Re: Multiple connections to 740

My D180 will show cross wind components without anything "connected " to it. That has always been there even before the ifly 700 and later the 720. I do wish that the D180 had a better ( more up to date communication buss ) that would allow some of that. To my understanding about all that can com with the D180 is a D10A and or the engine instrument dynon product of that same vintage. I wish that the SV was an easier upgrade to the D180 but thats not going to happen either. Someone needs to build a hub where all instruments would terminate to that hub and a multiconnector cable would go to the EFIS of your choice! How bout it Adventure pilot?
