[CA] [CA11] STLK Fail Lightning Issue

svbloom,

Q1. Will be be able to display the exact same info on the 2nd and 3rd i70S, essentially rendering it an acceptable replacement fo the i50 and i60?
A1. Yes. Installation of the i50 and i60 instruments would certainly be more limiting with regard to what these instruments could display when compared to replacing them with i70S MFIDs and an iTC-5. The i70S MFIDs are capable of doing all that the i50 and i50 instruments are capable of and more. the i70S MFIDs in conjunction with an iTC-5 would also support multi-point STW calibration, permitting accuracy of the reported STW across greater range of speeds. In short my personal preference is for the system to feature a series of i70/i70S MFIDs rather than included i50 & i60 instruments.
