    Pros

    Sturdy, well-built, feels professional, easy to assemble, packed well for shipment.

    Cons

    VERY expensive.
    Instrument panel gear down LEDs failed within the first hour of use.
    I was extremely disappointed to find that the $ 4500 system is shipped with outdated software (version 8). Version 9 is available, but you must buy it separately!
    Calibration is clumsy.
    Manuals are outdated - one contradicts the other

    General Comments

    Ordering it was a hassle. Sporty's charged my credit card for the full $4500, but only delivered the single-engine throttle quadrant. I had to call and complain before anyone recognized that they had failed to ship 95% of the product.
