Approach Systems Hub

Post by mike newall »

Just installed our hub - connected all the avionics up, flicked the switch, it worked :lol:

Don't know why I was so amazed but after 2 airplanes with avionics installs that weren't good - to have a plug and play system work perfectly, first time....................... I was impressed !

This is the way to go for not a lot of money - ours was about $1100 for

Its good to hear of some first hand experience with them. I think I saw somewhere that a certified plane is using them as well.

Mike, that is great!

The Fast Stack is really slick. I can't imagine installing a fairly complex panel in the standard fashion.

Although I have yet to turn mine on.. I went with the Fast Stack Hub system as well. It saved me LOADS of time on the build.

Glad to hear yours is working as advertised... I'll report on my outcome once I reach that point.

I had not looked at it until now. It does look interesting.
