Default Breaker version of the control module

Hi Rob:
Will the circuit breaker version (compared to the fused version) of the control module allow modification of the specific circuit breaker amperage or is that set?
Thanks.

Yes, you can configure the individual circuit breaker amperages. With an AF-5000 EFIS you can adjust it from the EFIS screen. With a Skyview HDX you will need to load a configuration file that you edit on your PC.
The ACM-ECB also has support for dual alternators and separate taxi lights.

Default Dynon / Advance Quick Panel

I just received my Quick Panel from Advanced last week. I highly recommend them. I am installing it now. Immediate benefits are: They give you an installation manual to follow. They give you advice configuring the panel. They test it. I think their engineering and design are really good. They provide post delivery support to install it. Very easy to talk to and work with. I'm installing it on an RV-7 with TipUp. My panel is legal IFR with the following equipment.

Dynon HDX Screen, AP, Com
My lighted Rocker Switches -- which was unique request
PS Engineering PDA360EX Audio Panel
Garmin 430
Dynon D6 for Backup Screen

There is some extra labor cost for installation, Test. But the discount they give on the parts makes up for much of it. Here are a couple links to photos.

I'll eventually update my build log to show this. www.mykitlog.com/sglynn

I've decided I'm going with a quick panel, but won't be ready for it until maybe next year. Really glad to see the great reports and the upgrade with the electronic breakers. Wondering what new things will come along before I'm ready to buy.
