cliffy Posted July 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Thinking outside the box, what about the antenna? Where would it go AND there are two units , one each side. One for OUT and one for IN. True enough on the strobes for now but in fact the high discharge EMF from the strobe tube might be a problem for the micro electronics in the ADSB unit.being that close to it.

jetdriven Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 It's a great idea for a 172 but in don't see it for a mooney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest paulie Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I bought one for my RV, can't use it in anything but LSA and experimental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest paulie Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Not putting mine in the wingtip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takair Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I like the idea, but I'm wondering if they will be able to certify with the wingtip position. I would think they will have great coverage on one side and not so good on the other. Also, the WAAS is supposed to have full view of the sky, seems they would have the same problem. They seem like pretty smart guys, so I wouldn't be surprised if they have it worked out. Will keep an eye out on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneymite Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 This seems very similar to the Levil Beacon. http://aviation.levil.com/beacon-978.html Again, ready for the experimental market, but promises for the certified version. I am definitely interested in one of these ADS-B solutions for my experimental...depending on how that goes, I may consider either for my Mooney. Thw only thing worse than a mandatory ADS-B installation is two mandatory instalations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerry Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Maybe they should market it as a STOL kit. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
