Monroy ATD-300 & ProxAlert R5
I started this thread on rec.aviation.products, but I'm also interested
to find out if anyone here has done a panel mounted installation of a Monroy ATD-300 or a ProxAlert R5? If so, where did you mount the antenna and how well does it work? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At the risk of reopening some conversations that were archived from 2004 & mid-2005, does anyone have any up to date experience with either the ProxAlert R5 or Monroy ATD 300 collision avoidance systems? I've got a SureCheck TPAS 110 that I have found to not be very useful due to sporadic readings and the lack of altitude feedback. I also used to fly a G-1000 equipped C-182 with TIS that was great for traffic alerts (in regions where TIS was available). I now have an experimental aircraft where I'm looking for something I can mount in the panel that will provide useful collision avoidance information. I'm assuming panel mounting one of these systems will mean I can set the antenna up permanently in the aircraft so the antenna positioning issues won't be as much of a problem for me. The Monroy ATD-300 and the ProxAlert R5 both look like options. The Monroy looks like it is better suited to be panel mounted, but I've seen a lot of reports of inconsistent dist & altitude readouts (all more than 1 year old). Since most of the Aviation Consumer and newgroup feedback on these systems is 1 year+ old, and there was talk that all of the competing companies are consistently addressing these issues, does anyone have any recent experience with these units purchased in recent months? Thanks, Eric 1959 Pilatus P-3 A-848 http://www.hometown.aol.com/bartscher/P3A848.html |

Monroy ATD-300 & ProxAlert R5
Thanks for the feedback on the Monroy ATD-300. That one sounds like the
easiest to panel mount. Eric |
