Description

TQ KRT2 Bluetooth adapter for SkyDemon, Sky-Map and other navigation apps — SD-KRT2-E.

The SD-KRT2-E is simply inserted between the TQ KRT2 transceiver and the existing Sub-D connector—no additional wiring, soldering, or mechanical modifications required. Standby and active frequencies can be transferred directly to the transceiver from SkyDemon or Sky-Map; the station's name is also automatically displayed on the KRT2's screen.

You are already using an EFIS (e.g., Garmin G3X, Dynon, Nesis)? Then we recommend the dual-source version. SD-KRT2-DS — for the simultaneous use of EFIS and SkyDemon without rewiring.

  1. Heiner Schütz

    I installed the KRT2 adapter today. The adapter is very small, the housing seems very sturdy, and the mounting clips on the connector hold well. The entire installation only takes a few minutes and it works flawlessly. In SkyDemon, all you have to do is select the radio under "Third-Party Devices," save it, and you're ready to use the function.

    Installed in 2 minutes… and 90 seconds of that was trying to plug it in blind by feel!

    I tested the device, and......it is perfect! This is great, no more nervously changing frequencies all the time. Thanks!

    I installed the KRT2 adapter. The adapter fits perfectly into our c42, the mounting clamps hold well, but I secured them with cable ties. The connection to SkyDemon and Sky-Map works flawlessly.

    After a bit of initial confusion, I got it working – and it works brilliantly! Although the manual doesn't mention it, SkyDemon correctly recognized the KRT2 radio. The key was selecting the KRT2 protocol manually in a second dropdown panel, which wasn't immediately visible and was still set to another radio type.
    I had assumed the protocol would switch automatically, but if I had taken the time to check the whole page, I would've spotted it sooner. Once set correctly, the adapter performs flawlessly. Highly recommended!

    During a turbulent flight, I accidentally switched off the radio while trying to change frequency at the point of a clearance delivery. With SD-Link, frequency changes can be sent directly from the navigation app to the radio, which makes cockpit handling much easier and helps avoid this kind of mistake. A very useful little device.
