Re: ADS-B Install Experience
Just got ADS-B upgrade installed in my DA40. Cycle Aviation at KJYO installed a GTX345R in a similar manner as the original poster. The upgrade took two weeks. Cost was about $8400 not counting the FAA rebate. It was slightly more expensive than others have quoted because they had to remove the A/C ...

I think I've read almost every thread on leaning in this forum but I'm still having some issues with it. If I run ROP I cannot keep the CHT below 380 unless I'm burning around 12-12.5GPH. At that point the mixture is practically full forward. If I run LOP I can easily keep the CHT below 350 and only...
