I hope to take my RV7A to the air in several months, but I'm intimidated by the users manuals for all my avionics. Stacked together they must be about 6 inches thick. I think I'm safe in saying that trying to learn how to use all the avionics during the first several flight hours, isn't a good idea. I should be flying the plane, not trying to push buttons and twiddle knobs. Unfortunately, my avionics manufacturers do not have any DVD's, Videos, or online training aids. Question.........how does one learn how to use all these fancy gizmos?
My panel is comprised of the following: Dual Grand Rapids EFIS and EIS screens with internal GPS, TrueTrac Digiflight II auto pilot, PMA8000B Audio Panel, Garmin SL30 Com, Garmin GTX 327 Transponder, and ICOM A-200.
What have others done? Are there any folks out there with similar setups who might be willing to fly with me and teach me how to use this stuff?
