So, I spent some time laying out a new panel for my 601..  

Any thoughts?

I hate you guys. You are releasing those just far enough in the future that they aren't an option for me.



Guess I'll just have to live with the 180. Poor, poor pitiful me.

If it were me...



I would move the Dynons ( why not a Grand Rapids  ) further towards the center so you have more edge room on the panels.



Looks good though.

Thanks for the suggestion.. Actually a couple people have suggested I move them further in.. LOL.. I honestly just randomly taped them to the panel to show them off. Depending on how things work out, I may start with the 7's and upgrade to a pair of 10's eventually once we release our Com radio and transponder. ( I won't need the panel space for radios )

Why not Grand Rapids? LOL.. Because Dynons are the Best! and the price is right.  

Just in case anyone out there was wondering how my fuselage just seemed to have appeared.. I was the person who bought the $1500 deal in Lynnwood, WA about a week ago. It was right down the road from me, and the workmanship was excellent. It was just a little more complete than a Quickbuild.

Congratulations on your new baby.



But why don't you design in an MGL Odyssey (shipping since the 

beginning of the year) or Voyager - then you wouldn't have to wait 

until 2009 for a large screen EFIS 



There were working Voyagers from the first production run in the MGL 

and SteinAir booths (next to the Dynon demo).



Just kidding - I'm sure the new Dynons will be as useful and popular as 

the current products.

Hi Dan



Your panel design is very interesting! I noticed that you have two 

rectangular instruments in the middle; were these meant to be the comm 

radio and the transponder? I thought that the new Dynon unit could be 

purchased with these included.



Will it be possible to operate the new unit with the D120 in something 

like the current D120/D100 combination? i.e. sharing screens?



Best regards

Give me a break. It was early and my sarcasm detector hadn't booted up yet.

Dan,



The next gen dynon units are most impressive.  I stop by the dynon booth here at OSH daily to gawk at them.  Of course, you guys suck because I have already purchased my dynon gear already!!  In comparison to the next gen stuff my panel all of a sudden looks archaic.  I've included a picture below.  It looks like a major avionics upgrade is in my plane's future and its not even finished yet!!

Hello Ken,



Sure you can always find fancier panels, but your panel would

be a huge improvement over the panels I find in the 30 year

old planes I regularly rent. The more advanced Dynon panels

might even invite to flight into riskier environments beyond

the basic VFR. But it certainly is nice that they combined the

navigation (map) display in their system, but you loose the

redundancy of map and EFIS.

When I looked at your panel picture I was actually surprised,

I am only just about to start the fuselage and here suddenly

was my current draft panel concept already in real life. Do

you have higher resolution pictures that you would be willing

to share (or email me personally). Two other questions, what

radio did you decide upon and is the hole on the right of

the Dynon for the announced autopilot control panel?



Regards,

	Maarten,

          plans building 601xl,

          about to finish the 2nd wing

Hi Maarten,



I'd be happy to send you pictures of my panel, however I am in OSH as I type this.  When I get home I'll send you some more pics.



I went with the Garmin SL30 for Nav/Com and a Garmin GTX327 for the transponder.  My GPS is an Avmap EKP IV.  The hole in the panel is for the Dynon AP76 autopilot module.  The Dynon equipment in the picture is an HS34, Flightdeck D180, and EFIS D100.



Regards,



Ken Pavlou
