Re: indicated airspeed on new Mini install

Right about now I guess I should mention I've been flying this exact model of plane since '94. 3,000 hrs now, so though of course anything is possible (as in my two other old style ASI's lying to me all those years!) to see the degree of change I am now seeing is a good indication something is not q...

Re: indicated airspeed on new Mini install

My AD s/n appears to be: 155. I only had a brief time in the cockpit, work interfered and I didn't get to go flying, but for sure my main flight display seems to indicate MPH. I assume this means just that, that it is set up for MPH and not to indicate knots. On my initial setup I changed it over fr...

Re: indicated airspeed on new Mini install

I'll check that AD serial # today, looks like another good WX day. That was my first thought, I was seeing knots! But unfortunately I am pretty I have it set up for MPH.

indicated airspeed on new Mini install

I just got finished with a total panel re do on my Rans S-7S, now the only round gauge is my hour meter. With 1530 hours on it I am emotionally attached to it. The panel is carbon fiber (not labeled or finished yet but here's a picture anyway). I now have a little over 3.5 hrs on the Mini install, a...

Re: Wrong CHT temps

Bob, Halfway through reading your response, I realized where I had gone wrong, and went out to the hangar to confirm it. I had somehow construed the wiring directions so that I had the white wire from the sensor going to ground, not back to the EIS. Powering everything up confirmed the now correct r...

Wrong CHT temps

I am consistently showing (EIS 2000) CHT's of 800 plus degrees, while my old steam gauge, re-installed until yesterday, shows the usual 180 to 230 degrees. It seems to show high by about a factor of 4. I have triple checked my install, everything is correct. I am using the probes supplied by GRT for...
