Finally got quasi-legal VFR conditions for a short flight today and declared total success for the auto-program mode on the EC2-EM2 combination.

 

Test started with the all zero default MAP table on the EC2 (no programming at all).   After a 12 minute ground run (slowly increasing throttle from idle to about 16" MAP) followed by a 35 minute flight,  the EC2 was programmed better than I have been able to do after years of manual tweaking.  Absolutely Magic!  Very cool watching it happen on the EM2 screen too.
