MGL iEFIS systems

I used all MGL avionics on my minimalist -8. An iEFIS lite, extender,V16 com, Sandia Transponder, uavionics Echo and skyfx ADSB. It has a lot of advantages. The interface is so simple. There just aren’t many wires. It’s FWF mounted RDAC simplifies the FWF/panel firewall interface. The radio sounds great. The AOA indicator works great. It’s been pretty trouble free with a couple of exceptions. The iEFIS gyro/accelerometer is flakey and the audio output to the radio/intercom is distorted. MGL service said to send it back for repair.

I’d like to make sure I keep the configuration I have. I’d also like to make custom screens but find the documentation time consuming. I’m having too much fun flying it.
I was interested to see if there are other more experienced users out there.
Mike

MGL iEfis Custom Screen designs.

Mike, I have a MGL iEFIS Chalenger in my RV8 also. While my screen designs may not be 100 % transferable to a lite version they are all custom designed. Send me a PM with your email and I can send them too you. I also have a HUD being supplied by my MGL efis and I use a lite on my test bench for development as it has the same raw data as the full up EFIS.
