From the "Closed Systems" thread :
I am just opening this thread for discussions about what kind of avionic architectures and avionics busses would be good for experimental aircraft.
I am of the opinion that there need to be two styles of busses in the airplane - one, a high reliability point to point network capable of typically 100 kbit bandwidth useful for controlling servos and passing small frequent data values and a second high speed high bandwidth bus that allows anything up to and including digital audio and video streams and large files to be transferred between subsystems.
I am assuming a clean technical slate here - much or most of the hardware has not been designed or invented yet.
Brainstorming is welcome. Fire away.

. . .In any event I think this thread is done. I don't see the exp EFIS guys expanding to the airframe anytime soon or using anything beyond a 'defacto' standard. If anyone would like to talk about working on a bus based airframe I would love to start a new thread on the subject.
