- A truly affordable, high tech EFIS (electronic flight information system) for your experimental aircraft is possible with products like the one we are showing here. This is a quick overview of the Talos Avionics EFiS that currently sells for less than $600 when used with your Tablet or smartphone. Perfect also as a backup to your primary panel avionics.

That is an exciting new product. Thanks for reviewing it!
thanks for getting that onto the channel. ready to fly my ultralight cross country to far away places.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm looking into this company now.
The information I have been looking for! Thank you for sharing sir! This set up is perfect for my needs!!
Thank you for sharing this product.
It just made my avionics bill incredibly small. Just amazed. Subscribed.
I really like that and I really appreciated the jentelmen I believe it was you I saw interview that used a drone nav.sistem for his autopilot on his experiment aircraft very Kool and very nice of him to share that with us !
Enjoy your videos lots of good information thanks
great product and great review.
This is an excellent technology Thank You for sharing
awesome product - thanks for sharing
Thank you, Sir!
Awesome videos
Very very goooooood
Thanks
Thats awesome.
Thanx. It's unfair U have all the great stuff there in the US and here in Africa, South of the Sahara, we can only wish and wish...(and hope 4 a better tomorrow)
Fabulous, now we need a cheap ADS-B transponder and com radio combo
This would be great in my gyro! I want it!
Hi, great video. Have you ever come across anything simular that displays engine info?
awesome and about time ....i dont know where garmin gets their pricing but we need more competition .........remember GoPro was $400 and now anyone can make a 4k camera for $30 on ebay ....lolol
Just got a horis and a digi from kanardia, haven't put them in yet but this would be good as a backup or even in my other airplane.
Mounting of that box seems like it would be critical, much like ADIRU'S in the commercial world. which the trays that hold these are laser aligned.
Great Product, low cost software. Can you use a Rasberry Pi with sensors to feed the same information? Hopefully someone has done this and has a working file for an SC card into the Rasberry Pi. Any links would be appreciated.
If the little AHARS box requires wifi connection, would you need a wifi antenna?
You do such a great job with your videos! How about a two part video on doing the annual inspection of the RV 12?

How does this compare with the "BOM" and similar products such as the "wing bug" that are on the market today?
this could give a whole new meaning to my i pad crashed.
can you split the screen between PFD and overhead map?
I’m thinking about using this in my weight-shift flex-wing AirCreation Clipper. It would probably give the most meaningful data if mounted to my wing, rather than to my fuselage. Anyone tried doing that? What’s the range of its wifi signal?
Wow! Great product. How far is the wifi reach? I'm thinking of using for the back seat of an Aeronca Champ.
BTW. Thanks HomebuiltHelp. Great channel.
Mike Sax better off with Stratus with synthetic vision. I use it in my Cub and had a pocket sewn into the back seat so passenger sees everything I do. I use two mini iPads for display. Don’t have to hook up any wires. Also gives me ADSB In so I see all aircraft with ADSB out. Plus so much more.
Great but much stronger if they added synthetic vision maps in the software as well which is near cost free to produce. Also rid the display of the legacy tapes. Just clean numbers. Much better.
I like it!!! Good to know, I am going to order one.
Can we use this as part of ADS-B system?
which you using gyro sense ?
A nexus has most of those sensors and if you already have one it costs $0
does it use Wi-Fi or does it use Bluetooth?
I have one of these and IT works great, HOWEVER it is the iPad that is no good as the screen is far to dark to be seen in daylight and the reflective glass makes it impossible to use in bright weather. The box works well but it does need a brighter back lit screen which is not available.
You can try an inexpensive Samsung Tab A or other Android tablet to see if it's better.
just use a non reflective screen protector. Your complaints seem pretty flimsy.
Deez Nutellas - Urm... No. He is absolutely right. I use an iPad outside and even with a hood on it to shade it from the sunlight and an antireflective screen-protector, it's just way too dim on a sunny day. It's not a flimsy complaint when you cannot see the information for which you are using the device. It's a deal-breaker.
Are you used arinc 429¿
nice.. but how do you attach your tablet or phone to your aircraft dashboard.. ❔
Lots and lots of tablet mounts out there, with adjustable angle. Just use google-
Miraculous.
I don’t think tablet EFIS should be taken very seriously though .! I know it is better than nothing but then again would you want to fly without a artificial horizon .!
It looks like it's "barely" under $600 if you have to buy the app for it? However, does that mean it would work on FlyQ EFB as well?
Thank you for your comment. If you have purchased an Aeolus-Sense 3B or 3C device, actually you don't have to buy the coloured version of the app. You can download the A-EFIS Free which is a black and white version and in case you are connected to an Aeolus-Sense Wifi network it recognises the existence of the device and the app becomes coloured automatically! Awesome isn't it? The coloured A-EFIS app is mainly for those who want to use the app as a backup with the internal sensors of the smartphone/tablet. We are currently working on the integration of Aeolus-Sense devices in third party apps like iFly GPS, FlyQ EFB, Foreflight, AvPlan EFB etc and we hope that we will have some good news soon. We do appreciate your interest in our products and please feel free to share with us any further questions or concerns you might have via our support e-mail.

Talos Avionics thanks
Where can you buy these
What if the GPS satellites are not available? All the electronic solutions that replace the mechanical gyroscope rely on the occasional updating of gravitational forces. But if the sensors is exposed to horizontal forces other than gravity for an extended period of time, the direction of gravity will be inaccurate. All major aircraft have a mechanical gyroscope for 100% accuracy. Therefore, the mechanical gyroscope cannot be missed.
i wonder if it accepts a waas antenna?
It's got a GPS antenna and it's the receiver that has to have WAAS, Im pretty sure . Any antenna with right GPS unit.
I'm not building an aircraft, but I want this anyway!
ok
$1850.00 to $925.00 on their website. These prices are all the same compared to the brand names. In fact there are few with better price value out there.
600$ that price is long gone. dec 2019
TALOS show nothing available as of Oct 2022
I hope it is secured connection because i would not want to have EFIS hacked, even when its only "backup" (i suppose anybody buying it would use it as primary and analogue as a backup). Definitely prefer hard wire connections, any wifi, bluetooth can be hacked, i'm fine with my phone being hacked (if someone likes stupid cats photos i have thousands of my own cats being cats feel free to hack it) but hacked EFIS could be dangerous.
Dear WolfKenneth,
Thank you for your comment. We have to inform you that the connection is secured enough to prevent any hack issues. However if we suppose that someone manages to hack our system he/she would have to be with you inside the cockpit during the flight, since the wifi reception can be detected only within a few meters away from the device. We do appreciate your interest in our Aeolus-Sense device and please feel free to share with us any further questions or concerns you might have via our support e-mail.

*hangs under wing trying to hack in...* lol
Buy the wired version....your unfounded worry us resoled ...
@@c7042 that's a stupid comment. Ckearly you have no idea of what wifi is or what wireless communications are. Your clearly are not the brightest lightbulb on the Christmass tree. Time to join modern times reality.
I wouldn't bet my life on a consumer-grade computer tablet or smartphone.
One would hope you'd have the sense to have minumum backup primary flight instruments like airspeed and a compass. That's all you need to get safely down in a VFR flight.
Actually, in VFR, you need a clear window which to look out of. My flight instructor had us do circuits without looking at the panel; it's a good practice to practice.
exactly my thought, but luckily there are military-grade rugged tablets I would go for
The cheapest I found is 900usd+
I think the wing bug is a better deal.
Deluxe
This is a scale up verion of RC telemetry software and hardwares
AriVovp - Yup... Could do all that with a Pixhawk for a fraction of the cost !
600.00!?!?!? Not overly expensive
Price benefit is pretty bad. There are better solutions with similar prices.
Kanardia Horis, Garmin G5, Avmap Ultra EFIS, GRT, etc.
AXIS not AXES.....
Axis is singular, axes is plural. One axis, three axes.
Axis is singular, while axes is plural - as in three axes.
I said that only last month.
Who's axing? lol
That the great thing about English language, even with bad spelling, bad punctuation and bad sentence structure the authers intent is still fully understood and correctly comprehended. Only English freaks care.
Woooow pay 600 bucks for same sensors that ipad has already.
Interesting, but I wouldn't trust my life on some consumer grade gadget.
Pretty cool. EFIS for all the poor folks out there who fly Luscombes, Champs, Interstate Cadets, etc. What's next: a world without voter suppression?
