I, a Lancair Avionics customer, was one that asked D2A for and received (no charge) an installation kit, including instructions, connector and the remote-mounted equipment.  D2A was insistent that I send in the 425 before they send the Pinpoint, which I finally did.  That same week they sent me the Pinpoint, which I installed successfully.  There were minor software issues, which were almost completely resolved by 12-21, when I left on vacation.  Everything seems to work perfectly except that somehow the latest Chelton (or is it D2A) software, rev 6.0A9, doesn't display the glide radius on the screen - a feature I really miss.  I'll have to find out who to talk to about that.

D2 failed, in part, because they were handing out material (ADAHRS) that they weren't getting paid for and had no legal responsibility to provide.
 
Just out of curiosity, does anyone know how many Pinpoint ADAHRS/GADAHRS D2 actually delivered? And  how many of these involved trading in a Crossbow 425EX?  (I'm assuming D2 wouldn't have delivered a Pinpoint gratis unless it was to replace a 425.)  Also out of curiosity, what became of the 425s that were traded in?
