Re: Explorer EFIS pitot/static nipple

Hi V.A. Long EZ, Sorry to hear you broke the tip off the static sensor, my guess you would be better to get the unit fix with a new sensor, sending to MGL Dealer. Rainer might have an other suggestion. Others might find this a helpful hint. I always use a hot air gun (or you could try a small hair d...

Re: Issue with Voyager EFIS GPS.

Keep it up Jim, Your persistence increases the knowledge base. Cheers Mike Thanks Mike for your words of support. I never really know if my postings of failed attempts to resolve an issue with my long wordings are seen as a positive thing to reader about, or does it just cause a point of frustratio...

Re: Issue with Voyager EFIS GPS.

That's like putting a non-waterproof box of kit on a boat. Paul, I get the picture and like the analogy. ;) Am I getting off subject ? I can cut Rainer some slack, my only experience with MGL products is limited to my two 12 year old Voyager EFIS systems. But I really believe, the Voyager EFIS with...

Re: Issue with Voyager EFIS GPS.

This is just getting ridiculous, in my opinion. Do you see Garmin and Dynon owners wandering around with EMI diviners, re-soldering parts that have shaken themselves to bits or looking for grounding excuses as to why their kit doesn't do the job it's supposed to? Meanwhile the silence is still stun...

Re: Issue with Voyager EFIS GPS.

Jim, I believe that in modern aircrafts with lots of electronic devices, you will never totally get rid of EMI and the EFIS itself is probably one of the main sources of EMI. After all the things you’ve done during that year, you have probably decreased the level of EMI but, in some circumstances h...

Re: Issue with Voyager EFIS GPS.

Hi Alain, Yep you are right, I have not used your good advice in getting one of those newer GPS modules. But, I am a bit little a dog with a bone. I would like to find and resolve what is causing the EMI or RF interference in my plane, if I can? I guess I have not lost all hope in being able to trac...

Re: Voyager going crazy. Airspeed, Altitude and Voltage

Hi All, I am thinking this will be my last update for this thread. But one last thought, I've had my EFIS's in and out of the plane many times to open them up. Of cause this movement of wires both behind the instrument panel and inside your EFIS where they may have been fatigued by vibration, can al...

Re: Issue with Voyager EFIS GPS.

Well over the last 2 hours of flight time this issue is slowly increasing again with bitching Betty saying "GPS not Available" then "GPS Available" in quick succession and as I said before it's now my Co-pilot EFIS's GPS that has the problem and it's starting to happen more often again. Now my Co-pi...

Re: Voyager Take Off Performance Chart for Jabiru 430

Hi Rainer,

Can you tell me if there is an Design Item I can use to display my aircraft's gross weight?

I can't find a Design Item to do this.


Cheers

Re: Voyager Take Off Performance Chart for Jabiru 430

Hi All, I've been asked where I found the jpg file for this Chart for the Jabiru 430. I have added this image as a jpg file, it may be to lower quality to convert to a MIF file for your size EFIS screen. _____________________________________________ Jab430PChartV1.jpg _______________________________...
