The sensor packet has an Outside Air Temp (OAT) Sensor. Will this calculate and display Density Altitude on the EFIS?

I know the plan is to keep the display simple and clutter free. In fact that is one of the reasons I like the TruTrak EFIS. I am not interested in moving maps, highway in the sky boxes or flying with a virtual reality display on the EFIS in front of me. I can get that type of info from my Garmin 696. However, a couple of more data points would seem useful. I would like to see options to display density altitude and winds on the EFIS display. It seems you would have all the data required to present that information. Anyway, just my .02 cents. Take it for what its worth.
