Ben2k9 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Thanks to Tom Baker. Coupled with the SkyguardTWX ADSB in and out + AHRS. The iFly is really easy and intuitive to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WmInce Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Nice install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingMonkey Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Seems like several owners are going the iFly route. My upgrade has been stalled due to shoulder surgery, but as soon as I'm able I will be adding this unit to my airplane to replace the aging 496. How is the iFly doing driving the autopilot? Does it hold course and altitude well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flew from southern IL to Nashville with the autopilot following the GPS course almost the whole way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runtoeat Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Ben2k9, your install looks good. My SkyGuard and iFly 740 continue to work well and have now been certified with the FAA for 2020. Don't really use the AHRS much but good to know it's there if needed. Which autopilot do you have - Dynon or TruTrak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Baker Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 I'll answer for him, it is a TruTrak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom, if you still have one of the cutout center panels from your install, I'd like to buy it. Just let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S3flyer Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Is that an Airgizmos Ifly 720 panel mount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingMonkey Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Airgizmo only makes one dock for all the 7” iFly units, so yeah it’s the same one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ls6pilot Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 I have a 720 ifly that I hooked up temporarily to my trutrak digiflight II. It would run the autopilot for a few minutes and then lose the track. I talked to the trutrak people but could not get it to work consistently . Worked fine with the garmin 296. What output settings are you guys using? Any suggestions? I might try it again. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
