  1. The CGR-30P Basic always includes RPM, EGT, CHT, fuel flow, OAT, volts and a few timers. As such, manifiold pressure would not be included. However, the UBG-16 can be traded in on a CGR-30P Premium at a discounted price of $2798.00. The Premium version always included RPM, EGT and CHT. At the time of order, up to five additional primary functions can be selected, as well as five non-primary functions. Primary functions are defined as those that are required by the manufacturer and include limits/redlines. A couple exceptions to this rule are a follow: 1. Manifold pressure is always primary on a naturally aspirated engine with a constant speed prop. 2. Each fuel tank occupies one primary screen location.
  2. No date yet as to when the offer will expire. If a replacement display solved the issue, that is fairly definitive proof that the issue is with the suspect display as there are no internal settings that would cause such behavior.
  3. What do the numbers at the bottom (EGT on the left, CHT on the right) of the display indicate when the bars are indicating erratically? It may be probe, connection or wiring related. If you can take a video of the display in flight and send it to me at support@iflyei.com, I will be happy to take a look at it an offer an opinion. Regarding an upgrade path, we are currently offering a $1500 trade-in rebate for those with UBG-16s currently, that wish to upgrade to our CGR-30P. For example, if one were to upgrade to our CGR-30P Basic, utilizing the currently installed EGT/CHT probes and cables, the all in cost for the upgrade would be $1998.00. Unfortunately, the UBG-16's plasma displays have become obsolete. As such, we are no longer able to manufacture new or support old units. Hence the reason for our current rebate offer.
  4. Easiest method to adjust the k-factor is as follows: 1. Fill the tanks. 2. Program the CGR-30P for full fuel. 3. Fly for an hour or two, leaned out in cruise. As fuel flow is not linear, it's not beneficial to go knock out a bunch of touch and goes for an hour in an effort to dial in the k-factor. You want to do so where the aircraft will be spending the majority of its time. 4. Upon landing, note the fuel the 30P calculated was used. 5. Refill the tanks. This is the actual amount used. 6. Using your existing k-factor, the formula below can be used to calculate a new k-factor to be entered manually. Calculated Used x Current K-Factor --------------------------------------- Actual Used After a few flights and adjustments, you should have it pretty well dialed in. Many owners are happy with the accuracy of the total fuel to .5 gallon, others have worked the process to .1 gallon. As always, if you have any follow up questions, feel free to message me. Dave
  5. It is for new and somewhat arrogant pilots, half way through their instrument training, flying through thick forest fire smoke, going to an Oregon Duck game, thinking they can pull it off. Ask me how I know...
  6. Hi Marc - We suggest our P-110-R EGT probes in turbocharged applications as the thicker probe (.187" diameter vs .125") typically results in a longer life span. If you would like to contact me directly at support@iflyei.com, I will generate a return authorization number for you to reference when shipping us your current EGT probes. We will be happy to exchange them for you at no charge. Worth noting, the holes in the exhaust may need to enlarged a bit for the new probes.
  7. This! It's like having two watches and never really knowing what time it really is.
  8. Worth noting, the GI275 requires the installer to build the harnesses and program the display, which adds numerous hours to the install cost.
  9. Read and VERY much appreciated!!
  10. Per our installation instructions. While the attachment specifies the FT-90 flow transducer, the sentence regarding fire sleeving applies to all our flow transducers. Worth noting, these instructions apply to installations with our instrumentation. If our flow transducers are to be interfaced with a third party instrument, our STC'd instructions do not apply as our flow transducers are not STC'd independently. Additionally, 90° fitting are not expressly prohibited, however, their use should not disrupt flow to the engine, but can disrupt the laminar flow of fuel to the transducer's impeller, resulting in erratic fuel flow indications. Whenever possible, 45° fittings would be preferred.
  11. There's a TON to see! Hopefully you've given yourself a few days at minimum. I'll see you at the booth!
  12. Assuming you are intending on attending the AirVenture show? If not, the rebate we are currently offering is the same as what we were offering to customers who could not attend the show. The "in person" rebate at Oshkosh is bit larger to incentivise potential customers to make their purchases at the event with our dealers as our dealers make substantial investments in time and money to staff and stock their booths.
  13. Current rebate, expires today (01/31/2023)! EI January rebate
