Default oudie/s80 question

An update. I needed to update through two revisions of the firmware. Now everything ticks over like a Swiss watch.

I'll write up mini review when I get the S80 into the cockpit. Bench testing, I couldn't be more pleased with what I'm seeing. Very easy to manage different modes of data display and presentation. Not that I have a wide range of experience to make comparisons - my only other electric was a Cambridge. But I like what I'm seeing.

Default oudie/s80 question

Del- I highly recommend the remote stick controller. At first, I tried using my hand to control the S80 functions and didn't like it much because if you use your right hand on the knobs and buttons, you have to fly with your left hand on the joystick. If you use your left hand on the S80, it blocks your view of the display. I spent the bucks for the stick controller and couldn't be more pleased with the functionality. YMMV

Good morning or good evening depending upon your location. I want to ask you the most important question of your life. Your joy or sorrow for all eternity depends upon your answer. The question is: Are you saved? It is not a question of how good Excelsior Home Built 0 April 22nd 05 01:11 AM
