Hello guys.
My RV7A is currently sitting in with the avionics team for a Dynon upgrade. Previously it had the classic 6pack, with a Garmin 430 (non WAAS) connected to the TruTrack digi 2 autopilot and steam gauge engine isntrumentation. (I'm no Avionics guru and quite new to the RV Scene myself!)
For the upgrade, the following is being installed:
Dynon HDX, Engine Sensors & Fuel flow, Hub, Single Adhars, GPS SV-2020, Dynon ARINC, with the Garmin 430 and Tru Track being intergrated.
In passing the other day, the Avionics Tech said he's not sure how he is going to approach integrating the GNS430, Trutrack digi2 to the HDX. Said something about running out of ports (gamma feeds?) and maybe having to look at switching options? I'm sure you know the drill....When these guys start head scratching, the bank account starts getting very afrad
My limited undertanding is that the GNS430 can display steering info for the Dynon's HSI and that the Tru Track can be integrated, however will also only receive steering guidnace from the GNS430 and not the Dynon's own GPS source? Would be wonderfull it the trutrack could also capture the Dynon's steering guidance..
Is there anyone who has encountered similar instal points or can offer some advise so I can pass onto my Avionics team?
Cheers!
