PhateX1337 Posted July 14, 2020 Report Posted July 14, 2020 As title says, looking to replace mine instead of paying for full Genesys overhaul, which is $$$$. My current one is PN 01192-6-1T and modified for use with King KCS55A Figured I'd check here in case any of you have one sitting around! Quote
David Lloyd Posted July 14, 2020 Report Posted July 14, 2020 Genesys told me a couple weeks back that to do the the control head for my 60-2 would be around $650 (forgot the exact number) You have a different experience? Quote
201Mooniac Posted July 14, 2020 Report Posted July 14, 2020 Not quite what you are looking for but I have a control head from a 55 (not x) in my hangar that I would let go cheap if you or someone else wants it. It worked fine before I removed it, it is setup for the KCS-55A. Quote

I’ve been told minimum of $1200 up to $2000 - figured I’d try a different head unit in mine first for less than that before going the route of sending back, if possible of course. 3 minutes ago, 201Mooniac said: Not quite what you are looking for but I have a control head from a 55 (not x) in my hangar that I would let go cheap if you or someone else wants it.

I think the newer 55Xs (mine included) have a different rack mount so might not fit. Quote
carusoam Posted July 14, 2020 Report Posted July 14, 2020 See if Alan has AP boxes. @Alan Fox(Stec 55X) Best regards, -a- Quote

More accurate numbers ... $1500 to $3000 depending on scope of repair. Quote

S-Tec can change the Cirrus 28V to a Mooney 14V, that was how I updated my 55 to a 55x years ago, it was about $1500 from S-Tec at the time, probably more now. Quote
Charliej Posted July 16, 2020 Report Posted July 16, 2020 I know we’ve got one in stock. PN is 01192-34-61T-30. I believe it’s one originally for an SR-22, but we pulled it out of a 421B if that helps at all. Looks like it even says 28V. Quote

Interesting - called on that and it's more expensive now than just sending it back for a minor. Appreciate the tip though! 1 hour ago, Charliej said: I know we’ve got one in stock.

This would be perfect, except that I need a 14v Appreciate the help though! Quote
M20F Posted July 18, 2020 Report Posted July 18, 2020 Ideal curiosity but why not just move to a GFC-500? Quote

So 20+AMU vs 1.5 to 3...bit of a different ballpark. Hoping to hold out for a full Dynon system but not pulling the trigger on that until they cert the AP. 1 Quote
