Eligibility Tag Rev A

Can I replace only the indicator in my airplane?

No. Our indicator is not compatible with any of the Cessna transmitters.

When Cessna introduced the electric flap system, the first indicators were manufactured by A.C. Spark Plug. Cessna later (around 1965) switched to an indicating system manufactured by Stewart Warner. These two systems were not compatible with each other (see Cessna service letter SE70-12 dated May 28 1970) and Cessna recommended replacing both the transmitter and indicator at the same time.

Current replacement parts are manufactured by a third company named Rochester which are also not compatible with the earlier systems (see Cessna service letter SEB00-9 dated Nov 6 2000). THE COST FOR THESE ANALOG REPLACEMENT PARTS RUNS APROX $1,800.00 FROM CESSNAS AND THE WAIT TIME USUALLY RUNS ANYWHERE FROM 12 WEEKS TO 6 MONTHS.

Are any airframe modifications required to install this system?

No, just remove the old Transmitter and Indicator and replace with the Visual Instruments Transmitter and Display.

Will I need any other parts to complete the system?

Our Flap Indicator Kit includes all parts required for installation: the transmitter, display assembly, hardware kit and instructions and STC paperwork.
