LX Nav (experimental) in a JS1

Nice, notice the Russian helicopter in the background. I would still want a mechanical ASI, and altimeter as back up and a LX V3 with UPS battery pack as a back up vario. With this panel there is no space for back up instruments in case you lose power to the main bus.

Dream panel for me would be LX9070 with V80 and AHRS, compass, flaps, and remote stick options. LX V3 vario with UPS battery so I have a backup vario if I lose the main bus power. Air-avionics radio and transponder core, so one panel hole and transponder is controlled by radio, NMEA output so the transponder will have ADS-B, Butterfly vario, power flarm core, winer 57 mm ASI and Altimeter, and while I am not sure why compasses are still required equipment I would find a bohli (might as well get the best.

This is pretty much what I'm planning for my new ship. A few (probably stupid) questions for you: 1) What is the smallest battery that the LX V3 would have? 2) Why both the V80 and the Butterfly Vario? Can't the V80 do everything that the Butterfly can do? 3) Any idea if all that would all that fit in a JS1's panel? By my reckoning, with the jet control unit taking up one slot then there wouldn't be enough space for both the V80 and the Butterfly but that's a guess.
