Hi everyone, I'm finalizing my new Panel for my RV-8 and have a minor quandary on a couple of things. The gist of the install is going to be:
G3x Touch
GNX-375 GPS+ADS-B transponder
GMA-245 Comm panel (remote or panel mount)
GTR-20 or 200 Comm radio (remote or panel mount)
G5
ICOM 200 panel mount radio as a 2nd Comm unit
GMC-507 AP controller
My quandary is to whether to go with a remote GMA-245R comm/intercom system or a panel mount as well as a remote Radio (GTR-20) vs a Panel mount GTR-200.
I've got plenty of space for the 2 extra panel mounts. But it looks cleaner without. My main concern is not always having to go dig into the G3X submenus a lot to do basic stuff.
Anyone go through similar design decisions? Curious what the hive's thoughts are. Thanks!
