Rebecca, one question, is it a software limitation?, meaning that the NAV option is "locked-out" or is the MFT "brain" physically different with and without NAV?
In my mind, all the hardware is there, just the "NAV" option is lock-ed out in the software since we did not agree to pay $700.00 for that option
Maybe non-NAV MFT is missing actual hardware, like a GPS antenna?
Just curious, I'm not trying to get something for nothing...
Yes, it's a software configuration issue, not hardware. Due to the programming/coding that is required, it doesn't have "off-the-shelf" functionality. One limitation is that the module has some licensing that has to be activated at the time of build.
If we do decide to offer it as an add-on in the future, we will make our customers aware
Here are a few things, some of them are just basic structural stuff.
Thanks for listening and trying to improve these things
I submitted your ideas
