It’s the PMS50 GTN 650 GPS, which I set to the autopilot screen to answer @blanston12’s question above.Question: What is this thingy/gadget under the transponder?

If this works with the free GTN 750 package, I just might have to pick it up!

Repaints is a good point, I also started some things. I wanted to apply some designs I created for the R/C version of the Decathlon, which I am building, but I am still not sure, whether I like the 3D or 2D option better. 3D is quite new for me and has its hurdles, but the 2D wrapping of the wings is a bit warped. Also not too easy.

Well, I don't regret this purchase at all. She looks great and the FD feels VERY nice. I'm going to have a lot of fun in this.
I did notice one little bug, since I flew it in questionable weather: the rain effects on the port-side window go from back to front instead of front to back. However, I can certainly ignore that. What a beautiful and fun little bird.

The Autopilot feature that is in the GTN650 and GTN750 only works with the premium version from PMS50.com - You can try out premium every Thursday of the week with their code. The other two variants do have a built in Auto-Pilot and also a G3X Touch Screen and/or the GNS430/GTN650 variant to go with it.

After having flown it more than a few times, I am quite happy with the GSN430 variant with its autopilot for those long flights. I have not joined the GTN650 bandwagon yet, don't see the advantage over the older GSN530/430 autopilots to spend 50$ for the full version of the 650 (I do have the freeware version).
