Brief Description: Panel Plans
|
|
After thinking through the panel I have come up with several iterations that I plan to open up to the VAF Forum crowd and let them give me some feedback. The mission is light IFR, I want the ability for file and fly IFR and go direct where able, I also want GPS approach capabilities. The EIFS is all Dynon, I liked the ability to transfer display modes between the screens. Some of the shots below show the HSI display on the Dynon 10-A. The first shot is my first draft; I removed a clock and G-meter that was to the left of the FLT DEK 180-EFIS/EMS.
I wanted the intercom and all radios in one stack but there is no room for this unless I use the horizontal HS34, so that is how I came up with version two. Then I started thinking I think will use the -10A in an HSI mode much of the time so why not have the HS34 near the -10A but I did not want it on the right since that is my flying hand. The AP-74 on the right is OK since that is the Autopilot control, the flying hand should be free at that time. The intercom panel seemed the most logical item to remove from the stack since I think it would be used the least inflight; the transponder would be my second choice for the center if I had to choose. In the center it is still easy to access without upsetting my flying hand. The last version and the one I think I like the best has open space on the right, I cut and pasted in an approach chart and clip, the idea is to rivet a clip on this side of the panel to hold maps charts, fight card etc. So look for my post on VAF and let me know your thoughts.
Switches will be boost pump on the left subpanel, mags, master and alternate power on the right sub panel and all others on the sloped panel along the right side. Flaps will be controlled from the stick.

Don't know if the intercom would be better above the 496

This gets all radios in the stack

The one I like best, I might list to the left though due to the weight
