RV-3 Mount
I made a bracket and mounted my unit just behind the seatback, above the slider rail in my RV-3 slider, leaving just enough room to clear the canopy when closed. That was the only place I could find in the cockpit with reasonable clearance from ferrous metal (Zaon recommends 6" clearance). I have it interfaced to my 496, so don't need to see the unit display. The audio-out from the Garmin is run to the audio-in of the Zaon, and the audio-out of the Zaon to earbuds, which gives me audio from both (no headset audio interface or intercom in the plane). With the Zaon turned off, the Garmin audio still comes through.
Still learning to use the unit. It picks up some traffic but not all. Per the Zaon rep at Oshkosh, the Garmin display provides 22-degree fidelity (vs. 45-degree for the unit display), displays traffic within 6 miles on the moving map, and within 2 miles on a pop-up window in the lower left of the Garmin screen. Audio alerts if a conflict appears possible.
