rear seat DISPLAY It makes RV- 8 a two pilot plane.

Nicely done. I like the way it folds up when not needed. I don’t know what is planned for wire management but I was concerned that Bigfoot would catch a wire getting in/out of the plane. I ran mine thru the backrest tube.

That looks almost exactly like Danny King’s RV-8 set up for the backseat EFIS. Beautiful work!

Cool! That's what homebuilding is all about!

What was the AFS 3500 depth before and after you modified it?

I have the same joystick (cyclic) grip in the front seat. I thought it would make the back stick too short having one there, so shelved it for the Vans small wood grip.

The afs3500 used to be about 5.5" plus the connectors to the back 2nd photo shows how much i removed
