    Very nice Darrel. 👍 Nicely laid out. Always liked the GRT EIS.

    Question. Whose 2 1/4” radio did you install in your panel. Zoomed in and thought maybe Micro Air or Becker but not sure.

    Thanks DF4 - the radio is a Flightline 760A. It has been working great. (One probably shouldn't make that kind of statement on anything in a panel without the ol "knock-on-wood" motion though.)

    Thanks Darrel. Yes. Do not ever speak too loudly about avionics working properly.
    Went for a short flight with Desertdave today and my radio quit working.
    Also can’t get my ADSB-out to work. 😢 Frustrating.
    I have a new Flightline 760A. Almost put it on here to sell. Guess I’ll hang on to it a little longer until I discover what’s up with my MGL V6.

    Thanks Geek.

    DF4 - For the money I like the Flightline. The only "problem" I have/had is wiring for the intercom. The way I read the instructions, one wire needs to sink to ground to activate it - so I installed a on-off-(on) switch and it turns out nothing is needed. Go figure. I works just fine in the off position and I now know I have extra switch/wiring.

    Can you tell me where you got that fuse panel? I'm looking for something similar.

    I've been waiting a really long time to be able to post my panel here. That time has arrived. I've spent more hours that I will admit designing and prototyping to get to this result. I'm personally very happy with it. It was created in CAD and laser cut at a local shop and then anodized black. Each grouping of buttons is specific. Lights/Equipment/Heating/Warning indicators along the top and then engine along the left. I probably tried about 20 different button types along the way but the mechanical feel of the "standard" ones and their solid feel is why I ended up using them. I used upgraded knob style buttons for my dimmer and cabin heat fans and a 5 way hat switch for the control stick. (PTT, trim up, trim down, radio flip-flop, ident). All fuses are through the VPX except for 2 required for the 912is engine which are located on the bottom lip to the right of the throttle. I used EL ribbon for the dash lighting to meet night requirements. Each orange section is it's own aluminum plate panted to match the fabric.
