Hi Yariv, Thank you for your input. I called Garmin and I formatted FAT and it worked. I had to use a 2GB card (must be max 2GB they said) and it worked like a charm. I pulled CB for NAV2 and COM2 both. They whole update completed in less than 4 min. Hope you are well! Davide

Did you have to use a 2GB SD Card formatted FAT?

Hi Jeff, I have the exact same problem. Were you able to upgrade with the new files? It is crazy that Garmin doesn’t make this a bit easier!

Very cool. Would this Flightstream bluetooth interface work with FlyQ EFB or just Garmin Pilot and Foreflight?

I uploaded 50 flights and used Flysto.net to evaluate landing speed and glide slope angle and ground roll etc. primarily on a 5,000ft and 3,000ft runway. Best landing speed over threshold for my average WB configuration seems to be 73kts over the threshold. If ight and short runway below 70kts at the threshold. If light I managed to get a small bounce on the main even with speed of 69kts over the threshold... Check last image with yellow highlight. So frustrating! Regardless, Ovation consistently touches down at 60kts in landing configuration. If I have a steeper approach angle I have to pull back power a lot more aggressively. Love this website. I thought I would share. Still free for now. Love to hear your thoughts if you also use it and how.

Has anyone found a LED replacement for these? Mooney Ovation 3 M20R annunciator bulbs: AML Bulb 7327 | Aircraft Spruce

I was not planning to charge the battery this way but rather just update G1000 databases and learn buttonology without depleting batteries.

Thank you, Dave I will check, and report back.

Correction: The cigarette lighter sock has a label 14V 3 AMPS MAX 5 A Intermittent.

I connected the Battery Minder cigarette lighter adapter to the cigarette lighter plug in the cockpit and now the USB adapter (tried 3 different ones) is not working. Is there a circuit breaker that I don't see on the panel for this one?

Do you guys know what size camlocs are needed for M20R by any chance? Cowling and air inlet two different sizes.

Thanks this is how to do it properly with wiring: I was thinking something simple like this... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CMDH8CHY/ref=sw_img_1?smid=A1SASWNVUUP7GO&th=1

I thought so too. But I tried it and it worked once. I had to turn Master On to start the trickle charger then the Battery Minder continued to charge no problem for over an hour with Master Off. I guess the solenoid remained open? When I tried the same procedure the day after no joy.

Has anyone been able to use Battery Minder to trickle charge at least Battery 1 on M20R via cigarette lighter adapter?

Just a quick update. I sent in both alternator and voltage regulator for iran. The alternator needed overhauled. Voltage regulator was inspected and turned out to be fine. Reinstalled both of them. Tested on the ground and in the air. Problem gone issue seems to be solved. Six weeks turnaround time the only drawback but better safe than sorry.
