Seems like an awesome idea to me, I don't really like the band indicators looking like numbers but I really like the signal strength. Also the arrows are gone and you get little dashes representing the position
Opinions?

Yes. I don't like it
This was posted some time back... and if I remember correctly someone complained about (Your exact thoughts) those little dashes being either:
A) Disappearing at any whim of sunlight on them...
-AND/OR-
B) Being nearly impossible to tell at a quick-glance the threats location...
So I think the real-deal from VR is advised.
The all-red band LED indicators on the factory displays are bad enough for some people, this goes a further step back by turning the arrows into dashes. Seeing the signal strength meter "rev up" may encourage me to rev up the engine too
Yep not so good design there IMO
Looks like they took a display intended for some other purpose and repurposed it into a V1 remote display.
Looks like it has a 3-digit 7-segment display plus LEDs around the perimeter. They had to work with what they had to use it for the V1.
I suppose it's good for a stealth install in an RD-illegal location, but otherwise, I fail to see the point.

If speed kills, how come I'm still alive?

I think its a cool idea, it would just be a matter of getting used to the way it displays the info. If V1 made a CD in a gauge type form factor like this, I think they'd sell the crap out of them! It makes for a nice clean install in a gauge pod! I'd buy one in a heartbeat!
Nope,
Band indicators are even more cryptic, their version of arrows looks like a V1 visual laser warning, confusing. I think kpatz has a good scope on it.

A little better than the current V1 display, but not enough to warrant getting one.
