Marc - will the G3X supply a glideslope for the vertical navigation? Or do you have to fly step-down altitudes?

You can load the charts from a USB to display on the HDX, with your aircraft geo-referenced over the top of the chart and "fly" the airplane along the charted path by using the autopilot and TRK function, but there is not a way to automatically load the waypoints of an approach into the HDX and...

I did, it was well out of warranty period.

I had one die from water ingress, but no other problems.

I'm wondering if there is a way in the DFG file to note the value of the second fuel sender to negative? So when it subtracts it from the first value you end up summing them?

Marc is right. Given the data you have supplied, the sensors will work just fine. Whether you choose to accept that or not is up to you. There may be other circumstances that may make those sensors unacceptable for one reason or another, but you are clearly unwilling to share that information...

Temporarily backed away? Or permanent? Reference?

Sorry, missed that part. Sitting down and shutting up now.

Whose clutch and servo? Not Dynon's....

Sorry, no. The clutch is magnetic and requires no voltage to operate. The trim amp, on the other hand, very well may - which would lead to an electrical installation problem.

Since Dynon is not the manufacturer of the Ray Allen display, they may not have any details to share. You might want to contact Ray Allen directly. http://www.rayallencompany.com/products/servos.html

From the FM, (Users guide, revision K, bottom of page 8-1) :p "The autopilot’s Level Mode (or Straight and Level Mode) will immediately attempt to reach zero vertical speed and a roll angle of zero. It will not attempt to fly the aircraft to any previous altitude or track and it will not...

Depends on where you are. In the US, if the certificated aircraft did not originally come with it, then you'll need an STC (or field approval) to install it, along with an A&P to do the actual work.

The straight/level button may also be useful for this, it doesn't care about the actual altitude value, just levels out.

There have been a few folks talking about building there own some years back, that's well above my level of electronics so I can't tell you more about than that I heard it was happening. I don't believe there is an "off-the-shelf" alternative.

I think somebody did, but we don't really pay much attention to that guy. :cool:

Wait, didn't NASA blow up a whole lot of rockets though? Should we really be listening to them? :p:p

Solar flares.

In my 9A, I'm running the same type of redundancy but I still have a G5 for backup. My logic was that both screens are still made by the same manufacturer, running the same software, and while it might be farfetched it's not impossible for a single software problem to take them both out. The G5...

Because you're not fully stalled in the flare, at least not normally.
