# Introduction

You are discovering today the Syride Solar, a **compact, lightweight and autonomous variometer**, designed to accompany you on all your flights.

Specifically designed for this purpose, the Solar combines a **high-precision pressure sensor** with a **3-axis accelerometer and magnetometer**, offering **extremely responsive and stable lift detection**, even in turbulent conditions. Its **integrated solar charging** allows it to operate sustainably with a minimum of constraints.

Thanks to its **Bluetooth connectivity**, the Solar connects directly to the Syride Link application, allowing the **configuration of the instrument**, **automatic flight recording**, **live tracking** and access to the **Syride flight book**.

The Solar can also transmit vario information in real time to your favorite flight applications, such as **XCTrack** or **FlySkyHy**. Connected to your smartphone, it becomes a **complete system combining the precision of the Syride variometer and the GPS capabilities of third-party applications**.

The Solar was designed with a clear objective: to offer a **simple, reliable and efficient instrument**, allowing you to fully focus on what matters most — flying.

The entire Syride team wishes you wonderful flights.
