The RV-10 Panel is from Lancair 2. The panel has the following in it Pilot Side AF-3500EF EFIS TruTrak Digitflight II VSG AFS AOA PRO Pacific Coast Avionics Switches CoPilot Side AF-3400EE EFIS + Engine Monitor CO Gardian CO Detector AFS AOA Sport Mountain High 4 Place Digital Oxygen System Pegasus Compass Artex ME406 ELT Center Garmin 396 Weather TIS Traffic from GTX330 Music PS Engineering Audio Panel Garmin GNS 430 Garmin GTX330 Transponder 3. AF-3400 & AF-3500 Pricing We will have final pricing before Sun-n-Fun. It will be between Dynon and GRT CDI The System will have CDI and Glide Slope from a Garmin SL-30. We are working on and will have an ARINK-429 interface for the other Nav radios very soon. AOA The system will have an optional AOA that works with our Patented Wing Ports. Screen Swapping Yes the screens can share data and exchange displays. Audio The systems do have Verbal Audio warnings "Check Oil Pressure" Engine Monitor The system has all of the features of our current AF-2500 and more. Processor Speed and Operating System The systems have a very fast and low power CPU. WE DO NOT USE Windows CE, it is all proprietary to us and very fast. We currently have 4 software engineers working on the system and we will be adding new features.

That's why he said it's predominantly installed on top of the VS. I like the idea of putting it on the bottom where it's not so visible and I'm leaning that way.

Bob Archer's antenna is a gamma antenna. The whole airframe is the ground plane. It does work better than either the top or bottom mounted VOR dipole pair.

Some distance from transmitting antennas is always a good thing but GPS is up in the 1500Mhz band well away from transponder (1050Mhz ish) and our comms (low 100's). GPS is also polarized in a circular fashion so unless they are real close it won't have any effect and even then it probably won't. Separate them from anything transmitting the best you can and you should be fine.

It took a very long time to get the right locking cylinders to mount in the handles, I'm still waiting on a few sets, I only have one sample at the moment.

They are designed to easily integrate with the Van's stock assembly. The lock simply keeps one of the geared racks from opening when the lock is closed. We are machining them this week. It consists of a new handle and lock assembly as well as a larger button that fits over the current tube. I is just three screws from the inside of the door to keep the front lock assembly attached and then one screw for the handle just like Van's stock assembly.

Might be a topic to discuss at Sun'n Fun if you see them. Robin, I believe is the owner. For what it is worth.
