Comobowz Posted February 22, 2022 Report Posted February 22, 2022 Decided to go ahead and post the photos on the panel upgrade for my 98 Ovation, N2155K. We opted to go full Garmin stack. G500Txi + EIS GI275 GFC500 with YD option GTN 750xi GMA350c Audio Panel - I prefer a physical Audio Panel GNC 255a Nav/Com Guardian Avionics Aero 553 Multi-Function CO Monitor in panel FlightStream 510 I already had the GNX 375, so we kept that as the Transponder and GPS #2 We've got most of the squawks addressed, still a couple of minor items to clean up, but couldn't be happier with the new equipment. Such a big change! 6
IFLYIFR Posted February 22, 2022 Report Posted February 22, 2022 Which avionics shop did your upgrade? It’s beautiful and you got an extremely good price. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
donkaye, MCFI Posted February 22, 2022 Report Posted February 22, 2022 Nice panel. I'd check with your avionics shop to see if the transponder portion of the GNX 375 can be hooked into the GTN 750 for additional control of it, if that is something you would like. I certainly do with my GTX 335 interface to the GTN 750 Xi.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk sorry, just realized that my shortened tail number looks like the price I paid. Definitely NOT $55k. . Elite Avionics out of Cape Girardeau, MO (KCGI). They were amazing to work with and I'm really happy with the product and transparency throughout the process. 1

Ironically, thus far I don't mind it being on the GNX because it gives me a reason to actually use it! I'm still getting used to things for sure, but am finding that as a VFR only pilot (hopefully just until later this year), I've got a TON of screen real estate to leverage.
icurnmedic Posted February 24, 2022 Report Posted February 24, 2022 Still looks like a good price. I paid that and did not get the g500, but a G3x,so color me envious!
carusoam Posted February 24, 2022 Report Posted February 24, 2022 Great pics Comob! Instruments first, then rating next…. Good thinking! Best regards, -a-
