It is nice to have as it narrows the search area. When I fab a wire harness for an ELT that has GPS inputs available, I put a connector on the data...

Mmmmm. Venison. Web

Prop strike or other mechanical damage, I can understand. But the problems like in the XP-400 seems like weird voodoo stuff. Hope they share the...

So what was the fix for the 520? Metalurgy or mechanical? Web

Sigh . . . Nope. Not going to do it . . . Web

Holy crap, I think I pulled a muscle. Lol Web

Agree about the range of the motion sensor. But in my applications they work well. I'm wondering if a game camera wouldn't be a good choice for...

I've got the Blink system (finally, after being ripped off). Love the mic/audio and it tells me if it loses connection to internet for any reason....

The mechanic's job is maintenance. He'll have more insight into these issues as a technician than you'll have as an operator. Get him involved now. ...

My view is that the biggest problem with the ADS-B regs is the requirement that it be operational even in airspace where the regs do not require it....

Same reg that says if installed it must be operational. Pull the tray out and you might get away with it. This is different than pulling a uAvionics...

You might as well just switch it off. If anyone has a reason to look inside the cockpit, the tray will prove that the system has been installed....

As a general rule, E.I. gauges (except for the bar graph monitors) are certified for primary use. Web

I've talked to the factory (Artex) a few times and always had good experiences. Wished they had treated you better as I think they make a good...

I've had very few problems with their ELTs. If you open up different models and compare, the boards are assembled and sealed better than others (my...

Anything Artex. Right now, I'm a big fan of their ELT 345. Roughly $700 locally and has inputs for GPS location data. Also has a fairly simple wire...

LOL! Two thumbs up! Web

Copenhagen? Web

Not buying it. It's an obvious end around for 'required airspace'. I think it's a winnable argument but as it's against the faa, it's a bit like...

Correct. An encoder is required, whether stand alone or built in. The WAAS enabled GPS provides a precision location signal. Web

Not sure if pics will help much. It's just a couple of hoses connected to a block of aluminum. Use 'Mounting procedure 700923' in the install...
