I just bought a new Garmin Aera 550 for my RV-8 Panel. I have it on the panel with a temporary mount for now. It looked fine in the shop but when I rolled it out into the sunlight the screen all but disappeared. The sun thru the canopy really washed out the picture. I was very disapointed to say the least. I have a Gizmo mount and plan to install it this winter when I redo my panel. My question is....Is there a spot on the panel which is better suited for this type of set up? Is there a better GPS for this application? I have used Garmin products for years but I still have time to get a refund if needed. I did buy one of the GPS sheilds to help with the glare but it still is tough to see the screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
