DAVIDWH Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Anyone scheduled an install ? Almost the same size as the G1000 and the price point seems very favorable for a glass panel upgrade. My local avionics shop said about 10 days and is still working up a quote. The experimental pilots have been enjoying it for some time, finally FAA approved for certified aircraft.

kris_adams Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Good question. I should be seeing my avionics guy this week. I'll ask and see what he says for an install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kris_adams Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 That's a great thread that most of us have been following. I suspect there will be lots of threads on the G3X. If someone wants to ask a question outside of the "master" thread I'm happy to try to help instead of just pointing then to a thread that 1) they probably are already reading and 2) is so long that it's hard to find information in it.

M20kflyer99 Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 I’ve gotten a quote. $14,500 single 10”G3X, not sure if included AP box. $3,200 G5 backup $1,500 New pilot panel cut. Quote did not include hourly breakdown I already have a 750,345 and 255a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIm20c Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 I think the first question to ask is what AP you want to use? If keeping the BK do you currently have altitude preselect on your AP? Along with a good waas gps/nav/com the only thing that really matters to me is a really nice AP. The rest IMO is just eye candy. I currently have a stec 50 in my C. It works well but I would much rather have an upgrade to that vs other avionics/paint/interior/etc. expenditures. So in your position I’d make sure you had a good alt preselect setup and line up the 256/130/ASI along the bottom of the g3x or plan on installing a gfc500 at the same time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
