Nick,
I'm envious. Your left HOTAS loos so cool.
Mine is a patched together 1/2 modern era, 1/2 old school round dials.
But it's mine, and on a budget that didn't cause me to break my piggy bank.

Just wow! I never imagined it’s possible to pack such an avionics suit into this little panel space very impressive!

Panel Revision 3. This one will be in a while. 😁 It's ready for a GPS175 when funds permit.

Nice simple scan with absolutely everything you need so you spend more time enjoying the harmonized flight capabilities of the RV-4 and less time on an ADHD scan inside the cockpit.

I wanted a clean, uncluttered panel and also to retain the canopy hinge release handle so Com 2 (GTR-20) and transponder (GTX-45R) went under the panel. Electrical protection is all fuses except for the alternator field breaker; I mounted two fuse blocks on the right panel support rib.
I'm really happy with how it turned out!
