It will wait until I get home. Anyone done any comparisons of Dynon Skyview vs Garmin GX3? Looks similar in pricing to start, but haven't followed through with adding autopilot, and data update subscription differences.

I have two of the three screens with the LRU's on hand. I have the engine sensors on the way and will be adding third screen, 430w, sl 30, 330 transponder, ps9000 audio and a gts800 tcas. The autopilot is the new pilot gx from trutrak that can be controlled through the 375 or 370. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kelly McMullen" Sent: Tuesday, April 06, 2010 7:01 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: William Curtis's web pages Thanks.

I was hoping the spacer just "fit into the slot" with no stick cutting, but apparently not. To begin with, how much of the top of the stick do you have to remove? Leave a couple of inches for the spacer perhaps? John -------- #40572 QB.

You should consider making the stick as short as possible to provide clearance from the instrument panel (freedom of movement). Cut the notch as directed, but be sure to "clock" them about 20-30 degrees inboard. This is to align your hand to the grip in the sitting position without cocking your wrist back. If you are careful you can route the wires thru the control column. -------- Dave Moore RV-6 flying RV-10 QB - FWF Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=293293#293293 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/dscf8458_red_232.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/066_red_151.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/065a_615.jpg ________________________________ Message 9 _____________________________________ Time: 07:43:19 PM PST US From: Miller John Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: infinity grips-cutting notch in contol stick Before shortening the stick, put the seat in, sit in it and see where you want your hand and arm to rest...... grumpy do not archive On Apr 6, 2010, at 9:34 PM, nukeflyboy wrote: > > See the photos below.

Also in my case once you put the blue harness through the hole it is pretty much not coming out again due to the curve(s) the harness does from the top , into the hole and down the stick. My stick is as low as it will go on the stick, does not hit the panel in a full nose dive configuration.

I had a intermittent co-pilot PTT, had the wire been run on the outside it would have been much easier to troubleshoot, find and fix. Moving forward on the next build that's what I'm doing. Lesson learned from experience, if you want to hide it Abby makes a nice stick boot/cover to take care of that. Oh, for you inquring minds, it was a piss-poor strip, followed by a piss-poor crimp..only worked on the ground, failed in the air unless you put the stick in what would have resulted in an outside inverted snap roll...I choose to have the button not work in lieu of that maneuver. :) Rick S.
