I think I may have goofed up here on panel planning... my original plan was for a basic IFR panel in my -8; have the usual steam gauges, no vacuum system, was planning on a Dynon for ADI and compass/DG duties. Now comes the new ADI from TruTrak; looks like a lotta bang for the buck, so I ordered that instead (still 6 weeks away).
My question is, since I have no DG, will the TT ADI with its GPS track display (not compass heading) suffice for IFR operations in lieu of a "gyroscopic direction indicator (directional gyro or equivalent)" as stated in 91.205? Anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm starting to wonder if I should cancel the order and go back to the Dynon with its internal compass/DG.
Thanks!
