I just tried a cardboard cutout of the Guardian iPad mini dock on my current panel and it will not fit. The back side mount structure would hit my engine gauges in either the horizontal or vertical orientation. It might fit if I replaced all my primary gauges with a fancy engine monitor but then...

My old Westach 6 position EGT and CHT gauges and probes were installed years ago in my Navion under a TSO. Several probes have failed or no longer give a reading. I must have at least 1 CHT for my engine per the TCS. Westach no longer makes TSO gauges or probes. Can I legally use the Westach...

Has anyone installed a Guradian iPad dock in their panel. I have started considering one of those to mount my iPad Mini 5 in my Navion's panel. Please post any comments on the good or bad points of this dock. Are they easy to install, Do they work well and hold the iPad securely? Is anyone...

So if I plan to use an Avidyne GPS navigator 440 or 540 down the road what will provide them ADS-B data if anything or is this a go Garmin or nothing decision.

So why did they toss out the Stratus for Garmin?

Yes it’s too bad that the Stratus doesn’t provide the gps location on a serial out port that could be used by other boxes or not. They missed a good opportunity.The new Garmin boxes might work but Garmin does not seem to work with the Dynon panel.

So the Stratus is a dead end solution but a cheaper one. I was OK with that and using it to drive my iPad mini until the Skyview HDX system was announced. That tossed the wrench into decision process.

I believe you are correct. I only asked since I have a Stratus ready to install. But then the Dynon HDX system came available but it needs a WAAS source as well and I did not want to do the stratus if I would have to do the Dynon GPS as well. That seems like wasted money. Just trying to decide...

So do any of the new ADS-B transponders provide their GPS signal to an external box. Stratus does not, does the lynx 9000 or any others?

Thx. I am considering the HDX for my Navion that has no GPS now. I have a Stratus ESG at my local avionics shop ready for installation but wondering if I should cancel that for now. I don’t want to waste money or close out possible upgrade options.

Does the new HDX certified system require a WAAS gps source to function for a VFR panel? Must that signal come from a GPS navigator or can it be from a ABS-B out GPS source like a Stratus ESG?

So how did you take The assembly apart to clean it. Is it obvious how to take it apart to get to the gears.

Ilome the plasti dip idea. Might be worth a try and if I screw it up then try a replacement cord. I dont want to spend any more $$ before I know that I can pass the new medical process.

Thx I will look at these and maybe get in touch with ASA as well.

I will probably do that. I am just getting back into flying assuming the BasicMed process works and will need a cheap HS to start out with. Afterwards I can get something a little better

So where would I find a new cord?

I believe it is an ASA Air classics HS.

Yea right! This headset is probably vintage 2003 soncenit was my son's first headset when he started flying. Some sort of inexpensive generic black David Clake clone.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to repair or replace the black rubber insulation along a head set cord? Somehow the insulation has just cracked and pealed off the entire length of the cord. The metal shielding wrap is still in place, just little to no insulation. I can't use shrink wrap...

So exactly when should we start this Basic Med process? After May 1st or now. Assuming I get through the Basic Med process I need to get a new flight review and wonder if I should just wait till May or try to get that done now. I don't need a medical to do the flight review, just can't act as...
