For those going to OSH, see if you can find one of the EFIS vendors that
will incorporate an INS like this into their ADAHARS and/or GPS:
http://www.vectornav.com/
Seems just the ticket for times that RAIM is insufficient on GPS or the
military decides to jam an area.
Now if they would just package that as a replacement for the VFR GPS
antenna that Dynon sells for $250, we could really cause some serious envy
in the certified world..

ah... the simple things can be so hard. I'm trying to install my PCU5000-X Prop
Governor. The instructions call for a "suitable" release agent to be applied
to the gasket. Any idea what that might be?

Thanks, guys. Robin, pics were taken with a iPhone 5, Nokia Lumia 920, and
Nikon D800. Even though it's a fancy DSLR, the D800 pics are probably the
least impressive, since I haven't yet had time to process them.
