One our builders put in an early version of the Efis 1. Many, many
problems. We had another customer hire a professional avionics shop do
his whole panel for $30,000. That was probably cheaper than the time,
trouble and money invested doing it the amateur way. Some people have
had better results, others are similar to ours. Check their builder's
forum and find some other discussion groups. Definely look at other
alternatives at Oshkosh before plunking down the big bucks. 'Nuf said.
