 |
|
I'm thinking about installing a EIS in my FS II after looking at John Williamson's Kolbra aircraft at the Jean airport. Is there a requirment to have a battery to operate this thing? Has anybody retrofitted their aircraft with one? I'm guessing I will have to order a new panel from Kolb. My aircraft has EGT/CHT, airspeed, Hobbs and a variety of gauges that can be replaced by the EIS.

I love the EIS, it allows you to set all the limits that you are comfortable with for your engine and gives you an alarm if any of those are exceeded. Most of the time your oil pressure gets low, or your EGT gets high when you are not looking at the guage, with the EIS you get a flashing light that you cant miss no matter where you eyes are when it happens. Its well worth doing.

I have a EIS w/Battery ( Elec start - GPL )
I don't think Kolb has new panels.....it's part of the nose cone.
I think you could "make" a flat piece of "Something" to cover the
old holes ....and mount yer new stuff...
Actually , it would be a good idea to bring the panel CLOSER to you
maybe a couple of inches....
