Congratulations Simon.

My understanding is that It should be applied to existing airframes. Think of it as an AD.

I wanted to test this but had to update the firmware to get the ring first, no bad thing. Mine is sucker mounted, so I rotated it in all three directions for a good five minutes and almost got a complete green ring. It looks as if you have to rotate slowly though. I fully expected to get a message s...

Are they confusing 'self constructed' with 'home-built'? The first implies the pilot built the aircraft, they second that it was built by an individual, rather than a manufature.

Have a chat to Rupert at Hercules Props Best to speak to LAA engineering as things are never simple when making what are sig...

What happens if you open a DV panel?

Sounds like a pragmatic solution.

but can you a glass DI?

Sorry T, don't understand the question. Can you rephrase it?
I am assuming DGI is a directional gyro(DG) combined with a direction indicator (DI)?
