Hi All, I have finally got around to making up Steevo's idea of a 10v DC regulated power supply for my Fuel Flow Sensor in my Jabiru. The module I am using is a Jaycar XC-4514 DC-DC Step-Down Module. I am yet to install this in my Jab 430 and will report when I do so. But I am really thankful to Ste...

A quick post to say, I am still very please with this set up nearly 12 months down the track.

Cheers

Hi Rainer, Some time back I asked the question above if there was a Design Item that I could use to display my aircraft's mass weight as it is calculated on my EFIS Weight and balance chart. I ask this question as I have this "Take Off Performance Chart" Image in my Voyager and I think it would be n...

Hi All, Well it's been some 4 weeks since my last post, I did moved my GPS antennas a little further apart, but not quite as far apart as Rainer indicated, but I needed to take a work trip. I did about 5.5 hours flight time with a couple of landing, 2.5 hours for the first leg for a meeting and then...

Thanks Rainer for the advice about the GPS Antenna distance and what the distance should be between two active GPS antennas. In my aircraft the antennas are not quite that distance, more like 24 inches apart. I am very lucky that it will be pretty easy to move my two antennas further apart as they a...

As I understand the pressure senor are replaceable in the MGL EFIS. I would contact your countries MGL dealer to check availability of the pressure sensors. Because due to covid, the supply of many electronic components across many different industries have been very hard to sources in a timely mann...

You have two GPS antennas. Make sure they are a good distance apart - they are active antennas. That means they re-transmit the signal to some extent - this can easily lead to interference. Hi Rainer, Thanks for the heads up about needing to have the two GPS antenna's mounted a certain distance apa...

Hi All, Well, it's been a few weeks since I added the earth strap to my engine oil cooler and flown a few hours. Firstly, I am going to recap on a few things, if you would like to bounce over this recap go down to, Start Here. I have a Jabiru 430/230 Gen 4 aircraft, it has dual Voyager EFIS's, one f...

Just quickly Jack, Not sure what MGL Avionics unit you have installed, but this advice depends on you having an RDAC unit. If you have red crosses on all your EFIS engine gauges, the most likely causes will be the RDAC has lost power to the unit from the EFIS. So check you have a red flashing LED on...

Hi All, Quick background, Rainer did post that some components when having air flowing across or through them without being well earthed, can have static electricity build up in them and then suddenly discharge electricity and voltage back into your aircraft's electrical system. It has taken some ti...
