Re: MGL Xtreme Transponder Controls

Thank you Bill. I was able to trace down two issues, one I claim is my fault and one not entirely. Your idea was right on…I found a blown fuse in my fuse block that turned out to be the transponder fuse. I also found some wiring that had been labeled incorrectly which caused a problem as well. That’...

Re: MGL Xtreme Transponder Controls

Scott, I think those settings are needed for the iExplorer and other large screen MGL EFIS’s. I don’t think the Xtreme has that capability. To activate the transponder on my Xtreme at least, it was go into the transponder page on the main menu and activate it. I see that I can go into the altimeter ...

Re: MGL Xtreme Transponder Controls

Thanks Scott! Yeah I’ve checked those connections multiple times and all seems in order.

I’ve looked many times and the TX on one side goes to RX on the other.

I’ll keep checking things over. Thank you!

MGL Xtreme Transponder Controls

Hello Everyone, I know there's a lot of Sonex owners who have installed an MGL Xtreme EFIS and Sandia STX-165R and are having good luck with the combination. I have finished installing the Sandia into my Waiex to follow suit, but I'm running into a bit of an issue. Since I tend to be pretty stupid, ...

Re: Transponders

I haven’t installed it yet, but I followed Mikes example and purchased a Sandia STX 165R. The MGL EFIS will control the transponder operation and the actual transponder box (only around 7”x3”x2”) will fit about anywhere. If you want to maximize panel space, that may be an option to consider.

Re: Stopping & Restarting an AeroVee

I never shut the AeroVee down in flight, but I did have several occasions where the engine would die on me on the landing roll out as I cleared the runway. My fault normally as I had the idle set too low and it simply died as the RPMs dropped too low. I did discover however that the most important t...

Re: Has anyone installed a uAvionix AV-20S/AV-30?

Personally, I would also agree that the G5 is a better primary artificial horizon replacement as compared to the AV-30 although I have heard uAvionix has released a firmware update that supposedly fixes a lot of the AV-30’s “drifting DG” issues. Not sure about others but I’m leaning towards the AV-2...

Has anyone installed a uAvionix AV-20S/AV-30?

Greetings Everyone, As I walked around the vendor buildings last week at AirVenture, I stopped by the uAvionix booth to ask a few questions on their EchoUAT (planning on installing one). While I was there, I took a look at the new AV-20S, 12 in 1 MFD EFIS display. This little thing looks pretty cool...
