First let me explain a few things about my question. I purchased Bearhawk Patrol plans after I flew a Piper Super Cruiser for float plane training and a Super Cub for tail wheel training. I really enjoyed flying both planes and when the Patrol became available as plans built I ordered a set. Fast forward a few years and I have not started work on my plane but I did complete my instrument rating.
This year I was fortunate enough to be able to attend Oshkosh and got to see both the 4 place Bearhawk and the Patrol side by side. One thing that I noticed was how small the instrument panel was in the Patrol.
I am trying to get an idea of what a possible panel layout might be. I was thinking about using the Aspen Evolution avionics but I saw Dynon Skyveiw and Garmin G3X Touch have engine monitoring.
So my question is this, has anyone had any experience with any of these systems and do you think they could fit into the Patrol instrument panel with a little room for backup instruments?
