    Avionics Master Switch Question

    I was recently asked this question and am stuck on what the correct procedure would be. The question is "External power is turned on. The pilot turns on the avionics master switch and nothing happens. You cycle the switch and still nothing. Using the diagram below you have to figure out what is...

    Avionics database/interface info

    Hello nice people. Is there any database where to browse most common avionics and their installation manuals as well of any interface equipment that will allow different sensors to work with avionics? Thank you

    What avionics does my 182Q need to have for me to take a IFR check ride?

    Hello, I'm wanting to start my IFR training but need to do some upgrades to make my 182Q IFR check ride ready. Was hoping I could just pop a Garmin GPS 175 for now but I think I might have to do some other stuff to make it IFR Check ride ready? It is ADS-B out already and it was IFR certified...

    Kit storage time

    Hi folks. I want to build a plane someday (not decided on the brand yet) but was wondering for how long can the crates be stored?. Since kit prices are always coming up, I'm considering to order now and store it for a 3-5 year period. Is that too much? What could be the risk of storing for that...

    Panel upgrade - getting modern gps

    Throughout IFR training it's become clear that I really need to get an IFR GPS to expand my capabilities. Assuming this is your starting point, how would you customize it to get the most functionality bang-for-the-buck? Right now the center stack is a KLN89 GPS (VFR-only), 2 KX-155 TSO...

    G3x vs GTN750 'Recent Frequencies'

    Minor frustration with Garmin here. When looking at 'Recent Frequencies' on the G3x, it will show the designation of the frequency. (Tower, Approach, AWOS, etc.). The GTN, however, just shows the frequency. Not sure if there is a fix or I missed a configuration somewhere. Just annoying.

    Hi There! I have an RV6A that I'm doing an avionics upgrade on. I have on the aircraft Dynon EFIS D10A, EMS D10, 2 axis Dynon autopilot. I'm trying to add Aspen PFD 1000 and IFD 440. is it possible to have the aspen EFIS talk to the Dynon EFIS so I could use the autopilot with the aspen and IFD 440?

    Tip-toeing into the 21st century

    Maybe I'm just giddy because I have a new toy - but just got the plane back today with a new G5 AI installed and it's making me wish I did it 2 years ago! That thing packs a lot of functionality into a tiny package. Super cool. And I'm fairly confident it's the first piece of avionics in my...

    Unusual and Rare Avionics

    I just bought a very nice R182 and it has a few open spots for instruments where there used to be a stormscope and probably an ADF. The stormscope antenna is still on the plane and I'm considering putting in an ADF because I actually quite like using them during approaches, but I am also very...

    Avionics log-files analysis / fdm

    Hi all, those of you with avionics/engine monitors that record log-files (eg Garmin G5/275/3X/1000/3000 …, Avidyne …, Dynon etc..) might be interested in looking at the data. This is a software prototype I’m affiliated with. We have a number of initial users now who are very happy with it...

    Attitude indicator drifts off, and my new one is doing the same

    I recently bought a new attitude indicator since I was having trouble with my previous one "drifting off". Now this new indicator is doing the same after only about 25 hours. What happens: - In both cases the issue first arose on a long flight, just doing straight and level. When I do frequent...

    Let's build a panel

    I'm bored guys. Let's build a panel together. I was thinking either a PA-28 or a C-172 but open to suggestions. I will add the suggested instruments to the template. I prefer steam gauges, but we can add glass if you want. I was also thinking "Light" IFR but maybe we can do a VFR and an IFR...
