57 Nav/Com unit provide the ideal platform to update legacy avionics or equip your new aircraft.
It housed within a superbly engineered case. At only 33mm high each unit saves valuable space yet contains an impressive selection of practical features for any pilot.
You might be a VFR pilot wanting VOR navigational back up, a flight school seeking an easy to use training platform or a serious VFR/IFR operator looking for reliable digital capabilities.
Trig’s ‘better by design’ approach has created a Nav/Com that meets all these requirements - it will enhance your navigation and communication throughout all phases of flight.


The TX57 includes:
1x TX57 Nav/Com [01578-00-01]
1x Mounting tray and installation kit [02126-00]
1x EASA Form 1


Additional items you will require, but which are not in the TX57 package, include:
- VHF Com antenna and fixing hardware. The TX56 or TX57 are compatible with any standard 50 ohm vertically polarised antenna with a VSWR better than 2.5:1.
- VHF Nav antenna and fixing hardware. The TX56 or TX57 are compatible with any standard 50 ohm horizontally polarised broadband antenna.
- Cables. You need to supply and fabricate all required cables. Guidance on cable types is given in section 5.
- Fixings. To secure the Nav/Com tray to the airframe you will need at least 6 flat head screws and self-locking nuts.
If the aircraft does not have existing mounting provisions you may need to fabricate additional brackets to support the Nav/Com tray.
