I hooked an aux input for the EIS to a fuel sender… it reads fuel level on the EIS to tenths of gallons, I check the starting point from a glance in the tank to see it is near where I think it should be. On a x country I burn 4 gal per hour.. and can cross check the level on the EIS to the expected fuel burn and the flight timer. If the fuel in the tank gets below 3 gal indicated it lights up the master warning light. That is my limit for reserve.

Got one on my Hawk. I have the fuel flow option on my Grand Rapids
Technologies EIS - so far for several years it been accurate and
worked. It has provided some interesting data related to prop pitch
relative to performance (climb/cruise), and fuel consumption rate.

I love my Fuel flow gauge...
Don't let'm sell you the one called miZer...
They just put a sticker over what it REALLY is Navman 2100
It "is" a good unit...
But they charged me over $100 bucks more under "aircraft"

You are right about the expensive miZer sticker I had the navman 2100 and
my wing man bought the miZer and paid about 100.00 more only to find out the
extra money was for the cover up sticker

Hey Ellery,
You should be just about done with the Mark III X by now.
I don't hang around here... So I haven't noticed if you've posted progress....
Don't know if you heard... But the guy you made the trade with...
Can't fly... either he gets air sick.... or he got scared...Don't know.
Gotta Fly...

I put the MK3xtra on hold for a while I am about to get back into it now
the guy that had my old firestar couldn't fly without getting air sick and sold
it to someone else in MN and I haven't heard from him in a while but he had
damaged a wing tip the last I knew I dont know if he was capable of the
repair or not

Quote: | I got a Navman 3100 fuel flow meter.... my console wasn't big enough
for it, so I hand-made a box for it to go into, and put it on the
"floor" of my MkIII... all the power and cables are underneath, so it's
a clean installation.
