    The Williams dual toe brake kit is a good mod. Vortex Generators, droop wing tips are also good. Still working on a list of mods during the rebuild. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=222525#222525

    I only own a volt/ohm multimeter, I can borrow an oscilloscope if that makes any difference. How can I DIY bench test a transponder, at least to see if the cavity tube is good? If good, I will take to a shop for a formal test. Thanks, Skip **************New year...new news. Be the first to know what is making

    Has anyone successfully output flightplan data from a UPSAT GX50/60 to a Garmin 496. The 496 docs state that the unit receives "Garmin proprietary AVIATION DATA protocol" only. When I look at the format of the data that is sent by a 430, it is ALMOST exactly the same as that which is sent by a GX50/60. Was this originally an Apollo data format. If so, will the GX50 talk to the 496? Or are the few small differences enough to keep them apart ? Is there any definitive paper on this ? As a last resort, I'll try calling Garmin and their Apollo support folks. Thanks for any help.

    Mine works. I didn't do the cable install or configure the units, but I do know it does work. My local avionics tech put the power/data cable in my Mooney for $100 plus the cost of the cable.

    I've got my GX-60 hooked to both by MX-20 and 396 using the same serial TX from the GX. When I set the flight plan on the GX it shows on both the MX and 396. The flight plan page of the 396 shows the flight plan name as "AVIATION IN". You can override it if you want to see something different on the 396. Works great.
