    Subject: GRT Sport Upgrade
    To all, To upgrade an existing unit (an S100 or S200 WS or HS) to an SX with synthetic vision is $1,400.00. Also, this is per unit. If you initially order the unit with synthetic vision then it's a $1,200.00 upgrade. Again, per unit. Take a look at the GRT price page: http://www.grtavionics.com/product.aspx?productno=1&featureno=22. We'll be flying our newest LS-1 sometime this week and it has a Sport SX with synthetic vision. We'll do a little write up and get it into the April or May newsletter. Hope this helps!

I think I read it was a $1200 upgrade. Is this true? Has anyone upgraded theirs yet? If so, any comments pro or con would be appreciated Thanks Bear N82PB

    Hi Buz, Just under 500 hrs on mine. Have put a Sensenich prop(carbon adjust) on May last year. Long story chasing engine vibrations, but turned out to be the electric actuator on the Rospeller C/S. Have had a fair amount of trouble getting the pitch right as the setting is extremely sensitive 0.5 degrees goes from being a climb prop to a cruise prop, but have it right now, I think??? I really miss the C/S but love the simplicity of the Sensenich. Prop is like the wood Sensenich with turned forward tips. Looks weird. Have been fiddling with mixture adjustment on my Rotax-runs very rich the higher I go. Most recent trip to pick up a doz bottles wine saw just on 14 litre/hr at 119-120 kts at av 8000'. Would normally be 18-19L. Works on the same principle as the Haqman?? and is best above 7000' on part throttle. No Oshkosk for a few years. By then might have a Lightning if the improvements keep coming :) Dennis would still have to be the Aus agent. Malcolm
