BRS Handle Location (taking up valuable panel space).

Post by McCreary637 »

I am wondering if it reasonably practical to move the BRS handle from the panel to an overhead position (like Cirrus does) in the Sling HW. Given the limited panel space in the Sling, that handle panel space could be used for something else (like the proper controller) so that there would be room for a GTN750xi rather than a 650. It seems that a 750 is incompatible with a panel mounted prop controller.

The current factory builds now have the parachute handle in the overhead.

Reigate is correct as the latest HW Finishing KAI has the installation of the BRS parachute handle overhead in the forward part of the Roof Center Panel. Always learning something interesting.
