Garmin GLO for Aviation GPS Receiver

The Garmin GLO, a portable GPS and GLONASS^* receiver that brings Garmin’s industry-leading GPS technology to mobile devices.

GLO wirelessly connects to Apple and Android devices via Bluetooth. It offers up to 12 hours of battery life and a position update rate of up to 10 times per second (update rate may be limited by the host device). This is approximately 10 times faster than the internal GPS receivers of most mobile devices. And, Garmin GLO is approved by Apple for use with its products.

When using both GPS and GLONASS satellites, the time it takes for the receiver to "lock on" to a position is, on average, approximately 20 percent faster than using GPS alone. Furthermore, when using both GPS and GLONASS, the receiver has access to 24 more satellites than using GPS alone.

Garmin has developed a special Garmin GLO for Aviation package. The Garmin GLO for Aviation package comes with:

Garmin GLO receiver
Anti-skid mount
Power cable
USB cable
Free six-month trial for Garmin Pilot, the newest aviation navigation app for Apple and Android mobile devices

Unit Size (WxHxD): .70 x 1.65 x 3.04 inches (1.78 x 4.19 x 7.72 cm)

^*GLONASS or Global Navigation Satellite System, is a radio-based satellite navigation system operated for the Russian government by the Russian Aerospace Defence Forces. It both complements and provides an alternative to the United States' Global Positioning System (GPS) and is currently the only alternative navigational system in operation with global coverage and of comparable precision.

Good but has design flaws
by Mark Miller from Camarillo, CA
Pros: Does everything it says in the literature
Cons: ON switch design is flawed, light is too bright, no battery level indicator, only hooks to one device at a time.
Review: The product works as advertised. However, there are some problems. The ON and OFF switch are programed backwards. To prevent accidental turn-on in the flight bag draining the battery, the ON switch should be a push and hold to turn it on rather than momentary (programing flaw). The button should also be recessed to prevent accidental turn on and drain of battery in flight bag (mechanical design flaw). The blue light is also way too bright for night flight. Also, there should be a battery level indicator. These are such problems I inserted a folded business card to protect the switch and hide half of the light (just slide the card back and forth in the rubber dash mount) - kinda mickey mouse but it works. Also, the Bad Elf Pro receiver will hook up 5 units at once so you can use your iphone as a back up to your ipad when using Foreflight which is very nice.

Run good with my Minipad
by Eric from Auberry CA USA
Cons: Does not come with a 110 volt charger, I think it comes as an option. When charging the unit is on you can not turn it off to charge it. At night have to turn it over because of the led light is very bright but it works good upside down. Gets turned on easy when the switch gets bumped then it is dead when you need it. . ited
Review: Does the GPS job.

by Ramon - Sportcrcuiser flyer from Miami FL USA
Pros: Very fast and accurate, link in a flash with the Sat.
Cons: the power on button is very sensitive and could be power on inside a bag and discharge the battery.
Review: Excellent, link with the sat inside the apartment, work fast and great.
Some problem is the power on button is very sensitive and could be power on inside a bag and discharge the battery.
For the price, it's the best.

Good...but
by A Customer from Van nuys CA
Pros: Size, connectivity flawless, works like you expect
Review: Worked right out of the box. Five stars but for one glaring mistake and two annoyances. The on off switch is in wrong location and can be inadvertently turned on in a pocket or bag so when you need it it is dead. The blue and amber lights are too bright for night operations and reflect off the windshield if it is on top of the glareshield. You can turn the GPS over but there needs to be non skid feet on top and bottom to do this satisfactorily. (Yes I know there is a non skid mount, but why.) Lastly there is no way to know the battery status.
