So after reading this entire thread…mine need, clean and lube, rebuild, or cam adjustment. I think clean and lube is a good start. Previous flight, SB worked perfectly. Day of issue I flew from KGPM (Grand Prairie, just south of DFW) to 99V (Crawford Airpark CO). Plane was at KGPM for 3 days. First night it rained cats and dogs and when I went to depart there was a layer of dirt on my plane. Started at 8k, +2 hours 10k, +3 12k, +3.5 16k for crossing the Rockies. While level at 16k +15min I look out to the right and see this. Right SB deployed about 1/4 inch. I attempted deploying SB, no joy on both. They did not work in the descent but then deployed after landing. The right would not stow completely but upon shutdown, stowed completely.

Who’s doing the overhaul?

I have GTX650XI with GFC500. After TO you have to activate or engage NAV mode. During pre-flight, make sure your GTN/Menu/OBS/GPS Not Nav 1 or LOC. Highly recommend Garmin GTN trainer for iPad.

My yoke mount broke yesterday. Looking for tried and true solutions. Can be yoke or other as long as it works in the Mooney cockpit. Mine is an Ovation. Tell me what is working for you.

Where did you land? Elevation? Temperature? Density Altitude?

So Good! KGXY-KPNS Greeley-Pensacola including a beach fly by. Probably added 20 minutes. 6 hours. I stayed at 11,000 the entire way.

Just did a full panel this year on my Mooneysaurus. Big smiles every time I fly. Here is the link.

I own a 1997 M20R with factory air. Just did the full panel with the GFC500. Works great! see the blog with pics and info.

Nope.

Sorry I have no idea. I paid AATG to do it all. I just picked the powder color.

So I waited to respond to this one till I dug deeper into the configuration setup and the manual. Yes it has the “Blue Range” that was on the original EGT. Because the G3X and Garmin EIS are certified and the original has the Blue, the Garmin has it also. Reference 2 pics. It shows on both expanded and compact modes. I tend not to use it and lean based on FF and CHT.

Are you asking software version on the G3X’s or GTN’s? What ever is the latest.

Goto love the new Tech. After getting squaks addressed in KFHB, flew back to KPNS. Weather tried to harass my route but the situational awareness of the new technology is priceless. Helpful vector combine with Nexrad and an occasional peak out the window makes a world of difference.

Yes, I can put the EIS on the MFD and remove it but I found when I flew it, its nice to have the EIS strip right there. For TO, I make the EIS big on the MFD and go full screen PFD on the pilots side.

Yes that's in the configuration settings.
