For those of us with older cherokees, and possibly others, the airspeed indicator is mph on the outside of the ring, kts on the inner ring, and a knob to adjust the mph for temperature.
The G5 can be set to use either mph or kts. I've set it for mph and loaded all the V speeds for mph and it works fine. If I then set for kts, will the gadget automatically convert the V speeds into kts or do I need to reset everything by hand? There's nothing in the Pilot's Guide. I can't find anything in the Install manual (v 18) about it, either.
Will head out to the hangar later today and see what happens. Fortunately, I have all the V speeds in both mph and kts on a 3x5 card I keep in the airplane so resetting everything by hand won't be a big deal. But I dither over mph or kts on the unit.
