    While you're comparing systems, take a look at MGL ...... http://www.mglavionics.com/. I'm installing two independent Odyssey systems but with only one RDAC, the engine monitor part. It mounts in the engine compartment and only one signal wire penetrates the firewall instead of the huge mass of CHT/EGT wires.

    Werner, You can go to the aircraft spruce site and price the whole thing out. You can call SteinAir and get a quote on such a system. The system I have shown in my prior post will cost me $32K. I purchased all of the radios used, although they were never actually installed in aircraft. This saved quite a bit, but sacrificed the warranty. I am doing all my own wiring, EE by trade. So you can add $$ to have the work done for you by an avionics shop. All of the systems are around the same amount within reason. There are features of some that you may want that others don't offer. Dynon is probably the least expensive for what you get, but is also the least capable system. You have to do your own evaluation for how you intend to fly. At one point I had a spreadsheet, but I can't seem to find it today. Bill -------- Bill Peyton Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=353626#353626

    Try switching the SL30 and 430W, in my RV-10 with dual Archer the SL30 is far better than the 430W. Rob Hickman N402RH In a message dated 9/29/2011 8:41:08 P.M.

    Ya, your right, that would give a better comparison.

    We are sorry about the fuel price....The current lease holder of the FBO seems to be dead set on killing General Aviation. Kind of weird hu? Well our EAA chapter is dead set on promoting GA and bringing life back into our local airport! Anyway, please do not let this ruin a great day trip. There are tons of cheaper options for fuel in every direction around KMOR. The folks here are very friendly and would love to see you here!
