Avionics Upgrades
AVEX’s premium avionics upgrade panel includes multiple Garmin systems, which are some of the most advanced avionics systems available today. The Garmin systems in our premium upgrade panel are designed to work seamlessly together, providing pilots with a comprehensive suite of avionics tools. This premium panel includes a Garmin G600 TXi touchscreen display; Garmin GTN 750Xi and GMC 35C displays; Garmin GFC600 digital autopilot; Garmin GTX 345 ADS-B in/out transponder; Garmin GI275 electronic flight instrument; Garmin Flightstream 510; Garmin GSB 15 USB power and charging; and an optional Garmin GWX 75R weather radar system, all of which are known for their reliability and accuracy.
The avionics panel upgrade installed by AVEX Aviation is one that has been meticulously engineered with consideration to ergonomics and safety. One of the biggest advantages regarding these considerations is the addition of the GFC-600 Digital Autopilot. Loss of control in-flight is the leading cause of accidents within general aviation, the features encompassed in the GFC-600 make loss of control in-flight nearly impossible. Garmin ESP (Electronic Stability and Protections) is a standard feature and works with the GFC-600 to assist you in maintaining your aircraft in a safe, flight-stable condition when the aircraft is being hand-flown. The ESP feature functions independently of the autopilot (though it uses the same control servos) to gently nudge the controls toward stable flight whenever pitch or roll deviations exceed the recommended limits or underspeed/overspeed conditions occur.
Additionally, the Garmin Flightstream system provides pilots with precise navigation information and wireless flightplan transfer which allows for more efficient flight planning and route execution. The system also includes real-time weather updates, enabling pilots to make informed decisions about their flight path and avoid potential hazards.
Finally, the Garmin GWX 75R weather radar system provides pilots with a detailed view of weather patterns and hazards, allowing them to make informed decisions about their flight path. The system is capable of detecting thunderstorms, turbulence, and other hazards in real time, providing pilots with the information they need to avoid potentially dangerous situations.
A common question revolving around avionics installation is: “What will my plane be worth after the installation?”. The asset value of the TBM is defined by two parameters, the value of the aircraft in the retail market, and secondly the liquidity of the product in the market. AVEX has a unique perspective on these components as a dominant player in the resale market. Our observations are data-driven and there is a significant amount of information that shows that aircraft with upgraded panels sell for significantly higher prices and sell with fewer days on the market. There is a demonstratable equitable return on a panel upgrade from a financial perspective. It is important to note, however, that the value attached to a panel is directly related to the quality of the panel installation and the engineering considerations for redundancy and ergonomics. Panels that do not have a high-quality installation with adequate redundancy and ergonomic considerations do not fair as well on the market.
Overall, AVEX’s premium avionics upgrade panel is a comprehensive solution for aircraft owners looking to modernize their cockpit and enhance their flying experience with advanced Garmin systems. We also include a Microkits landing height system that delivers a precise and perfect landing each time.
