Here the current status as of December 28 2012 on the new RV-8 2.0 Rebuild. This video highlights the new instrument panel including the recently finished cockpit audio output for the video camera. Line level output from the airplane's intercom is routed out through the RCA outputs in the rear of the cabin through some matching circuitry in the gold RCA connectors up to the camera's Mic input. The matching seems to be working pretty well. The audio in the video is coming right from the intercom and includes a mix of the intercom voice, the music or DVD output from the Kenwood stereo, and the audio output from the Garmin SL-30 Com unit (aircraft communications radio). Yet to be wired in is the audio outputs from the EFIS's, the VP-200, and the ADS600B. Note also that the video output from the camera is also routed in though the new A/V panel and then out through the headrest LCD display for the passenger. The video is also available on the pilot's Kenwood display. Everything is working pretty nicely. I'm particularly pleased with the new A/V panel I/O. Works as great as it looks! :-)
