Default Solid State Artificial Horizon

Dear Sir,

I read carefully the various posts on this newsgroup about the subject
(egyro-solid state gyro etc...).

In order to avoid heavy cabling, and minimising the available space (on
the instrument panel) and volume (behind the instrument panel), I am
slowly coming to 2 options:

Option 1 : E-gyro 2 (the instrument with a 57 mm in diameter) available
from PCFlightSystem.com. Only 2 axis available.

Option 2 : ADI from Tru-Trak which seems to be more complete i.e. 3
axis system.

Does anyone have a pragmatic experience on those systems?

Personaly I am not interested by a PDA solution because I need the PDA
for the moving map aspect.

Many thanks,
Bruno
