Does that mean that the ECU errors on an NG will clear themselves, while they need to be reset with the laptop on the Technify engines?

I will write it up in more detail eventually. I had ECU A and ECU B fail on the RH engine departing KOWD a few weeks ago. The engine registered overspeed for six tenths of a second, I believe, but it was an insane number (4,600 RPM?), and I don't think it was real. I reduced power on that side, flew...

In January 2017 I had an actual failure of the AHRS the G1000 uses, which turned out to be five bent pins in the connector certainl...
