My observations are in line with Rusty's comments. On the website
you will see that I recommend the LCD for bubble canopy planes like RV-3,4,8,
etc. and VFD for planes with a roof. I started with the VFD in my
RV-4 and loved it 99% of the time. But when the sun was low and at my 6,
I had to shade the display to see it clearly. I liked the VFD look
and will use it in my -8 but will have the popular sun shade installed in
canopy to make it visible 100% of the time.
