View Full Version : Second speaker in Ventus 2b/c fuselage
September 13th 05, 05:09 PM
I'm installing an LX7000 in my V2C and looking for
the best place to install the vario speaker. Any
suggestions from any V2B or V2C drivers out there
who have done the same?
thanks

I have a V2-A, and I picked up a couple of small computer speakers (
about 70mm on a side) I velcroed them onto the shelf behind the pilots
head. One for the vario, one for the radio. I used a four pin connector
to the ships wiring so the panel is still removeable. One good feature
is that the speakers are near your ears, so the volume can be low,
which saves battery power.

Thanks KC. I didn't know your LS-8 had a V2 fuselage! :)
There is a removable panel behind the seat back. The top left corner
(to direction of flight) has a pattern of holes behind which is the
radio speaker. The right side has a door that opens up to the battery
compartment. I ended up drilling another set of holes in the top of
that door and mounting the speaker behind it with a pair of cable ties.
It's a perfect location for hearing and not in the way of anything
else.
