Having a wide variety of choices for building a high tech panel allows many of us to achieve our dream of affording a homebuilt aircraft. Builders on a budget can still have state of the art functionality on their panel with some of the offerings available on the market today.
This week's Tip features a low cost but very high performance EFIS panel that is supplemented by your personal tablet (or smart phone) - either Apple or Android connected to a Talos Avionics AHRS (Altitude and Heading Reference System). What this means is that accurate, critical flight information that has been available on multi-thousand dollar systems can be had for a fraction of that cost.
A look at this short video will show you the kind of flight information
that is provided by this system. Whether as a backup system for an existing panel or as the primary display on the panel, you may be surprised at the functionality available at this price point!
