Thanks for all the input. I don’t hear anyone who has used the tail beacon.....yet. I have the Echo in my Defiant which is a great package paired with the GRT GPS. However it was a very difficult

My Cho is in my Longez. Xponder ant under pilots thigh support and Echo antenna under the back seat thigh support. I have had no problems!

Steve, On my VariEze, the Echo UAT antenna ground plane is installed in the hellhole, under the gear bow, with the TED ball-tip antenna protruding out through the fuselage just ahead of the cowl

I spoke with tech support at Uavionic, they didn’t recommend using the trail beacon on a long ez stating it needed to have access to sky and ground views. The recommended the use of the echoUAV, I

Yep. Works great in my long ez nose. Power ground done

Phil, what a well thought out and to the point reply

Has anyone used the panel mount for the Ipad mini in their instrument panel? Which one is the best choice taking into account securing (turbulence) cable management and cooling? Space

Hi Joe, I didn't want to obscure or change anything of my existing instrument panel. (And absolutely not the idea of a loose iPad!) Also the alphanumerics of the mini iPad are quite small so that,
