I have been searching the forums and have found tons of information on this topic but none that quite seem to meet my particular setup and questions. I'm looking for thoughts on the following setup.
GRT Horizon EFIS and EIS
Dynon D10A for backup with battery backup and for autopilot
GNS 430W primary com and nav
Icom A210 second com
GMA 240 Audio panel
This is going in a 4. I am curious about comments about the Dynon D10a as backup versus traditional steam gauges. The other option I was considering in the way of steam gauges is an AS, Alt, and TC for backup. Eventually a TruTrak autopilot. Obviously space is limited.
It seems to me that the dual glass setup with separate type Efis would guard against the software fault. With battery backup on both that would guard against electrical failure for a time. That leaves the only real fault area that I can see being a pitot static failure. Am I missing anything? Is the dynon AP a reasonable alternative to the TruTrak lines?
