Bob is right. The GDL 39 will only work with Garmin displays. SkyRadar is a good one, and we work with several others as well. NavWorx does ADS-B In and Out if you don't want to get an Extended Squitter transponder.

For those who would like all the steps: Go to the Setup Menu. Open the Primary Flight Display page. Scroll down until you see the line "Data Boxes." Make sure this field is set to ON. Highlight any one of the Data Boxes listed and press the knob to select it. Scroll through the options unt...

I spruced up our YouTube page a bit and added more HXr videos. We now have: Map Selection Tool Map Nearest Functions Selecting & Displaying Approach Plates HXr Weather-Traffic Ridealong (Just posted 4/25) in addition to the FLIR and Flight Director videos previously posted. The YouTube page is n...

Thanks Bill!

I posted another one this morning: Using HXr "Nearest" Functions http://youtu.be/2tn1aOjRox4

I've had some requests for video tutorials lately, so here's the first one. It was put together using raw footage from Jerry "Widget" Morris as he flew his HXr-equipped RV-8 home from Sun 'n Fun. This one shows how to use the Map Selection Tool to find information about airspace and airpor...

There may be a few newer features and items related to the remote radio stack that are not in there, but most of those are covered in the Equipment Supplements on the website for popular Compatible Equi...

Hi Gene, Upgrading your 6.5" Sport SX to an 8.4" screen is easy and fairly cheap-- $800 per screen. It would require you to send us your unit and we'll just replace the bezel and screen. Your display unit box and all wiring will stay the same. Upgrading it to a 10.4" screen (HXr) woul...

Without asking Jeff, I am 99% sure that the 5C+Bluetooth software package is the full 5c package including AHRS 0.43 with the addition of Bluetooth. After you upload it, check the boot-up screen to make sure your AHRS software version is 0.43. If it is, then you're all set. If not, then you can load...

As soon as I get it done!

Now that we're back from SNF and all that excitement, I can get back to work on manuals. I'll soon have some short video tutorials for you too, thanks to my friend Widget.
