Check out a demonstration of my new glass cockpit. I am flying over Twenty-Nine Palms. Transponder is off. Notice the wind barb on the Dynon EFIS 100. The Garmin 396 streams data to the Dynon which acts as an Air Data Computer. Rate it and please leave questions or comments.

  • Talus99-it didn't save any weight....=( 

    I had to add a remote compass, OAT sensor ect...

  • TehMG- yes there is a backup battery built in the Dynon. I also have an alternator and a ship battery, so the likelyhood of loosing all 3 is slim... also my Garmin 396 has a 'derived' instrument panel and a built in battery, so technically I DO have standby instruments! And I could always just look out the window!

  • what is the cost compared to traditional avionics? i want to build an EZ with IFR capabilities and thought a glass cockpit might be the cheaper route to go.

  • I had a broken altimeter and turn coordinator so the 'real cost' was only about 2k.

  • is that location canyons or a desert?

  • Desert, 29 Palms area.

  • I put an MGL Xtreme EFIS/EMS in my Varieze. Radio and Xpndr are Becker Units... I "gained" about 8 lbs... But the pilot lost the same weight in the meantime, so we're good ;-)

  • yeah very cool indeed- about 2400 on the website right? what additional cost for sensors etc?

  • Why do you have your transponder off?

  • NVM I see this unit had a Li-Ion backup battery.

  • No standby instruments?

    Would suck to lose electrical power.

  • How much of a weight savings do you thing the switch saved (if any)?
