 |
|
I'm working on a plan to install a Zaon traffic monitor in the 6A-slider. However, I can't take the idea of that ugly box above the panel!! Not to mention the view it will block. I'm working on a plan to mount it off the baggage compartment bulkhead with a mount that moves it up into the canopy and about 8" to 10" forward so it's about 12" to 18" or so up behind the passengers head. SHOULD have a good view of the sky and yet be out of the way with the display sent to my EFIS units.
Any other thoughts where to mount this?
Has anyone done this yet so I don't have to re-invent the wheel?!?
Thanks.....

Zaon is working on a remote mounted version of their collision avoidance system that will have a "black box", external antenna(s), and probably a 3.125" "instrument" for display/control. If you're going to be feeding an EFIS, then you might not even need to mount the 3.125" on the panel as control and display could come from the EFIS. Send Zaon Support some email and ask them about their "panel mount" version and when it will be available. Report back; I'm waiting for the panel mount version for my RV-8, although my panel is already full and adding a 3.125" is going to be tough...

Matt ... I suspect the wait will be a VERY long time. They have dumped the idea prior to OSH this year.

You can remote mount the current unit if you have a TIS compatible display like a 396/496. There's an internal jumper mod they can do to allow it to power up without having to press a front panel button. I had a long conversation with Zane (the ZA of Zaon) and he said they do the mod for sailplane installations. You still have to put the antenna somewhere it's not seriously blocked. He did say you could adjust the gain of each quadrant separately to deal with some location issues.

That's the plan. I'm working on a mount to attach to the baggage compartment wall and move the unit forward about 12" into the canopy. The unit already has the option to remotely turn on and it will feed my GRTs. I just wanted to see if anyone else had done it yet!
Thanks...

I am struggling with the same dilemma. I would really like to do the same but worry the performance will suffer by metal shielding signals - either inbound or outbound. Please post pictures of what you decide. Thanks.

Certainly... actually if it's up in the canopy I don't believe I'll get the shielding issues as I would on the dash. We'll see. I've got the mount about done. I'll post pictures on the web-site as I make progress.

If you're going to be feeding an EFIS, then you might not even need to mount the 3.125" on the panel as control and display could come from the EFIS. Send Zaon Support some email and ask them about their "panel mount" version and when it will be available. Report back; I'm waiting for the panel mount version for my RV-8, although my panel is already full and adding a 3.125" is going to be tough...

I'm working on a plan to mount it off the baggage compartment bulkhead with a mount that moves it up into the canopy and about 8" to 10" forward so it's about 12" to 18" or so up behind the passengers head. SHOULD have a good view of the sky and yet be out of the way with the display sent to my EFIS units.
