Question for all of you...I'll be moving into the h/w stages of my =
flight deck soon. Looking for advice on whether to go Epic or Hagstrom =
for interfacing.
=20
What are the pros and cons of each? I've heard that Hagstrom will limit =
you quickly while Epic, although more complex will leave more doors =
open. I'm a developer, so I'm not afraid of a little code but don't =
want to make a second career of writing code for Epic.
=20
I'm concerned with how I'll be able to link in things like annunciators, =
etc. without using something like Epic.
=20
Any advice?
