I did a search but could not find the answer so I will ask.
I know there are a few of you that have experience with booth the Zaon XRX and the Garmin 330. Do you see any differences in the traffic you see (or don?t see)?
Basic reason for me asking is that I don?t like the Zaon XRX?s mounting requirements. I am thinking about moving to a Garmin 330 to rid myself of the box blocking my view.
Looks like the Garmin has slightly better specs but I?m not sure how that translates to the real world.
Currently, I have the XRX mounted in their recommended position and I have seen traffic that did not show up on the EFIS. I am working on identifying a blind spot near my 2-3 o?clock that I think is caused by the metal support on my slider windshield. But I have also had some issues with aircraft at my 10 o?clock showing up on the EFIS at my 3 o?clock. (reflection?)
If nothing else, the TIS is a reminder to always look out the window for traffic.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
