The pitot tube is out in front of the wing. You can see it if you soon in on the pilot side wing about half way. I would assume the wing wash wouldn't be an issue. The plane doesnt have a static port on the out side. It just reads from inside the cabin. I don't notice it in any other flap...

It was actually an SLSA but when the company went under it got changed to an ELSA. I am assuming a lot of other manufacturers have the same issues. does anyone recall any of the solutions that the other manufacturers came up with?

Hi all, Been doing a lot of short takeoff and landing a lately and have a started some off airport landings in farmers fields that I know. When I do stall practice, my speed goes down to 38 knots pretty accurately. Below that is falls pretty dramatically until I stall. I'm assuming the aoa...

Hi all, I bought an eagle ea-100 (same as ibis magic 700) a few months back and need a pic of how the oil cooler was originally mounted. The last rotax mechanic mounted it on the firewall to keep it warm in winter, but it's too hot in summer. I want to put it back to the original design. If...

Thx Ryan appreciate all the help!

Thanks Ryan! Would installing those wires help me out at all being vfr? Ah, u noticed the guage... I noticed that the oil pressure was falling into the yellow 2 out of 3 takeoffs. I hooked the mechanical oil pressure guage in line with the electronic guage to see if it was a pump issue or an...

Thx Ryan, Maybe a dumb question, but what's the backshell? Good info about the minimum requirements. Was going to get the wires installed, but if it needs cdi also, probably will just live with the message because I have no room to add it. Will call Garmin to double check though. Thx again!

Depending on how the lawsuit with Garmin goes, I wast thinking the sky beacon from uavionics for adsb. Why are those wires needed? I'm assuming that those wires are needed for ifr approaches? If so, I think I will call Garmin and see if there is a way to stop the message from coming up. Thx

Thx Floyd, Found it...the static tube made it easy to find. I did not see any wires going from the transponder to the 420. I did set the input 1 on the 420 to what u said and I received an error. I have the card out right now to get it updated. Thx for the offer and I'm in pa. Thx for all...

Not sure where the encoder is...so I took a video. https://photos.app.goo.gl/Cgp3QRzCk4yq1sNp8

Thx Floyd, No nav. No other way to get that message to go away then to add those wires?

Thx Ryan, GOT and 429 EFIS? No clue, sorry. This is the first time I'm trying to figure out an issue with any avionics. I will get pics of the 327 and try to take pics of the main plug into the 420. Thx again!

Thx Floyd, I didn't see any 337 paperwork, but I will double check. The owner was a cfi and did plan on training in it before he started a pilot job and was to busy to teach. It's an experimental LSA. It does have the standard six pack vacuum gauges and all the lights for night flying. I will...

Thx Ryan, I believe I got what u were asking for

Thx Floyd, I don't remember it doing it when I went out to test fly it, but it could have been. It has been doing it for sure since ferry pilot dropped it off and signed me off. This will be the first time I am touching avionics so please forgive any stupid questions. (I used to build computers...

It feels like the msg flashes every 10 minutes.

Hi all, My ,new to me, plane keeps giving me... "no altitude input is being received". Has anyone had this or can some of the experts give me something to check? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks Aaron

Hi all, Have a couple of smaller air leaks. The inspection panel at wing roots that cover the leading edge (the skin isnt perfectly sealed, it is a tiny bit wavey in between the screws. Im only worried about this if I left it out over night in the rain), a 1/4 inch by 5 inch right at the 90...

I checked Garmin, under software it states no updates available or something like that. I will check jeppessen.

I just want to update the cards to show thw right frequencies and terrain. Sorry, I wasn't clear. Thx
