RV-8 with a heated pitot probe but no AOA. Seems like the easiest install for my AFS 5500 EFIS is to get the Dynon heated pitot/AOA to replace the current system. Probably will require removing the left tank for easy access to mounting the additional line and to install the controller box but at first look it seems like a pretty straightforward install.
Recently I’ve been flying my buddy’s RV-8 with a Garmin cockpit with the AOA display on the glare shield. This along with the aural tones is far better than looking inside at an EFIS. I don’t look at his AOA display much on final, mostly just looking outside, cross checking airspeed and listening for the tones.
If I do install the Dynon Pitot/AOA is there a compatible display similar to the Garmin GI-260 that would work with a Dynon system?
