Narrative:

Immediately subsequent to picking up clearance airborne; I was climbing to 2;000 ft and upon entering IMC; I encountered turbulence and updrafts. At that same time; I experienced a partial panel failure; and related electronic problems. I was informed that I was 400 ft too high; whereupon an immediate descent was initiated. No further problem ensued. The next controller asked me to call approach upon landing; which I did and advised them of the situation which I had been experiencing.far 91.187Operation under IFR in controlled airspace: malfunction reports.a) the pilot in command of each aircraft operated in controlled airspace under IFR shall report as soon as practical to ATC any malfunctions of navigational; approach; or communication equipment occurring in flight.b) in each report required by paragraph a) of this section; the pilot in command shall include the -1) aircraft identification;2) equipment affected;3) degree to which the capacity of the pilot to operate under IFR in the ATC system is impaired; and4) nature and extent of assistance desired from ATC.I am unaware if I was violated on this matter.
