Looked through my notes and unfortunately I don’t have a wiring diagram. It wasn’t that complicated though. Sorry!

@@kenjohnson6137 Thank You!

Thank You! 🙏

@@TuomoMooneyFlying that’s a sweet older Mooney! 😜👍🏼

@@KTWardlaw Thanks! She’s got some miles on her but still flies true and fast. Such an awesome machine!

Thank you! That’s a very generous compliment! Appreciate it! Good luck with the training! It will pay off in the end!

Bruh iPads are literally supplements to appropriate technique, accuracy, smoothness, knowledge, procedures, judgement and flight management, the basic domains of competency. Nothing wrong with adding to your own situational awareness with a technological resource, following the appropriate advisory pubs on EFB’s from your national authority.

@@restrepo88 Ive watched a lot of videos describing situations where Ipads were depended upon and didn't work. If you can't even follow the instrumentation in the plane, what makes you think another distraction is useful. The IPAD is a crutch for a lot of people and causes bad habits to be formed.

I’m not sure what in my video prompted such animosity for iPads? The fact that I use one like 99% of other pilots? I agree that a proficient pilot needs to understand the airplane and its instrumentation and not rely on an iPad since it’s not an approved instrument. That being said, the iPad is a huge help for situations awareness and for IFR use with georeferenced plates. Pilots used to use Sextants and then came nav sources, I don’t hear anyone crying for Sextants even though VOR’s are being decommissioned. Technology improves and we as pilots must move with it not against it. That being said, thanks for checking out the video and popping into the channel!

If a pilot is digging through paper charts and approach plates in IFR instead of quickly accessing needed map using an iPad, that pilot is a dumbass….plan and simple. Are you in that camp?

It was hard for me at first, as it was most people. Then it clicked, and I got it. You'll know when it happens.

Thank You! Highly recommend getting started with the instrument!

Thank You for the fantastic interview, it really meant a lot!

@@1dullgeek hahah, yeah definitely some humbling moments! 😁 at one point you could have asked me what my middle name is and would not have been able to tell you.

@@TuomoMooneyFlying 😂🤣

The rough dimensions were explained in the video, unfortunately I don’t have a drawing available. The long sides are 24” and the width was 10”. If I was going to do this again, the pivoting fork needs to be beefed up, and the articulating attach arms mechanics need more refinement. Closes great, opens not so great. Thanks for the kind comment!

Enough to push a Mooney with full fuel up a small slope. But the spec of the motor is listed on eBay, just follow the link in the video description.

Thomasville Fly-In is mid-October which is where I was going.

It’s a Lightspeed Tango wireless. Good concept, not so good in reality.

That’s a fantastic setup! What made you decide JPI900 over the 275 EIS?

@@TuomoMooneyFlying Not having to switch screens to see info. JPI displays it all on one screen.

Looking forward to it! Would you happen to know what airports?

I am the Field Service Manager for GAMI, and I am working on the distribution issue. CA will be first with production in Houston and railed to CA. There will be lots available in Houston to be delivered by truck to the airports. The distributors of AVGAS are the ones who decide who will get it first. The FBO's need to tell their distributor that they want it at their airport. @@TuomoMooneyFlying

Yeah, I’ve been meaning to do a video like that. Maybe once I hit 500 subs ;)

Thank You! Appreciate it very much and hope to meet one day!

Thank you for the kind words!

Thank You!

Thank You!

Thank You! Yeah, it was a no brainer. Definitely recommend flush mounting if possible!

Hahahha! Thanks! Yeah, that controller was wide awake 😂

My numbers are in mph, but I burn around 11.5 typically with WOT.

Sorry, unfortunately not anymore. But the measurements were pretty straight forward.

Hey Mate! Yes it’s a M20F. Thank you, big difference for sure! Thanks for the kind words!

Sorry to hear you got hit with this but better to fix it than worry about it later!

@@TuomoMooneyFlying still gets the pocket book though! Trying to get the annual done so I can fly it to Reno next week 🤞🏼

@@TuomoMooneyFlying Turns out mine weren't the weights in question... just flaked paint, misdiagnosis by the shop. Thankfully they are making it right.... A quick check involves a strong magnet per the service bulletin.

The Courtyard, really great place to stay even though it’s a bit farther down from the shops and restaurants.

😂 it may or may not have had a role in the decision making..

Welcome to the mooniacs family! Your first Mooney? Send me a message on mooneyspace and I can ask my mechanic if he’s interested in taking on more Mooneys 😁

@@TuomoMooneyFlying yes sir! Will do. Same username?

Thank You! It was a super fun project, I do have some 2.0 ideas if I ever need to redo this 😁

@@TuomoMooneyFlying What are your 2.0 ideas. We are looking at building tugs for 3 club aircraft, Archer, Arrow, 172, and a Van's RV10 . We are hping to use one design and modify the grip arms

@glenellyn100 that’s a good question. I would definitely modify the grip arms. The current solution uses a cable to actuate them but it hasn’t proven to be very good solution. The linear motor instead of being on the side could go in the middle of the frame and push the fork out or pull in as needed with kind of a scissor like mechanism.

Thank You!

Thank You!

Yeah, the AV-20 is pretty cool for such a small box!
