Hi folks
I am considering purchasing a second-hand BMA efis one G4 2 screen setup with engine pod and AP and would like some inputs from the ones who know better.
A little input on the application: It would be installed in a brand new RV10 that would be based in Brazil. I am naturally aware that the company has shut down so services and parts wold not be easy to find. However, the BMA would be purchased at a pretty decent discount. In addition, getting other systems serviced would not be that easy down here either.
My question is: is it a good/great system (regardless of the fact that BMA has shut down)? Is it dependable? i have read posts that people have had several issues with their BMA but apparently with previous versions. Has the Gen4 solved the issues? Am I getting into trouble?
I am seeing this as an opportunity to get a full glass cockpit, IFR, AP when othwerwise I would go with basic panel due to budget. Am I in the right thinking or just looking for trouble?
I have never seen one of those up close so i don't know how they are compared to other competitors. Just know that would cost me less than half of any system.
Another thing, does BMA g4 requires its own engine sensors (cht, egt, fuel flow, ...) or would it work with others?
I appreciate all inputs.
Thank you
