Default Avionics Build It Yourself Manuals

So for 35 years now we've been putting out our kits with two printed manuals
per kit ... a
"operations and maintenance" and a "construction and assembly" manual. Each
of which costs us about $2 a manual. Not a big deal.

I've got a wild hair that we can put out a digital CDROM set of manuals that
will give COLOR pictures, video "how to", and a lot of other stuff on the
CDROM.

The other person in the company says that you all want print manuals.

Please vote:

1. I want a print (paper) set of manuals with my kit.

2. I want a CDROM with my kit that I can print out myself.

3. I want you to increase the cost of the kit by $5 and include both print
and CDROM with every kit.

Please, no other permutations. Print or CDROM. No other choices.

Hi Jim I built one of your intercoms and a couple pair of headsets
about 10 years ago. I found the printed instructions to be very well
done and easy to follow even for me ( totally clueless about
electronics ) That said move with the times and go with the CD an
instructional video can only make it easier
