Roger what do you mean basic gages are still required? Do you mean by
FAA or just as a good operating practice for backup safety?


I do not believe you have to have any steam gages in an experimental if
you have the required instrumentation in electronics. Of course if you
are flying IFR then you would want backup, I would anyway.
