Well, thanks all. Seems the permanent installation in my LAA aeroplane gives me a few options. I will of course be doing all the installation work myself. I will not be using Velcro for anything and all Coax will be in RG400. I have already checked and an LAA MOD is not needed, just Inspector sign off of the work carried out.
The antennas locations do create a certain challenges due to the aircraft being metal with carbon fibre used in cowlings and above the instrumentation.
PowerFlarmCore also has antenna diversity meaning a top and bottom antenna is needed for Flarm...positioning location of the antenna therefore is somewhat tricky. all doable of course but needs some thought.
Anyway I just need to make sure in my own mind which is the best long term bet to go for, PowerFlarmcore or Pilotaware. I do anticipate keeping this aircraft longterm so robustness of the product and its long term future play a major part of my thought process.
Thanks again.
