Standard radio size cutout would be my choice

    So, the question is, which would most pilots want?  Any answer
    or guess is welcome.          Thanks to all for the encouragement (& patience!) on this project.

Is this an 'available first' or an 'available only' survey? If it's 'only', I suppose my vote would be for radio rack size.

Perfect world would be a round instrument hole version (2 1/4" would be fine with me)& a rack version.

OOPS, I forgot... this includes engine AND air data, right? To be of any use as a primary source of air data, it needs to be of reasonable size for my po' tired eyes. To fit in my RV-4 panel, it needs to slide into a hole left when I remove the oil pressure gauge. Decisions,,decisions.....  Will the 'small' version nestle into the real estate available for a 3" round instrument, for instance replacing the VSI?

For engine info, I want 'idiot savant': smart idiot lights/sound to let me know there's a problem. If a parameter is within tolerance, I'm not that interested in observing it.

For everyone not going west on Oct 18, the party is at Slobovia Outernational.
