Hope all is well. Wondering if any Aspen owners witnessed this same issue in the past. The conditions were the following. Getting ready to taxi out to runway 28 at KELM. We let the plane idle for a few minutes to bring up the oil temp. The OAT was ~ 34F. Started to taxi out and the Aspen decided to call it a day. The unit flickered, shut down and then rebooted. It continued to do this same repertoire up to holding short of 28. The unit stabilized so we began our takeoff roll. Then on rotation it started shutting down again. In flight we reset the unit and this seemed to solve the issue. Anyone experience the same issue ? I can send a video of this issue if it helps.


Thanks

Leo
