Reviews

Bought the Vega along with the V16. The Vega display is bright even in bright sun under the bubble canopy. Easy to operate in bumpy conditions and menu is easy to navigate. Works well in my Kr2.

MGL VEGA VHF CONTROL HEAD (2 1/4" DISPLAY)

August 9, 2022

Another good experience with Michigan Avionics customer support. The user manual for the Razor control head does not appear to be available here on the Spruce website nor on the Michigan Avionics site. I used my Michigan Avionics online account to open a support ticket with them last evening to get a copy of the manual and it was emailed to me this morning. Thanks, Adam, at Michigan Avionics. There might be some product link problems here on the Spruce page. I hit the link to submit a review for the Razor touch screen control head but this review modal is listing the product as the Mgl Vega Vhf Controller, which is not correct. I hope this review makes it to the correct product page.

Super lightweight and small. I put in in a corner of my panel and it easy to read and operate. Very happy with the ease of installation and simple wiring. Only sorta gotcha was the Allen head mounting screws and the nuts that they send with the unit. I tossed them because they didn’t go with anything else on the panel.

The advertising fails to state if it just the control head and or the radio. Aircraft Spruce habitually minimize and incorrectly get buyers attention before bumping them or upgrading by failing to state all the modules required to be purchased. Then there is the installation kit, thats right, what you expect with the item comes as a separate package.
