The Blade Difference

As most experienced pilots will testify, the cost of using a “cheap” flight instrument is the loss of many flying hours, miles flown and tasks won. The sooner you start flying with an instrument that truly assists you in making the right decisions, the better and longer your flights will become.

Teaching piloting excellence – let Blade be your expert co-pilot
Saves time – on and off the hill
Works when you need it – long autonomy, robust and best in class reliability
Exceptional customer support – we move mountains to keep you flying!

All of which combine to enable better, more skillful piloting, higher performance, and the greatest chance of achieving your flight plan, however ambitious a goal you set for yourself.

The Complete Package

Every good pilot knows the value of having the right flight plan, the right navigation instrument and the insights gained from reviewing a flight.

When used in combination with SeeYou software, developed for the gliding and free flight community over nearly 20 years, the Blade is the complete package offering:

Pre-flight planning
In-flight navigation
Post-flight analysis

Testimonials

Blade is the answer to all of my flying needs. Whether I use it for a planned XC flight or an exciting competition task, it is my helpful friend who always shows me the right data to succeed in my goal of the day. I was often able to fly the optimum route because I saw the situation better with the data provided from the Blade.
Matjaž Klemenčič, RedBull Athlete

I have been so impressed with everything to do with Naviter: The Oudie is head and shoulders the best instrument for XC and comps, the after sales support is faultless and they are the nicest people to deal with… perfect! Anyone serious about flying paragliders should have one of these.
Guy Anderson, top UK XC pilot, British paragliding team & PWC pilot
