Re: Stopping & Restarting an AeroVee

I never shut the AeroVee down in flight, but I did have several occasions where the engine would die on me on the landing roll out as I cleared the runway. My fault normally as I had the idle set too low and it simply died as the RPMs dropped too low. I did discover however that the most important t...

Re: Has anyone installed a uAvionix AV-20S/AV-30?

Personally, I would also agree that the G5 is a better primary artificial horizon replacement as compared to the AV-30 although I have heard uAvionix has released a firmware update that supposedly fixes a lot of the AV-30’s “drifting DG” issues. Not sure about others but I’m leaning towards the AV-2...

Has anyone installed a uAvionix AV-20S/AV-30?

Greetings Everyone, As I walked around the vendor buildings last week at AirVenture, I stopped by the uAvionix booth to ask a few questions on their EchoUAT (planning on installing one). While I was there, I took a look at the new AV-20S, 12 in 1 MFD EFIS display. This little thing looks pretty cool...

Re: incident N32YX

Bill Orkis sold this airplane a few months ago to a new owner who was using the airplane for flight training.

Re: Question on 40 hour requirements being partially flown

Everyone is offering spot on advice. The original Operating Limitations will specify the Phase 1 test area the airplane must be operated under for Phase 1 so if you want to relocate to a different area, you will need to contact your local FSDO for amended Operating Limitations to include a new test ...

Re: insurance roundtable

I just renewed my insurance through Global:

$40,000 hull value and my airplane has been flying for 9 years and 350 hours now.

No change in premiums going from AeroVee to Jabiru 3300

I have fairly high qualifications (ATP, CFII/MEI)

This years premium is $925. Up around $125 from last year.

Re: MGL RDAC RPM connection to Jabiru 3300

Hi Rick, thank you for responding. Do you remember which sensor you used? I assume you mounted it to the point next to the flywheel?

I used an alternator output that plugs into the voltage regulator and it’s reliable most of the time; there’s just an RPM range where there’s an error.

Thank you!

MGL RDAC RPM connection to Jabiru 3300

For those who have connected a Jabiru 3300 to an MGL RDAC, Im curious of anyone has installed an inline resistor to the RPM #1 hookup. I don’t have a resistor installed and continue having an intermittent RPM fluctuations between approximately 1700-2200 RPMs. Above or below that range and it works g...
