  1. My E is the same way thinking about asking my ia/ap to come up with something to close the gap
  2. jose 1800 or mr patron gold for me
  3. mine was a hole in the servo, i'd check there first. btw, electrical tape is your friend
  4. no, but they will give you the name of a shop which does the overhaul. you may be able to find the name with a search here on mooneyspace.
  5. It can be overhauled, call brittain.
  6. OMG LOVE this Autopilot, with a bit of electrical tape, it now tracks like it's on rails https://flightaware.com/live/flight/N7106V
  7. honestly don't remember, once he said sometime around May, i gave up. Darn ADSB
  8. verbal estimate from a reputable avionics shop was approx 1600$ to install a gi-275 adi.
  9. hehe no, thank goodness it was replaced with all new tan/beige fabric and leather.
  10. da hell
  11. http://static.garmin.com/pumac/190-02207-a2_02.pdf
  12. Garmin pilot on : samsung s10+, stays in my pocket. Samsung s6 on yoke : plates, nav, etc.. IPad Mini 5 attached to glareshield : traffic, weather
  13. I run gp on both the IPad mini 5 and a samsung s6, to be honest except for the new visual arrival and departures, I think the android version is better. to me it just feels the control and screen layout is better. shrug...
  14. Received the mail notice thursday completed registration via web thursday night Received renewed registration yesterday, Tuesday. Like 3 business days
  15. I know, not a Mooney but hey I'm current till September 8). was actually quite fun, I was surprised how hard it is to hold GS in one of these things. Also Garmin PIlot updated to version 10, adding graphical Arrival/Departures. Today's been a good day.
  16. hey anyone have a quote for the GI275 install cost and time, can't get a straight answer from anyone. Can't imagine it taking more than a couple of days. Baker? Jesse?
  17. I have a few also
  18. No, along with the wing leveler, birdy has a brittain Accu???? autopilot.
  19. Just wondering, lets say trutrak and the gfc500 never materialize for my "E", what is the best way to get altitude hold? after adding a bit of electrical tape, the thing is tracking like it's on rails but not having an altitude hold is tiring. so what are my options ? also, hasn't adsb day passed, when are the damn avionics shops going to open up?
  20. there is absolutely no reason you need to run them at 100% power. actually 100% power doesn't make sense even for airplane engines, an io360 can spin faster than 2700 rpm and make MORE power while doing it. might not last as long but hey whatever 100% is just a rating. rate the auto engine 100% @ 3000rpm or 3500rpm whatever
  21. Or wait for it, Add forced induction. that same ls3/lt4/v6 can be made to do the same or better numbers at those lower rpms with a turbo. probably while running 89 octane, ethanol gas
  22. I'm really thinking of installing 1 or 2 of the 275's. adi and hsi, they just seem to make sense. now for the adi, i can't see a reason why i would ever remove my pitot/static instruments anyway. just doesn't make sense. synvis is a huge help in the planes i've flown, not because i used it to evade terrain but really just because of the extra cues while ifr. just seems more "comfortable?" than the standard blue/brown look. If i'm not mistaken, the gi-275 may have more screen area then a g5, they aren't overly large.
  23. I want an optima yellow top as a second battery, think i can get a 337 for that ?
  24. love the 747, my dream job would be as a 747 UPS/Fedex Pilot.
