The XC Tracer Maxx III sets a new standard for flight instruments, combining advanced technology with Swiss craftsmanship to deliver an unmatched flying experience.

Much Larger, High-Resolution Display

Developed in partnership with a leading Japanese multinational, the Maxx III features a custom Memory-in-Pixel (MIP) screen that’s 64% larger than its predecessor and boasts 250 DPI resolution. Expect razor-sharp clarity even in direct sunlight with ultra-low power consumption—all in a lightweight, pilot-friendly design.

Adaptive Terrain Visualization & Valley Winds

Navigate with confidence thanks to adaptive hillshading that adjusts with the sun’s position for greater terrain awareness and improved route planning. Spot thermals more effectively and assess potential valley wind patternswithout cluttering your screen or draining your battery.

Riser-Mounted Remote Control

Stay in control without compromise. The compact remote attaches directly to your risers, allowing you to switch screens or zoom in and out quickly—no need to let go of your brakes or fumble with the device mid-flight.

Swiss Quality, Proven Heritage

The Maxx III builds on XC Tracer’s legacy of fast vario response, long battery life, and intuitive usability. Each unit is meticulously crafted in Switzerland, ensuring the reliability and precision trusted by pilots worldwide.
