  • Lightweight at < 6 oz (170 g)

Key features

How it works

The μQAR records a copy of the data provided to the Flight Data Recorder (FDR) for easy retrieval in Flight Operations Quality Assurance (FOQA) systems. The data stored in the CF card can then be transferred into a third-party FOQA/FDM (Flight Data Management) system for analysis. The recorder can be adapted for custom configurations.

Small and lightweight, but a powerful tool for data transfer

The μQAR may look small and unassuming, but it gets the data flowing easily with its many features and options. The μQAR features optional bi-polar or bi-phase inputs, optional data wrapping and data sensing, optional USB output from main connector or a standard USB jack, and optional electrical connector configurations. AC and DC versions are available. Quite a lot from a device that weighs less than six ounces.
