I have a D10A in the RV6A which I am about to sell. The previous owner installed it when the vacuum pump died as it solved that issue, made the airplane lighter and gave attitude/heading which were not sensitive to aerobatics. It was my first exposure to Dynon products and I was hooked.
The airplane has an existing autopilot which works well. Since the autopilot is the major difference between the D6 and D10A, it occurred to me I could swap the units as I have a friend who would like the D10A for all it does in my plane and he wants to install the Dynon servos and gain an autopilot in his plane. It does not affect the value of mine with D6 vs D10A since I do not use the autopilot.
Here is the question. Are the units "plug and play" compatible? Will the remote compass transfer over or is that calibration data stored in the unit and I will need to recalibrate (not a big deal, just curious). Any other factors I should consider?
