I have dual G5s, GTN650/430w, GDL88, GTX327 right now. It's the way I bought the plane and seems like a good set up so far. I'm using a GDL50 for my iPad and foreflight. Which would be more efficient to use and why a Flightstream 210 or 510 with the current panel?

FS510 gives you the ability to update the databases wirelessly.

I download the database updates on my iPad, and then in the airplane, shoot them into my 650Xi.   No taking cards in/out, taking them home, etc/

Since you do a physical install of the FS210 you get a stable AHRS with it.  The FS 510 doesn't have an AHRS.  OTOH the 510 doesn't have any installation costs, while the 210 does.  The the 510 can do database concierge.  The 210 can't.   I got the 210 when it came out and followed it with the 510 when it came out.
