I haven't decided on an autopilot yet, but I was wondering if the roll servos that are out there would use a more or less similar wiring harness. If, for example, I got a SteinAir wiring harness for a Trutrak servo, would it be compatible with another AP? I guess I don't know how many different servos there are, do different AP's use basically the same servos?

Good Morning All, This is not particularly Aero Electric specific, but many of us do use either the GNS 430 or the 530 for navigation. I often play with the Garmin simulator so that maybe someday I will get good enough to use ten per cent of the capability instead of only five percent. Along that line, it would be nice to have a more current database than what Garmin supplies free. They are now using a 2007 based data bank. A year ago or so, someone posted a method whereby we could update the database on the free simulator. I tried that last spring and it worked great. However, I lost the procedure and would like to install a new update. Do any of you know how to do the update? Or, does anyone remember who posted the procedure? Sure wish I could find that old procedure.

The USB serial communications is 'party-line' communications on a twisted pair. The host controller (usually in your computer) queries the data bus to see who's out there and which of several modes of communications are being requested. Only one device can talk while all devices can listen. Hence, unlike RS232, there are no separate tx, rx lines. >I also don't like the 24ga wires included with the plug. Are there >any USB plugs that I can add on my own wires or have 22ga wires? Digikey sells all manner of serial data cable connectors. An exemplar A plug that would accept 22awg wire is here http://tinyurl.com/plg4goq They sell for about $3.50 When I need a USB cable that will carry power out to an accessory, I usually order a 'high current' pre-fab cable and cut one end off. You end up with a more compact, factory installed connector on the far end.
