    KAP 150 autopilot plane swap

    Would a KAP 150 removed from a Mooney work on my Cessna 206 for spare parts?. Gotta troubleshoot mine and this seems cost-effective, unless they're somewhat different systems.

    Dashcams

    Have heard those cheap plugs make radio interference. Would be nice if usb outputs were not that expensive. Anyway I'm planning to mount it somehow on the ceiling so I can register instruments, gauges and actions as well. Maybe I'll attach a powerbank nearby.

    Dashcams

    Personally I'm looking after flight registration rather than video making. I mean, dashcams became popular as all that happened in the road became registered. Looking for my own "black box". GoPro will be mounted outside.

    Dashcams

    Where do you install them and how do you operate them?. Would be valuable to install it aft of the pilot so it captures the panel and procedures, but there is seldom a power outlet in that position. Thinking about attaching a power bank with velcro or something like that nearby.

    New features - Aspen E5

    As I see it, the Aspen loses against dual G5s (for the same price) regarding redundancy. Are we cleared to remove the vacuum system and retain IFR compliance with an Aspen even with a single screen? I'm a bit lost on details on these matters. I'm thinking about putting 3k more and going single...

    G5 ILS & LPV approach display choice

    The amount of pitch or roll required in dual cue depends on how much deviated the bar goes. As soon as you start complying it shall begin to center if the action required was small. Full deflection will center again as you comply (30 deg bank angle for instance) and remain centered as long as...

    G5 ILS & LPV approach display choice

    Dual Cue is what is used on Boeing and Airbuses. I'd go for that as it is very precise. Nice to have the choice though.

    Tach Time v. Foreflight Logbook Time

    What a fuss this makes. Block Time: Start Moving-Stop Moving (aka Chocks out-in). Loggeable, includes flight time. Flight Time: Take-Off to Landing. Airborne. Garmin Pilot is very precise and useful in this, at work the Fmgs will record these times for me. Tachometer will cut you time off...

    Functional EGT required for annual?

    Thank you very much

    Functional EGT required for annual?

    Is it required to have an original/old Egt indicator installed in a TU206G? I'm installing a Jpi830 and dumping the classic Alcor.

    Advise on Shadin Digiflo

    Afaik the 830 is only advisory so I'm keeping the analog and shadin fuel flow. Will let you know how this goes, thanks for your help.

    Advise on Shadin Digiflo

    If it was only regarding fuel flow indication I'd be clear. Thing is, it is already wired to my working dependable gps. It gives nm/gal, gal to destination, gal reserve and endurance. Not sure if the 830 will give me that info, of fast/clearly enough, hence my doubt in keeping redundancy...

    Advise on Shadin Digiflo

    I have a Trimble 2000 gps installed wired to a Shadin Digiflo, both working properly. I am adding a Jpi Edm830 now, and was assuming that I can let go the Digiflo then. Would you recommend keeping it anyway? Is there something that the 830 won't do? I have no problem with panel space but some...

    Quote check

    That's an astounding panel for sure!. I'd like to install a "vintage" G500 but they seldom pop-up on the used market. I'm also about to install a Jpi830. It's all about quotes, which vary a lot it seems.

    Bendixking AeroFlight (KI 300) and AeroCruze (KFC 230)

    Thanks Steve. I'm curious about the Kap/Kfc thing; isn't it the only difference between them Kap150 and Kfc150 the flight director? I mean, a different computer and indicator, but same servos. What limited the inclusion of the Kap150 in the 230 upgrade Stc then? If that does not get to happen...

    Bendixking AeroFlight (KI 300) and AeroCruze (KFC 230)

    It would shure be nice to retain my actual autopilot capability with the 230 upgrade, if not I’d be forced to go with another brand. By commonality I mean installation costs, to say the least, having a Bendix autopilot currently installed. Brackets, hardware, you name it.

    Garmin Pilot Question

    Hi Stewart, I noticed something similar but just downloaded the outdated data.

    Bendixking AeroFlight (KI 300) and AeroCruze (KFC 230)

    Nice to read you back here Steven. I am seriously evaluating the 310 in order to keep my Kap150 alive (but that's another story). Can you please tell us more about reduction in installation costs as being a "slide-in replacement" for our current Ki256/Kg258's?. There's quite a breach to cover...

    Have you got installation quotes already? That's where the advantage is, at least as advertised.
