RDR 2000
« on: June 11, 2018, 09:20:52 am »
On my last flight the radar was only sweeping to the left of the center-line.  All seem to work but only on that side.  The display and interface is on the G600 so maybe I am doing something wrong?  It is new to me....anyone have this experience?

I've seen something similar on older radars, when there was corrosion or something which prevented the antenna from moving in a certain direction. An avionics shop could probably figure that out pretty quickly.

Ken - I don’t think there’s anything you can do to “cause” that as a pilot.  RDR2000 is a good unit worth repairing normally.

Thanks Bruce, I thought as much but have no experience with the unit.  Back to the avionics shop I guess....
