Just to further my believing G and the FAA are in bed with eachother.. (look at which big investment firms owns G, and trace that back) The A/P just got approved for the Beech T34 Mentor I maintain and fly for a friend ,126 total flying I believe (A,B,and C models combined). That project...

Venting.. Modern Autopilot are not that complicated, the experimental world has had garage builders successfully installing them from dynon and others with pretty good results, theres little to no statistics to warrant an autopilot are a hindernace to a safe flight. I cant help but wonder...

Waiting on the mooney cert also. I spoke to a DAR last year and he walked me through the FAA order to educate me on what the FAA has made off limits to anything outside of an STC. One company has 239 individual airframes approved and counting at a really good rate, something seems fishy to me...

After the swap, I'm curious of your side by side pirep (excluding autopilot) of the 2 systems. Its a shame they can't make better progress, gotta love our governemnt disfunction

Yes, normal. I was told you can slip a small oring over the shaft / below the knob and induce some friction. I just haven't tried it yet

Are you going ? lets meet up

Does it indeed only save data from one stall? I've calibrated mine a few times now with no changes.

OgieOglethorpe, I've been following it. Its ridiculous, and it just shows how broken the system is. After reading the article calling out the faa, I lost any hope of anything productive from the FAA. It's a good example of why years later, were still waiting, and only one company can somehow get...

Dynon, any progress on any of the projects?

I second this comment !;)

Exactly ! I just did this research last week, 5 different companies , 5 FSDO's, and one company hasn't missed a beat.:mad: My local Garmin guy told me a few days ago garmin is really frustrated with new approvals taking up to 3 months now, and he was serious. Our government is so broken.

That last statement !! 2, mainly one, but 2 companies seem to get things done, and 2 others just can't win. Meanwhile I've watched 6 (experimental) planes roll out of neighboring hangars, with autopilots installed from multiple companies, and work flawless. It's frustrating things have to be so...

I completely believe the FAA has become corrupt and only catering to one company. I’d hate to own or run a company that relied on the approval from our modern government. The rules and standards are not even across the board.

Woohoo ! HOPEFULLY, This is the beginning of progress towards realistic timeframes regarding the FAA.

The HDX is showing spikes up to 3500 rpm in flight after some 20 minutes or so. After flight I was going to turn off one of the rpm inputs in an effort to determine which side was causing the spiking, and that when i realized one mag is failing. Never had a mag check issue, but I never thought...

My Mooney just started doing this (rpm spiking occasionally) in the last 5 flights after 20 minutes or so. I started playing with setting the other evening after returning to determine which side could have been causing it, and found my engine almost dies on my right mag. I suspect this is...

I had to look, I didn't see any model Mooney on the AML for the 3100. I also do not believe HDX will output any attitude info.

..This is exactly my feelings. I am ready to invest into this if it something that can be done. I'm in for anything we can do as a type specific groups to go about this whole thing differently. I'm a nuts, bolts, and wires guy. I don't see what is so complicated about installing and proving...

And to add to the frustration of nearly impossible certifications these days.. I just read an article that the FAA sponsored an "inclusive language summit" last week regarding emasculating language in aviation. This is where the FAA priorities are right now, political correctness. Until we get...

Well said ! Its extremely frustrating that there's little anyone can do proactively that I can see.
