I noted that the operating temp range limit was 122F on the high side. As a reference point, I compared it to the temp range of the L-3's Trilogy ESI-1000 which is 165F on the high side. I would appreciate the observations from those of you that have used this unit. Thanks ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:25:01 PM PST US Subject: Re: RV10-List: Dynon D10A EFIS From: Marcus Cooper Terry, I use the D10A as a backup and have been very pleased with it. The internal 2 hour battery is what sold me initially (although in 2006 there weren't a lot of options). It does have some heat issues and I had to put a cooling fan above it (it is at the top of my stack) which conveniently serves as a defroster just in case. Since then I have had no problems whatsoever and it saved my bacon once already when the alternator gave out.

A few temp issues when parked in the sun for a period of time, but never in flight.

I installed a very small cooling fan after it blanked a couple times and it's been fine now for 1000 hrs.

Granted you would be depending on GPS ground speed and ground track, but in most cases that isn't a big deal if you know what the wind is at point of intended landing. I guess it partly depends on where your main EFIS connection to ADAHRS and pitot/static system is located. Mine is in tail cone to avoid moving magnetic sources, so I didn't plumb pitot and static lines up to instrument panel.
