Working through the GTX-335 install, just about finished. With the RV-4 I can’t install the GPS antenna just behind the panel because the avionics cover is sheet metal and would block the signal. Don’t want to put a white antenna on the black paint job on top. Thinking about the engine side of the firewall underneath the fiberglass top engine cowl. Anyone done this? Considerations?
- Any problems with heat or vibration from the engine compartment damaging the antenna?
- The manual says I need 9” spacing from any other antenna. I have a small antenna already in the engine bay for the G5 (which works fine), is this really going to affect the 335 antenna?
