So my wife and I have owned a Tomahawk for about 3 months now and we have noticed that when the weather cools down and we turn on the Master switch that there is a long delay in the avionics powering on. This past weekend we flew to Dallas and it was pretty cold on Friday morning. We had to turn the switch on and off several times before we got power. From what I understand about the system my best guess would be that the Master Switch Relay could need to be replaced? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
