Anybody seriously interested in teaming up?


I started one, but then found a Navaid too cheap to pass up.
I bought the BX24 development kit, and had a great time programming
it to read the autopilot signal from my Terra, and then the NEMA code
from my GPS, but I got the navaid before buying a gyro.

Many pilots are upgrading the Navaid to a Trio solid state unit.

I can tell you that an acceleation chip reads nothing in the air.

There is some freeware for an altitude hold.
