FlyWalt Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 Hi guys, Our family bird is at Avon Park for its annual shake down. I had reported to Phil that the factory original DG was going south quickly and he agreed with me. I wonder if anyone has a serviceable on your shelf that you would like to part with. i realize that everyone is going to tell me to install an Aspen. However, due other priorities for our cash this year I have decided to form the UCB Club :-)

FlyWalt Posted January 7, 2017 Author Report Posted January 7, 2017 Yes it needs to have a heading bug for the Century 4
Marauder Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 Yes it needs to have a heading bug for the Century 4 This is what I have:It is the same one listed on this site: http://www.sigmatek.com/pages/prod_description/PD_DG_autopilot.htmlAnd on this one: https://www.mcico.com/directional-gyros-4/1u262-003-14-1u262-003-14I used it with my STEC 60-2 AP. Working when I removed it to upgrade to an Aspen. Needed the Aspen because I had nothing to drive the GTN output. Not sure what the value is. I can check with Sanford and see what he would sell it for. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Marauder Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 Just last week I sold a core 52D54 (4000C series) on eBay for $220 shipped, so thereabouts is the starting point. I think they go for around $500 as used/serviceable. Jim - when said core, you mean non-functioning?Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
