Has anyone installed a stormscope WX 500 in an RV10? I have the Stratus 2 with foreflight but I fly in the southeast mostly and we have a real juicy atmosphere with lots of convective weather. I have a Garmin 650 which will function as a display. I think the lightening info from spherics is better than XM which is just ground strikes. Any antenna interference issues? Thanx Leon

Had one in my Mooney
Works ok but remember it just shows history
I relied more on my XM weather

XM weather is 5-20 min old. Stormscope shows electrical discharges
happening in real time with perhaps a minute or two of stored information.
Stormscope is better for staying out of bad areas up close, XM better
for strategically avoiding bad area from a greater distance.
I also have stormscope in my Mooney, but will not be installing more
than ADS-B weather in RV-10.

I have one for my g500,oh that's right garmin doesn't support the gx500 with the g500 even though they said they would for four years now. So I have it on the w430's. it's mounted on shelf behind the baggage wall. Antenna way back away from all others. No problem other then garmin not quite telling the truth to us. Just like last year at osh when we bought GDL 39 and they knew it would not do traffic like they said. They did not have software ready, could not get info from w430's to talk to transponder. Not until this past April. Oh and they forgot to tell every one you need to add another wire from your wass receiver to transponder. New little insert in install manual that came out in April. Even radio shop did not know.
I'ld suggest you see one working with the 650 before you buy.
