New ADAHRS now up & working, thanks to a download doing its electronic compatibility magic 😈

Did you have to pay for the refurbished module?

Without any warning, my ADAHRS -200 failed, after just 132 hrs in service. Local Dynon agent unable to fix. Supplied loan module, which worked perfectly. "Old" unit sent to USA for assessment / repair. No explanation on old module failure. New (not rebuild) replacement (charged full price, as...

Bit technical for me - If you purchase an item/part from an aircraft supplier, comes with documentation and a massive price tag - its aircarft grade 😈

SV Classic - I have become a Grumpy Old Man - I no longer have any tolerance for ignorant behaviour, especially when it comes from a position of arrogance. Be kind. Be humble. Admit your failings/errors and I won't bite - simple! 😈

You weren't the target of my comment - If I may be so bold - so far, you represent the reasonable, considered fraction of this Forum 😈

Naturally, I don't agree. This is a genuine philosophical & practical area of debate. The aviation industry has built up, since its departure from bicycle engineering, an elitist overly conservative position - only aviation derived products/techniques can be allowed. To some extent this is...

Very good advice. I do feel that your "Bundle some PVC together in the engine compartment and you compound the problem. " is a tad hysterical. Tefzel, will not help you if you practise bad wiring/installation. I have often found that the options available from the automotive world are far...

In my very short time on this Forum, I have found, with only one or two exceptions, the respondents to be, in general, curt. Unfortunatly you are not one of the exceptions. You may benefit from jumping of your high horse, standing back and & have a think about your demeanor.

So Rhino - it seems, from your reference, we are still using the Bouden tubes or similar - no solid state load cells as yet (assuming your reference is up to date). Is there some good reason you could not have told Akash408 that there has been little progress, in aircraft pressure sensors, in...

Ha Ha! I do so appreciate a debate with a self confessed expert in the field. No intention to "malign" just using my observation & experince of interacting with many "died in the wool" aviation (& other) experts over a reasonably long life. So often the expert has become so...

"Plans built?" Yes, plans built. Some component were "off the shelf" - Sonex supplied the engine frame & bed, glass wing/tail tips, main wing spar. I would like to claim "all my own work', the truth is I purchased the aircraft in an advanced stage of completion, from the astonishing person...

I just love it when aviation buffs (no offence intended) make unsubstantiated negative comments (however diplomatically put) about alternative materials & parts. The reality is, much in the automotive world, in particular but also elsewhere, is perfectly suited to home built small aircraft ...

"Caveat Emptor" - shades of the radical right - nasty! 😈

Cant compare with the ramp appeal of the Pitts above however, you asked; Sonex, Legacy, Rotax 912ULS, Airmaster CS, plans built & personalised - EconoCruise 75% power (5000 engine rpm) delivers 130 knots @ 3500ft for 15L/hr ULP consumed. Fitted with Dynon Skyview SE SV/D600 Phot, before first...

What's so wrong with automotive grade??? I have four 12v mini blade fuses fitted in my aircraft. They have been used in non aircraft critical systems eg 12V power supply plug. They are secure, completely enclosed in a moisture/dust resistant insulating cap/housing, won't dislodge through an...

Hi Akash, Can't imagine why some of the Forum experts don't answer - I feel it is impolite, not to respond to a question. Sorry, not an electronics person so my response is speculation: I assume, these days, a pressure sensitive (load?) cell. In past would have been a diaphragm or Bowden...

As this part of the Forum is for "Non Produce Related" discussion I will make a limited response; I will not engage directly with Chriscalandro - he continues with his "shotgun declarations - does repetition change the outcome? Airguy - If you can quote for me where Chriscalandro actually...

My last attempt at reason; I asked a simple question - which can be distilled down to - would adjusting A, require a further adjustment to B. B having been already adjusted to my satisfaction. At no point did Chriscalandro address this. Instead he attempted to demonstrate his superior knowledge...

Thank you for your advice RV8JD, Naturally I disagree with you. If I got a tad frustrated - under the circumstances understandable I was never even close to being rude, made no assumptions about his capacity to understand, etc however will leave that to others to decide. As for an informed...
