Maybe I tried to upload too many pictures, Connection was reset.

I am really frustrated with my iFly 700. I had two different problems which may or may not be related.

OS 3.0.11 Version 7.7.7

While on a XC from Arizona to Washington, I experienced two or three gps lockups. On the way back I lost count of the lockups (10+).

The other issue was with part of the map freezing. I would zoom out or in and only part of the map would change. (see pictures). From the pictures you can see that it doesn't matter what orientation the map locks up horizontal or vertical.

I forgot to add that most were lost gps signal, the others were lockups.

I also carried a Garmin 196 as backup, sat it next to the gps antenna (after having the issues) and it did not lose a signal, it was rock solid.

I have also recieved a couple of time the esectional.exe error. (I think sectional started with an e, might have been an x.)
