Welcome back to the channel! In this video, I take you on a step-by-step tour of my budget-friendly IFR avionics upgrade in my Cessna 172B Charlie Foxtrot Mike Victor Uniform.
If you’re a private pilot or avionics enthusiast, you’ll love seeing how I saved thousands by choosing the best components—avoiding ecosystem lock‑in—and learned all the button‑pressing for proficiency. Drop your questions below about panel builds, autopilot setup, or anything else you want me to cover in future flights!
