Wow i am just seeing this post now. sorry for the delay but I do have a reasonably good excuse or two.

First of all the answer to the question is 'yes' I do have aversion 2 of TBM 900 Hotstart hardware and software panel in late stage development. I plan to post an update soon if there is still interest.

Excuse #1 was we had a lightning strike at our pool which jumped into our house electrical system. No one was injured and there was minimal physical property damage except to everything that had an electronic brain. All our computers and most all of our related network equipment, tvs, audio equipment, all pool equipment, water well, generator etc were rendered brain dead. Fortunately our insurance company was excellent and replaced everything at full replacement cost to a few dollars short of $50,000 CDN. We were out of pocket for only a hundred dollars. Getting replacement stuff during the early pandemic months was very challenging and I only got my computers replaced in late Sept 2020 Fortunately I had most things backed up but it took months to get everything reinstalled and running again. Consequently, I was only able to restart cockpit development early this year. Good news I have made good progress on TBM cockpit version 2

Excuse #2 My eyesight had degenerated Due to a cataract to the point where soldering and computer programming Air Manager became very challenging. Then of course cataract surgeries have been delayed for months due to the pandemic. Well the good news is I had the cataract surgery two weeks and my eyesight is great now and I am able to get on with finishing the cockpit and posting progress here.

I look forward to hearing from you again

Ted

If you are still in need of some of these instruments send me a direct message. For example I have a nice master warning /caution push button that works well on a touch screen.
