Bought a Garmin GTX 330ES for ads-b compliance in my Cessna 172D. So... does that get it? Or, is an encoder required? And if so, which one, or which spec is required? I've got one on a shelf that was in use with an Apollo S70 transponder. It's a 14VDC airplane, and trying to get it IFR...

thanks Dan

Really helpful. Bought an electronics international volt/ammeter for the airplane. Looks like I need one w an internal shunt and calibrated. THANK YOU for your help and input for this. Much appreciated. dan

working on a C-172D, 14VDC. Need to buy a "shunt" for the airplane - the connector block with a lead going to the ammeter... It seems we lost it. Think I need a 60 amp version, but a real spec or real part number would really be helpful. I know, it's a dum thing to lose it... thanks dan

man that's helpful. Thanks for the response. dan

Hi. Is the data card for the apollo GX60 approach gps/comm the same as the GX50 GPS (only... approach)? thanks dan

Anyone know if Jeppesen will still do this? I understand they'll update the base cards for Apollo GX50, 60, XX thanks dan

all good coaching. MUCH appreciated

thanks Dan. Will get a pair of A&P eyes on all those things. Appreciate the help. dan

I'm not describing the control column very well. It's the vertical bar, has a plastic cover on it, attached as a Tee to both pilot and copilot yokes. Has carpet around it, but a little less daylight would be helpful. thanks

Hello. Have a C-172D. Has the center control column, not the 172 with the big center fairing... The center control column has quite a bit of travel required, and the carpet isn't really keeping Mother Nature out (the cold wind gets in...). Is there somebody out there that makes a boot that can...

gotcha. It had some of that black, smooth stuff, about 3/4" thick, but really just loose in there, and I wanted to get it a little tighter - mostly to keep it a little more air tight ... I've pretty well given up the sound abatement except for installing new firewall sound proofing material. I...

any good "over the counter" insulation that can be used instead of the stuff from Spruce? Seems really expensive

I have the side panels and seats out of my C172. What kind of insulation can I put in behind the upholstered panels? Can you use any type of glue to hold in place? I know you can't risk corrosion from the glue or possible holding moisture... Anyone know a good material for this? Maybe that gives...

thanks for the intel. Yes, planning on the battery backup for the unit... how long do these last before they need to be changed? Not planning on getting totally away from the vacuum, just need to replace the AI and found some good looking Mid Con equipment, with battery, with a not-very-long...

Mornin' — making some panel changes and avionics upgrades to an older Cessna 172D. Want to put in an electric AI in this 14VDC airplane. So, do I need to find a 14V indicator? Or can a newer indicator from a 28VDC be configured to work? should I buy a new battery for the installation while the...

Thanks! I was told they stopped last year. I appreciate it.

Hello. Can these be upgraded with a current database? thanks dan

thanks. will talk w my installer guy - he's gotta sign off... I appreciate it. dan

Looks like a nice unit… but seems I need Loi annunciation. Thanks
