carusoam Posted June 26, 2018 Report Posted June 26, 2018 RMag, Great details and Pics and vid! Thanks for sharing! Best regards, -a- Quote
Bike_rider Posted June 26, 2018 Report Posted June 26, 2018 Wow! That is an amazing upgrade to a fantastic aircraft. I have been watching for a long time and am very lazy about keeping track of passwords and signing in but I had to break my silence and comment on your work of art. The paint, engine, interior and finally the avionics are all very "top notch" and well thought out. I love the technology and hope you get to enjoy it before moving on to another project. Thanks again for sharing your journey and hopefully this will get me off the sidelines and more involved. Have a great day! :) Quote

Holy cow it was a dream bird already. i think you work on this airplane more than you fly it. It already seemed like it had the latest and greatest avionics, can’t wait to see what you put in that tops that. The only thing left that was original was the autopilot. Quote

John Breda My ipad is always bluetooth connected to both my FS-510 and my GTX-345. In your case you would connect to only the GTX-345 and would have the AHRS as a backup to your iPad if your lost your G600 AHRS. You'd also get wx, traffix and position data from the GTX-345 that way on your iPad. Quote

ZuluZulu Posted January 6, 2021 Report Posted January 6, 2021 1 hour ago, Rmag said: Hmmm... Question for you. After seeing and liking your panel setup, I just went with the GNC 255A underneath my GTN 750. Would you do the same thing now, or would you have gone with the GTN 650, GNC 355, or something else as your #2 radio/navigator? Quote

Would you do the same thing now, or would you have gone with the GTN 650, GNC 355, or something else as your #2 radio/navigator? my thoughts... I went with the GNC 255A to provide minimum Garmin IFR backup at the lowest cost. If for some reason my GTN 750 went down during an IFR flight the GNC 255A gives you NAV for VOR/ILS and COMMs. When I did this, the The GNC 355 did not exist, and is an interesting thought at $2,300 MSRP above the GNC 255A gives you GPS/COMM instead of NAV/COMM in the same footprint. As N205J is flown predominantly VFR, I’d make the same choice, but might be swayed by the GNC 355 now. Since I already have the GNC 255 I am not looking to change For an aircraft that is going to predominantly be flown hard IFR it might warrant a strong look at the GTN 650 as the backup. 1 Quote

I have both an ipad mini-3 and an Ipad Pro 7. The Ipad pro has OS 14.1 and a faster processor. But it is much larger (which may be a downside). Should I be using the Ipad Pro because of more capability? John Breda Quote
