Consider not mounting the two EFIS displays side by side.
In my RV-10 the GTN-650 and audio panel are between the two displays. The GTN-650 display is marginal at best - having it mounted over in right field makes it even less useful.
My thoughts:
- The EFIS displays should be as high on the panel as possible.
- The left display is biased left, the center space for the GTN-650 is as narrow as possible and as high as possible but below the center support bracket.
- The right display is then just to the right of the GTN-650.
This leaves room for at least two Dynon modules (radio, knob panel or Autopilot panel) to the left of the left display, making good use of that space.
There is room above the GTN-650 for an analog airspeed and/or altimeter. I had both in the panel but the next plane will have just the analog airspeed.
The right display is perfectly fine for the pilot to see. I normally keep the engine monitor on that and the moving map set a a longer range than the moving map on the pilot side. Flying right seat is not much different than flying left seat.
Note, panel photo was taken before adding the Dynon Knob module horizontally below the Dynon radio module.
