Overview
Upgrade Your Aspen Evolution Display System
Aspen Evolution displays are built on a modular, upgradeable platform, allowing pilots and aircraft owners to enhance capability over time instead of replacing an entire avionics system. Aspen upgrade options support everything from incremental performance improvements to full multi-display glass cockpit configurations.
MAX Display Upgrades
Aspen’s MAX upgrades bring next-generation performance to compatible Evolution displays. MAX upgrades offer enhanced processing power, improved display performance, and expanded feature capability—while maintaining compatibility with your existing Aspen installation.
MAX upgrades are available for eligible PFD and MFD configurations and can serve as the foundation for advanced systems such as dual-display or triple-display glass cockpits.
Software Feature Upgrades
In addition to hardware upgrades, Aspen offers a range of software-based upgrades that unlock new functionality without adding external hardware. These upgrades allow pilots to expand system capability, enhance safety, and tailor their displays to specific missions—often with minimal installation time.
Software upgrades are enabled and configured by an Aspen Authorized Dealer, who will verify compatibility and ensure proper activation.
Upgrade Compatibility & Requirements
Upgrade eligibility depends on your aircraft model, existing Aspen configuration, and installed equipment. Some upgrades may require specific hardware or software baselines. An Aspen Authorized Dealer can review your current system and recommend the best upgrade path for your aircraft.
