    --> RV9-List message posted by: "Steve Sampson" <SSampson.SLN21@london.edu> The GR 4000 is unassuming and inexpensive but seems to have what I need to run an O-320. Does anyone on the list have experience of the unit? I would be interested in comments. My concern is that once you buy it there are lots of mutually exclusive issues. What I want is the following plus intuitive access to them: > Manifold Pressure > Tachometer > 4 Exhaust Gas Temperatures > 4 Cylinder Head Temperatures > Oil Temperature > Oil Pressure > Fuel Pressure > Fuel Level (using float-type sending units) > Flow rate > Fuel remaining > Time until empty. > Outside Air Temperature > Carburetor Temperature > Voltmeter > Hour meter > Flight Timer with Interval Timer The last two lines are not so important. If it can, this unit a Dynon some comms and GPS should be most of what I need. Steve #90360 UK ---

As I remember the 4000, it should do most if not all that you want. The nice thing is that you can set limits on things like CHT and forget them until the "BIG RED LIGHT" comes on at the temp you have set. It takes a little getting use to not checking every minute and trusting the machine to let you know when something is out of line but that should come very quick. You might look at the GRT panel (saw this at Oshkosh and looked pretty good) also. Then it would all work together.

    --> RV9-List message posted by: "Andy Karmy" <andy@karmy.com> Steve, I am on my second GRT unit. First one in a minimax ultralight, second in my RV9. They work great and are everything that is needed. Yes it will do EVERYTHING that you listed below, so that's not a problem. It also has multiple custom configuration pages that can display combined data on one page. I really like mine! My "default" page is: rpm/MP OAT highestEGT/CHT OilTemp/OilPres carbT Here's a pic of how I mounted mine. http://www.affordablepanels.com/images/andyair2.jpg - Andy ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Steve Sampson" <SSampson.SLN21@london.edu> >--> RV9-List message posted by: "Steve Sampson" <SSampson.SLN21@london.edu> > > >The GR 4000 is unassuming and inexpensive but seems to have what I need to >run an O-320.
