Sling Pilots Forum

Follow up question: does the stock heating and air vent system work sufficiently, as long as small issues arw being addressed? Evan has suggested a mod and I was wondering whether it's worth to investigate further.

Very helpful. I actually thought the issue would be fitting the switches vertically instead of horizontally. I will also use the Advanced Control Module (similar to VPX) and rely on a single screen, so it seems this might work as long as I use the co-pilot's panel section.

I know that you are not lazy. I've been watching your videos for guidance and emotional support, especially when I mess things up

Now that you have a better idea, do you think the aerosport switches would fit the panel?

Any updates on this mod? OneAlphaMike on YouTube mentioned that he uses a tape as well. I am based in SoCal but it appears this would be helpful even in that region.

Navigator will be Avidyne 440 because my home airport (KVNY) doesn't have GPS approaches, Avidyne integrates perfectly with the AFS and I am not a fan ...

I spoke with Barry from Torrance about this topic today. It appears that flying into/out of short strips (2,000 ft or less) at high altitudes would make a brakes upgrade meaningful. I decided to pass.

Thanks! Using widen the fiberglass tip with cloth and resin seems like the obvious solution. Of course, it didn't cross my mind

Hi - I am confused with Rudder beacon and wiring Beacon: the rudder tip max width is 1.5" but the options I find in the market (Aveo Minimax Ariel is supposed to be a good option) are closer to 1.75" width. I even asked the factory, and they recommended SimplePack Tail Nav , which is also ...
