[ex34100]

I was not aware until today about this new product comming, 2009 I think a can wait and build some other chapter of my RV10.

What can do now to get me starting, I have my pannel on the table ready to cut and wired.

I want IFR pannel with GPS WAAS approch, I was planning garmin GNS430W, do I still need it with the new product line, is new product line WAAS approved.

Thanks

If nothing else you can order the EMS wiring harness and sensor package - they have promised that that part will be plug-compatible with the current D-180/D-120 EMS. Hooking all of that up will take you a while, and that will buy time for all the facts to become more clear.

Our product line will not have a certified, WAAS GPS. The 430 would still be needed. Beyond that, the engine sensors and the AOA pitot could be installed now if you want.

Thanks for the response,

If I want to wait for this product but start ASAP to build my pannel

From what I read from the site article;

-I could install the engine sensors

-I have to wait for the engine monitor since the hooking of the sensor will be off mouted (want one screen for EFIS and one for EMS)

-I need the com nav radios and GNS430 WAAS GPS

-I need transponder.

-Do I need HSI?

-Do I need the HS34 still?

-Do not need the Auto Pilot

Our next generation product WILL have the ability to display an HSI, and be an autopilot.

However, the HS34 will likely be replaced by an ARINC 429 converter. Honestly, though, we've yet to finalize if the HS34, AP74, or AP76 fit into the next generation or not yet.
