Aspen Evolution E5

Aspen Evolution E5

Simplifying the transition from old-style vacuum gauges to electronic displays, the Evolution E5 is a drop-in replacement that gives you advanced functionality with easy and affordable upgrades that allow you to add additional capabilities and take advantage of future technologies without replacing your existing display.  

Evolution e5 Dual Electronic Flight Instrument Features

Versatile Performance – presents attitude information with altitude, airspeed, vertical speed plus HSI  into a single display with a backup battery. Includes Global Positioning System (GPSS) Steering, and attitude heading reference system (ADAHRS)

New advanced features –  Unlock the true power of the E5 now featuring a standard HSI and optional True Airspeed, Outside Air Temperature, Winds, and GPS annunciations through a simple software upgrade

Flexible installation options –  the E5 is approved for IFR flight when installed with a panel-mounted IFR GPS.  When installed without a panel mount GPS the E5 is approved for VFR flight only.

Reliable - With redesigned electronics and new glass, the Evolution E5 has a bolder and brighter display and offers higher reliability, more capability and increased processing speed all while retaining Aspen’s unique form factor design that keeps installation costs down

Affordable and easy to purchase – real glass for under $5K and available through aviation retailers

Compatible – works with your panel’s existing avionics

Autopilot Avionics – interfaces to the new TruTrak Vizion Autopilot and is compatible with most legacy autopilots (Optional ACU and EA100 may be needed depending upon autopilot type.)

Simple Installation – the unique form-fit factor design slides into existing panel—one install does it all

Upgradeable – affordably upgrade to the Pro MAX and add other features such as ADS-B, Angle of Attack, Synthetic Vision and Hazard Awareness with an easy upgrade path that leverages your Evolution E5 investment without unit replacement
