Answer: Maps can be oriented both North-Up and Track-Up (as of latest software update). I'm needing to replace my old Lawrance 500 as the data base is 5+ years old and can't be updated. This unit looks GREAT but don't know if I have room to install it around my panel. In looking at the KR this morning my plan might be to move my Lawrance to the compass location on top of the instrument panel and set it on the "compass rose" screen and use it to replace my compass, move my radio from the bottom of my panel to the upper left where the Lawrance is currently mounted, and put the IFly700 between my legs below the panel. Question for those using one, will the screen rotate 90 degrees?
