Not as far as I could see, it looked like a panel mount job bolted in. I

Hi Pete - Thanks for the steer. I am aware of the Dynon for sure and will
be doing
something like that before too long. I was just looking for something kind
of inexpensive
for now. Also, my hangar is not too secure. Does the Dynon have a quick
removal
feature so one could take it home after flying?
