As some of you know, I was intrigued reading this month's Kitplanes Magazine article on engine monitors. I thought it was a very good introduction to what they are and why builders should install them.
It made me want to learn more and I'm sure that's the case with other builders too. The article didn't really do much in terms of a comparison because, as Marc Cook (editor) said on VAF, doing so would require getting various engine monitors in one place and then having the time to test each of them out; financially and practically out of the reach of most folks.
While I agree with people who say "this is something you have to learn on your own," I think there's value in the experiences of those who've already gone before.
So... like the transition training questionaire a few weeks ago for a piece in the RV Builder's Hotline, I'd like to do the same thing with engine monitors.
So, if you have one, these are the questions:
1. What engine monitor did you go with.
2. In your research, what did you determine to be your priorities?
3. Have you been satisfied with it? If so, what features do you like best?
4. What do you like least about it?
5. What was your total cost?
6. Is there anything you would do differently?
7. anything else?
Please send me the email off list (you can post it here too if you want but it'll be easier for me to pluck 'em off email so do that too) at rvnewsletter(at)comcast.net.
Also if you have a picture of you and your bird, can you email that to me too?
And thanks!
