19 years since I finished my rv6a. I guess it's time to upgrade the panel some. Recently a bunch of my old engine gauges have failed.

I have a D-10a and a D100. I'm trying to figure out a simple (less expensive) way to do this. A D180 or ems d10 would probably fit the bill. I already have EI probes so I'm thinking about going with their box but it's gonna be around 4k. At this cost maybe I should get a sky view and use it for engine data with my other 2 dynons?? I have tried reaching both Dynon and EI and they are very unresponsive. Hmmmm?

Any suggestions on where to start?

Not familiar with the D series as when I finished my 8A SkyView was just coming out, so went with a 10 inch screen. I like your idea of having one the D's do the engine monitoring. If you go with a SkyView it will do it all, however the EMS page takes up a little bit of screen space. As far as new screens from Dynon, I heard many different answers at Oshkosh as to when they would start shipping. Four to six months seemed to be the most common answers. The worst answer was "find something on E-Bay". I would not expect anything to happen fast. Sorry not to have any good advice, good luck.
