Welcome!

Welcome to Flytec Balloon. We started out in Switzerland, where we built the very first electronic variometer for free-flying pilots, over 35 years ago. In 1992, we were the first to build a variometer for ballooning with wireless envelope temperature transmission. Since then, we have equipped thousands of balloons with our temperature sensors, our balloon varios are flying all over the world, and at least one of them flew once around the globe in a single flight. Pilots at all levels, from recreational balloonists to commercial operations, all the way to world champions both in hot air and gas ballooning, rely on Flytec Balloon varios. Today, our varios are engineered in Switzerland, and built in Portugal by one of the leading paragliding vario manufacturers.

Balloon varios

We offer several varios that we designed specifically for hot air balloon pilots.

Support

We are here to assist you and help you make the most out of your Flytec Balloon vario.

Repairs

Varios have a tough life, and sometimes they need some tender loving care to make up for it. We repair Flytec (both Balloon and paragliding/hang-gliding), Volirium, Bräuniger and Naviter varios.
