Terrence O’Neill!! It’s been a long time! Are you still writing for Kitplanes? You had a nice Lancair! Did you wear it out? Welcome to Q-Ville! Trutrack should work

Jim, Not sure I’ve had it long enough to test it thoroughly. I have it under the glare screen so it usually doesn’t see direct sunlight. All it takes to remove it from the harness is push one

Hi Corbin, I chock the wheels, put a bottle jack at the back with a board/foam to spread the load, and also a jack at the front center, just behind the cowl to hold up the front. In my hangar I have

That would be my choice Terrance! Glad your getting tour Q2. You and I have talked many times. Martin

Hi; I’m buying a Q2 soon, and intend to put in a basic Autopilot like the TruTrak I put into my late Lancair. May I ask what will work for the Q2? Am impressed with the aviation quality of the group

Thanks Bruce. That’s what I though. How well does the 660 work in a hot cockpit in direct sunlight. Does it ever get hot and shut down like an IPhone? Jim Get Outlook for iOS

Just put the tail on. Safest.

That makes complete sense, I am still running the little B&C 12 amp, but I wired it so that the 30 amp could pop straight in if it was needed. Good luck with it.

Jim I assume the 496 power cord is the same as the 296. If so the 660 is a total different animal. But with only 3 wires to hook up it is a piece of cake. Bruce

Hi Dave, I thought I would wait until the dust settled but you did an admirable job saving the airframe. Thats one of the reasons I don't like taking long trips and possibly stranded several states

Put a foam block under the federate at the split. Easy and will work fine. Martin

Hey Rich, the alternator itself is fine but he would like to run better wiring to/from it along with the new wiring with all the other avionics work going on. -- Corbin N121CG

That would be the simplest and it doesn’t take long. Bruce

Bruce, When I bought my Trio, I understood the baud rate works from 4800 to 9600 Baud. I have a 496 and it has worked fine with the Trio. I am planning to switch to the 660. My question is, is the

Hey Corbin, whats the matter with the Alternator, what one have you got. Just fit the cone, its a 5 minute job. Br Rich T. On 23/09/2021 16:33, Corbin via

Corbin, I raise the tail high enough to get support under the main part of the fuselage. Then brace the engine just behind the prop. Then remove the tail. This works and will allow you to work inside

I spoke with Trio and the guy said the back d rate in the Trio will look at the baud rate of the gps and automatically go to that baud rate if my unit is new enough. If not he said I could send it in

I think this will be the 7th or 8th time for me to take off the engine. My avionics guy needs to get to the alternator. In the past, it was a normal process and all I needed was the engine hoist.

Bruce.. I just checked in manual and the Trio EZ communicate at 4800 baud rate.

Thanks Keith. I had inadvertently loaded the wrong database when I was updating my GPS 196. When I got back, I found that I could reinstall with the one that I needed. I will look into the 660, but
