ADS-B Costs

By how much would you lower your offer on a flying RV which did not have ADS-B?

You don't specify In or Out. UAT or 1090ES.

For UAT "out" 2020 minimum compliance for an Experimental Amateur Built:

With TSO'd IFR WAAS Navigator in place (approved source like GNS430W/530W, GTN, IFD, KSN etc..) about $1,000

Without IFR Navigator position source about $1,400

Thx Jim.

I should have specified In & out

A popular choice has been the Garmin GTX 345 (in/out) with built in GPS coupled to an Aera 660 to display traffic and weather, this will set you back about $5500 for equipment and around 1K for installation at my shop. They're are probably a few cheaper alternatives but this one is hard to beat IMO.

The lack of ADS-B may have already been factored into the price of the plane.

I'm in the process of installing a Garmin GDL-82 right now. The cost for the package is $1795, but there can be a lot of labor involved. You'll also need to purchase some coax cables and/or connectors, plus an indicator light, switch, and fuse or CB. You will need a Mil-Spec crimper for the connector pins. My labor is free, but I would guestimate $2000 for the extra parts and labor, taking the total bill to the $4,000 area.

My most common install is the Stratus ES if there is a WAAS navigator installed or the ESG if there is not. He price in my shop, including installation, is $2,800 and $3,000 respectively. The 2i for ADS-B in is $600 extra.

The GDL82 is another simple option, which I charge $2,500 for, including installation.

I personally prefer the 1090ES option, but some prefer the UAT either for cost or for the anonymous mode.

Please PM me if anyone wants a GDL-82 installed. I would be glad to install your 82 for you.

Thanks for the offer but I'm pretty much done. The GDL-82 is mounted, the GA-35 antenna is mounted, and all the wires are run from the panel to the unit. All I lack is pinning the power connector and programming the darn thing. I have to tidy up the coax cables, too.
