Direct-To Avionics has
introduced a custom-tailored Chelton EFIS system for the Vans
RV-10. Dubbed the Chelton EFIS SV-10, Direct-To Avionics tells ANN
that it has broken new ground in capability and ease of
installation of sophisticated, flat panel, integrated flight decks.
The two-screen SV-10 system incorporates not only the rock-solid
Pinpoint Inertial GADAHRS, it also features an integrated
prefabricated wiring harness of exacting quality.
"When interviewing several RV-10 builders, it seemed that
aircraft wiring was somewhat of a mystery,” says Direct-To
Avionics president Kirk Hammersmith.
“So we set out to make it as easy as possible for the
customer. First again in the industry, we're proud to offer our
RV-10 pilots a way to simplify their EFIS installation. Our Chelton
EFIS SV-10 aircraft harness is a major break-through to the end
user and should save a builder hours of complex wiring and
engineering.”
That custom-engineered SV-10 harness eliminates and consolidates
over 130 electrical connections. And it’s not just a harness
for the Chelton EFIS, it includes wiring from wingtip to wingtip
and from firewall to rudder. The harness is supplied by an
aerospace company which also manufactures harnesses for the F-22,
the F-16, and to Airbus and Boeing and its construction reflects
commensurate quality and integrity. It comes ready to go and is
plug-and-play with not only the two Chelton EFIS screens, but also
interfaces readily with the new Pinpoint Inertial GADAHRS, the
Trutrak Autopilot with pitch and roll servos, Garmin SL-30 Nav/Com,
datalink, and PS Engineering audio panel.
