Regardless of being used for flight planning, ground schools, and knowledge testing, the menu configuration reflects the sequences of flight normally planned and performed to create a natural flow from one function to the next function with minimal keystroke. The CX-3 flight computer can perform multiple aviation functions, such as time, speed, distance, direction, wind, fuel, altitude, headstand, standard atmosphere, glide. In addition to the holding pattern function that helps you determine how to enter and hold details to climb and descend, the weight and balance and holding pattern function. It also has a built-in calculator, clock, timer, and stopwatch that incorporates multiple settings such as lighting, backlight, theme, scroll speed and time zone. The CX-3 sleek design and ergonomic fit and finish make it easy to carry. The protective cover slides off from the front and snaps into the back of the computer. Anti-skid strip prevents the CX-3 from slipping off on smooth desk surface. The theme feature allows you to easily switch from standard view to night view or daylight view. The backlight function controls the brightness and intensity of the screen, and the keypad buttons will light up in dusk and night mode for use in dark environments. Favorite features allow quick access to most frequently used functions, and store the aircraft profile, and save the aircraft-specific number. Package includes CX-3 flight computer, 4 AAA batteries, protective cover, and quick start guide.

Review: This is fab! - Amazing product. Loaded with features. Great user interface. Simple to use.
Review: The ASA CX3 is a must-have for any pilot in training or even seasoned aviators who want a fast, reliable E6B alternative. It’s incredibly intuitive much easier to use than older flight computers, and the interface is clean and straightforward. I’ve used it for everything from flight planning to in-flight recalculations, and it hasn’t let me down once. It handles weight and balance, wind correction, true airspeed, density altitude, fuel burn you name it. The display is clear, even in bright light, and the battery life is excellent. I also like that it's allowed on FAA knowledge tests, which made it a great study companion during my PPL prep. If you're serious about flying, skip the cheap calculators or phone apps this thing is rock solid and well worth the investment.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does anyone know how to do a ground speed problem when given tas and a wind setting?  i can't find any tutorials online.**
A: There was no manual with my CX-3  I found one on the internet but it did not help me much.  However, wind is given as true north so the first thing you need to do is change it to magnetic by subtracting the magnetic variation.  I gave up on the CX-3 and went back to my whiz wheel.

**Q: Can this asa cx-3 flight computer be used on the faa private pilot knowledge exam?**
A: Yes, you can use it on the knowledge exam.

**Q: I’m having a problem. Daytime mode looks a bit cloudy . Dark splotches and bright points . Is that normal ?**
A: Yes. But make sure you have done the software updates.

**Q: How do you clear the memory as needed for the FAA exams?**
A: It does not have a memory like a scientific calculator. There's nothing to clear.
