Just wanted to advise everyone that we are at about 98% complete on the new carbon fiber panel. Barry Smith (barrysmith2009 at gmail.com) graciously undertook the task of printing custom 3D trim rings for the instruments, and they are gorgeous! My cost for a totally customized trim-ring package was $129. You can't beat that with a stick! Barry and I went back and forth for several months, getting the diameters perfect, the depth perfect, and it shows!
I took a few snaps today, and they will be available for viewing tomorrow at http://ellwood-designs.com/kr2. You can take a look at that site now to see where we started, then take another look 1-2 days from now to see where we arrived. I removed the Garmin 196 (with dock) during the creation of the new panel, and installed an iFly 700. It is a squeeze, but it looks like it belongs there! Dave.
