MGL Avionics User Forum

Today I feel like having a rant. I have to admit that I'm disappointed to have bought MGL. It's certainly cheaper, but you pay for it... Every single product I've had had to be sent back to the factory for repair (iefis explorer, 2 servos). After-sales service is almost non-existent, the forum is ve...

Here are some pics to explain, I tried with another sd card but same result, the efis don’t want to boot on the firmware

update : solution described doesn’t work.

Is anybody can give me the right plate file name format readable by the iefis?
