Hi all:
I currently have a Trutrak Digiflight II AP in my -7A and I absolutely love it. I have had no problems with it except for the screen issue which has been widely reported here. Trutrak of course swapped out the screen quickly and promptly.
However I am in the process of doing on IFR upgrade on my panel and I was thinking of swapping out the DII for a ADI Pilot II in order to have an additional attitude reference with no loss of functionality (yes, I understand that it's not really attitude that's displayed and I'm ok with that).
However, with a little research (read: googling) I have come across quite a few issues regarding reliability of these units, including several here on VAF.
I have no doubt that Trutrak would take care of any service issues but my main concern is I don't like maintenance issues and if I can limit them I will.
So what say you, VAF? What kind of time are folks puttings on their ADI Pilots I and II's? Any problems?
I have every intention of calling Trutrak on Monday and getting the scoop from them but I thought I would query the good folks here first.
