What are the differences among the three Argus moving map displays?
The Argus 5000 and Argus 3000 both fit in the standard 3-inch square instrument cutout as do other common flight instruments such as RMIs and HSIs. Each Argus requires 11 inches behind the panel and weighs about four pounds when installed. The Argus 7000 is nearly identical in weight and length to the 3000 and 5000, but has a much larger screen area even though it requires only an additional 1 3/4″ higher panel cutout.

The Argus 5000 and Argus 7000 can interface to an HSI or remote DG for a heading- oriented screen display. They can also connect to an ADF for display of ADF bearing on the Argus screen. If panel space is a problem, the Argus can actually take the place of the ADF indicator. (More on that later.
