Dual Garmin G5 Help

I have a Garmin G5 in the front cockpit of my -4. Considering mounting one in the rear cockpit but don?t want to run pitot static lines back there. Does anyone know if a can bus connection between the two will mirror all the data from the FCP G5 including airspeed and altimeter?

Thanks,
Zem

Hello Brian,

The note in section 3.4.3 of the G5 installation manual explains that "in an installation with dual G5 units, pitot/static plumbing must be connected to both units".

Let us know if you have additional questions.

Thanks,
Steve
