Installing a 30P in my RV. Upgrading from steam gauges and a UBG-16. I am not doing the upgrade route, but instead a new install. I have marked up 11 of the 13 inputs per device.
Is there anything that you wish you had or something that you wish you didn't? O-320 with Carb and Fix Pitch to help with my ask.
1 RPM
2 EGTx4
3 CHTx4
4 MP
5 Fuel Flow
6 Fuel Press
7 Oil Press
8 Oil Temp
9 Volts
10 Amps
11 OAT
12 ?
13 ?
My thoughts...
* L&R Fuel Gauge. Was planning on keeping the old Vans gauges. Not the most accurate and in my 9 the gauges don't start to move until I am below 13 or 14 gallons.
* Est Total Fuel - I already have that info on the fuel pages
* G Meter - its a 9 and I have it on my AV-30s
* Horsepower - would be nice to know, but more of a novelty I think. Not sure how that would change the way I fly.
* Carb Temp - Never flew behind an accurate one, not sure how much they help. Maybe tell me if carb heat isn't working.
* Flight times, Hobbs, Tach, - They are all available via the times pager, well except flight time, but I have that on multiple instruments.
Also if anyone has and Red Cube mounting pointers would love to hear them. I need to do some searching later tonight.
Thanks!
