Shawn,
This group is discussing gliders. Battery powered
gliders. The Dynon units require 8 to 12 Watts! This
does not seem like a very practical instrument for
gliders.

I have a Dynon EFIS in my Nimbus 3, 26m. I have been
cloud flying for
almost 10+ yrs in Florida...all legal, there are a
lot of
misconceptions of this...but according to the current
FAR, in the USA
cloud flying is legal.

With the EFIS, I have a Tru-Trak T&B, however, the
preferred T&B is
always a 6 degree per sec turn versus a 3 degree per
sec turn...due to
the slower speeds that sailplanes maneuver during thermalling.

Check out the Dynon site, they are very reasonable,
simple to install
and small amperes draw as well:

The ASH more in likely exceeded his Vne based on air
density &
temperature, encounter flutter...then you know the
rest of the
story...


Fly safe...

Shawn
