ACR Electronics Inc. has introduced the MicroFix, a one-button activated, emergency signaling device for aviators and outdoors enthusiasts available at EAA AirVenture. The FCC-approved MicroFix is 35 percent smaller and 25 percent lighter than its predecessor, the ACR AeroFix.

The suggested MSRP for the MicroFix is $750. The AeroFix 406 GPS I, which provides an interface cable connection capability to a GPS, and the AeroFix 406 GPS I/O, which provides both an interface cable connection to a GPS plus an internal GPS engine to acquire and transmit coordinates, are also available at AirVenture.

Weighing in at just 10 ounces (285 g), the MicroFix is easily carried in a pack or pocket and is small enough to be worn on a flight jacket or belt by aviators, the company says. A lanyard and clip provide functionality and allow for multiple mounting options.
