Panel and Avionics

My goal of keeping the aircraft simple means a VFR aircraft. At a minimum I need
  1. Airspeed Indicator
  2. Altimeter
  3. Magnetic Direction Indicator
  4. Tachometer
  5. Oil Pressure
  6. Oil Temperature
  7. Fuel Guage Indicator
I think I found something that could do all of these. The MGL Xtreme EFIS would keep everything together and be really light. When I spoke with the rep at Oshkosh he said that in about two months they will have a transponder available that would be controlled from this as well.


For a radio I am looking for something that would also work as an intercom. I am leaning right now towards the Flightline  FL-760.



The other option for a radio would be the V6 from MGL Avionics, my wallet says to go for the flightline but I like the option to monitor a second frequency on the V6.

For a transponder I am thinking about the Garmin GTX-327 digital transponder.

Well with all that panel space left over I think I want to mount a tablet right onto the dash. I currently own the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and use an aviation app when I fly that gives me a moving map GPS and all the approach plates in a great setup. The thing I like about the Samsung is that the GPS feature is a stand alone that does not require purchasing a 3GS model like the iPad.
