RFguy Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 Anyone used the Dynon HDX kit ? Looking for non Garmin options... -glen
Kyle Communications Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 both are out of the ballpark expensive..thats why I went with MGL. Had great service from the different MGL EFIS I have used over the last 12 years..and half the price or even less 1

For non-certified/non IFR, the Kanardia Nesis III may be worth a look at about half the price.
KRviator Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 Why limit yourself to HDX? I have twin SV Classics and love 'em. And they're a lot cheaper on the used market.
RFguy Posted August 11, 2023 Author Posted August 11, 2023 Hi All, thanks for the replies and ops. Yes, certified. Otherwise I would go MGL in a pinch. Eager to foster competition in the space hence looking at non Garmins (nothing wrong with the Garmin, is the top kit) . Although I'll probably end up with a used '430 or '530 since they're very affordable.
RFguy Posted August 18, 2023 Author Posted August 18, 2023 update. on the HDX performing a CDI (course deviation indicator) function . using an ARINC429 interface (a type of aviation instrument bus) between a WASS GPS IFR approved navigator (like 430, 530, 175 , 375 etc) the HDX skyview is FAA approved for IFR for using the CDI function in the Skyview. That is, no discrete CDI required in that case. (according to the manufacturer in writing) .
