Hi all again



I am going to update the panel of G-WUFF. At the same time I will change the

engine from 912ul to 912uls, and fit a Woodcomp VP prop with

Smartcontroller. At present it has analogue gauges for electrical system,

oil temp and pressure, coolant temp, temp of a single cylinder.

Quite a few Europa's have undergone this type of alteration so hopefully

there is some experience out there.

What engine monitoring is really needed for the 912uls? I know that in depth

engine monitoring is possible with electronic displays - but does it have

any major advantages for a fairly well understood and reliable engine?

If using electronic flight instruments, is a 4 inch screen adequate? - or is

a 7 inch screen much easier to use?

Are there any recent flight test reviews of the different systems?

How do users find the Dynon equipment?

Is it simpler to buy an integrated system of engine monitoring, flight

instruments, fuel managment, GPS, etc? Or is it easy enough to purchase the

individual bits and link them oneself?



Thats enough for starters!



Thanks



William Bliss

You should have a look at the MGL avionics stuff as well, have spoken

To a few guys flying here in Australia with the oddessy or voyager and felt

it

Was the best part of the panel, full package with all the gizmos for a 4 cyl

engine

Runs about $6k aussie

Another favour I forgot to ask regarding my panel updating plans for G-WUFF



I would be grateful for photo's of existing Europa panels so I can get an

idea of what instruments may fit and where.



Thanks again

An a380 in his.
