Re: What EIS is best for DA40

Thanks all. Read both threads. Think I will go with the SureFly, no time advance. Will have to ask about the new higher voltage units

What EIS is best for DA40

I’m up for mag overhaul. Wondering what the best EIS options are for a DA40. Also what are costs for anyone that’s done them.

Thanks

Re: Da40 Gtx 335R install

I did the 345R, cost installed $9500.

A quick question, how do I increase the traffic alert volume? I’m sure it’s simple, but all the volume knobs don’t seem to do it.

Re: New Seats and Interior in the 40!

Re: Real A/C in my DA40

oh, that’s funny. Fred was my CFI, and does my biennials, I had no idea he was selling AC’s

Im sure if the 5K unit wasn’t enough for the vans here in AZ where we spend weeks at 110+ it would be too wimpy for sure.

Re: ForcedAeroMotive: SuperCharged DA40

Did the test plane have EIS as well, or is it running on Mags

Re: Real A/C in my DA40

That’s awesome. I’ve been tempted to do that very thing. I live in AZ so 30-40% of the year it’s nearly impossible to fly after 9 am. A couple questions. 1) What was the total cost? 2) Any worries about blowing hot air into the tail section of the plane. 3) Did you have to drill a hole for the conde...

Re: ForcedAeroMotive: SuperCharged DA40

I was very interested in this, but the costs have spiraled out of control. I called a couple years back and was told it would be $20K. Called the other day and now it’s $30K. Id drop 20 on this in a hear beat, no though necessary. However $30 has me thinking again. I don’t blame forced aeromotive fo...

Re: Prop strikes with hartzel composite

What prop options are available on a 2008 XLS, i'm being told the metal hartzel is not an option with power flow.

Also any recommendations on where to buy the package to change props, and also pricing people have paid or been quoted and when that was.
