The gFlight is comprised of two components

The component on the left of two shown in 
the picture is the display component. This 
component has an “on/off switch”, the display 
screen for jump metrics and a sensor.

The component on the right of the two shown 
in the picture simply acts as a sensor. As you 
will see in the upcoming pages, the sensors 
are quite small and proper alignment is key 
for best use.
