The Dual XGPS160 SkyPro brings GPS capability to your Apple iPad/iPod touch/iPhone, Android phones and tablets, Blackberry phones, Windows devices and laptops running Windows, OS X or Linux. If you have several phones/tablets/laptops in your household, and you’re looking for one GPS to work with them all, the XGPS160 is an excellent choice. The Dual XGPS160 works with popular electronic flight bag apps including EFB, ForeFlight, WingX Pro, and many others.
The Dual XGPS160 is very easy to use. Once you have paired via Bluetooth, the Dual GPS Receiver will automatically connect to the device it was last paired with and you will be able to use it with hundreds of apps that require GPS location information. The XGPS160 also comes with a useful GPS Status Tool app that is available free on the iTunes store and will show your location, the number of satellites you are connected to, the battery level, and more.

in heavy tree cover. In town signal strong when around tall buildings. Even tracks
when in a 3 story parking structure. Being able to run when using USB while Mapping Roads with out draining Battery. Great for finding POTA & SOTA

Didn't meet my expectations
- By Derek from UK United Kingdom on Thursday, June 22, 2017
- Pros:
- Review: I bought this product to interface into my iPad and use with JEPPFD-Pro. The interface worked perfectly, however, I have struggled to get continuous satellite coverage. I fly the A330 around Europe and the USA. It will lock on and give coverage for 90 minutes with no issues and then for the remainder of the flight no coverage at all. This has happened across the Atlantic and also within Europe.

- By Bear from Thailand on Tuesday, February 23, 2021
- Pros: Small and light. Rubber base will not slide on most level surfaces.
- Cons: Status LED’s a little bright for night flight, but just flipping the unit upside down at night works fine. I personally would like the battery to last long for flights (14hours) but we keep it plugged into a usb charger at all times.
- Review: Used this unit for years until smashed by maintenance somehow. Flew all over the world for years and no complaints. Just here now to buy a replacement.
