I'm getting ready to start laying out and assembling my panel. I've decided on the avionics and have purchased them from Stein, but now I'm having thoughts of adding a second display. Here is what I have so far:
10" G3X - PFD
G5 backup with integrated battery backup
GTN 650 Xi - Navigator, COM1, NAV radio
GTX-45R - remote transponder, ADSB in/out
GTR-20 - remote COM2
GMC 507 - autopilot
GMA 245 audio panel
I had originally thought I'd mount my ipad on the passenger side of the panel, but now I'm thinking that maybe I'd like another G3X over there (10" or 7") so that I could declutter the PFD by displaying engine instruments, nav map, and so on on the 2nd unit.
The thing is, I don't have any experience with the G3X or glass panel displays. All my flying has been with steam gauges augmented by G5s and a Garmin navigator, so I don't have a good feeling of how useful a second display would be, thus, I'm looking for guidance.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Ron
