Dear Listers,
The panel on the RV-8 got the first power up today. I interconnected all of the major instrument panel devices to the Vertical Power VP-200 electrical system and powered everything up. In the center screen, you can see Mt Diablo in California. I was playing back a flight from a portable GPS I use in the rental plane. Notice the top of the mountain is RED which means that its above our current altitude (from the playback). The Kenwood is playing a James Bond movie...
The Vertical Power VP-200 system is very cool, btw. It is basically an electrical system in a box plus a whole lot more. I highly recommend the system. Makes wiring a snap!
Components include:
3ea GRT Horizon I HX EFIS 3D Displays
XM Weather Radar module for GRT HXs
Vertical Power VP-200 power system
Garmin SL-30 Nav/Com
Garmin GTX-327 Transponder
TruTrak DII VSGV Autopilot
Matronics FuelChex DX
Kenwood DNX-8120 Entertainment w/ XM and Nav
