Douglas,
 
The Xbow would require some for of air data computer to be added to the mix.  There are only two that I know of that will pass the required information to the CFS IDU's.  The MVP-50 I believe has an airdata option and supports the CFS IDU's or the Grand Rapid EIS also supports it.  I've head that the AFS stuff also has a serial link and Chelton code, but I know of no-one who is using it.  If you don't already any any of the above, then it would require the purchase of the full engine monitor as I don't know of just an Air data option.

Chelton is willing to sell their Pinpoint AHRS for $4,000 to D2 customers
 
Crossbow is willing to sell their NAV425EX-100 for $2,800 to D2 customers
 
What are peoples thoughts on the comparison between these two:
  • Have the problems that Crossbow had previously been fixed?
  • Is this an apples to apples comparison - i.e. do both include the same elements or is there a need to buy additional components for one or the other?
  • Is there a sense that one or the other is a superior product?
