seriously at solid state instruments but the least expensive (Dynon)
advertises that their instrument fits in a 3 and 1/8" hole. That

more, lots more and all that extra information fits on the screen
too...somewhere. Besides, it costs over $2,000 just sitting there.

BTW the Dynon EFIS has an encoder built into it.
With all the stuff it has its a real bargain at $2K.

Yup, it is. It has 10 instruments built into it. The only thing that
detracts from it's functionality is that the screen is pretty small,
less than 4 inches across. All that information from the ten
instruments goes on the screen somewhere.

So yes, you could buy that one instrument, plant it in the middle of
your panel without anything else and have all you need for flying
information.

Buying each of the ten instruments would cost more than $2000.

Of course, should the power supply go Tango Uniform, you've lost
everything at once....
