MGL Avionics User Forum

Hi All,

I have been very busy with work for quite a few months.

But if you are like me when reading a forum thread looking for answers, you hope if an answer has been founded it will be posted, and not found and the forum forgotten about.

So just an up date on the issue of my Voyager EFIS ...

I am also interested in the possibility of using my Voyager EFIS and by adding a TSO Garmin 430w as the primary GPS, to use it for the odd NVFR flight.
Any further thoughts from those who have ventured forth with such in Australia, you can pm me if you wish in confidence.

Cheers

Thanks Brad,

Hi All,

Just to follow up further on my GPS issue.

Firstly, I believe my MGL Voyager EFIS's being ten years old are still worthy of being fixed if you can do so or find someone who can do this for you. My EFIS's have 1000 hours of flight time and I would say another 600 hours being powered up ...

I was getting excited !!

Hi All,

Back to the GSP issue, so I have pulled my panel out again, lucky it only takes 10-15 minutes to have it out and ready to go home.

Once home, I swapped the EFIS's over so the pilot side is the EFIS without the GPS issue in flight. I then opened up and removed the GPS /Comm's Board out of ...

Firstly, thanks Alain for you post and I did miss this until tonight, but thankyou for your experience with the GPS/USB board. I am thinking you could be on the money.

Alain, can I ask what actually made you think it was the GPS/USB Board?

I did try swapping the tacho back to the ignition coil ...
