Hi Jake, You may have a point there. Going forward it is definitely food for thought! However I am sole owner and I built the aircraft ( kit in the UK)and did all electrical and avionics wiring myself 10/11years ago and have never had a problem like this before in all those years flying doing...

An Update.... Not had any reply yet from my email to Dynon Support I today decided to investigate further myself... After removing glareshield and checking all connections, EMS, Ethernet and all the Dsub connectors. I did a Force Network Load on P2 as suggested earlier. This completely cleared...

Yes that is what my concern is. That the P2 display somehow appears to have lost memory. I have now sent an email to Dynon support so I will see what they suggest. Thanks for the suggestions. All good stuff. Alan

I have now found the stick I used for the last update that was done on the above D1000 screens . Version-16.7.0.11423. Installed by me on 20th March 2024. I also have another stick with my original Rotax engine EMS settings on. So do I reload that as well? Is just doing a re-load going to...

OK....thanks. 'Force Network load on P2' to re-load the modules you suggest. That I think assumes I still have the software on a stick somewhere. I will have to search for it. The P2 screen was nominated on initial aircraft build as the 'Prime' screen. All firmware updates have been done over...

Hi all, Hope you can help/advise please. Bristell NG5 with Rotax engine. UK built from from kit in 2016 by me. All. electrics done by me. Twin D1000's not updated for a couple of years so don't at this time without checking present firmware number. The system been stable with no known faults...

To update, having done a recent couple of 50 minute flights. Once again it now works all perfectly and the remote disengage button works perfectly every time! As per my thinking previously I am more than ever convinced the problem lies within my D1000 Skyviews. A software or maybe hardware...

Thanks Steve for the input. All taken on board and whilst I have looked into rigging up a temporary switch there would be quite a lot of work to do in order to do this on my aircraft a Bristell NG5. Access to the switch is quite poor and disturbing the present dual servo wiring and connections...

I have been looking back at emails I exchanged with Don Jones of Dynon back in 2020. No conclusion was found at the time because the problem subsequently went away. See below some email copy I sent to Don at the time following checking Config/Status etc. 'Hi Don, Thanks for the reply.. I have...

Yes a typo...a 5k resistor is fitted and was replaced 4.5years ago as was the actual disconnect button replaced. But at the time years ago the fault continued and then miraculously completely disappered until recently. The button itself works because pressing it it actuates the fault of 'Trim...

Hi , Thanks for the input and questions. In answer to your questions:- Both displays are 'on'. Trimamp?......I don't know what that is but my trims are wired through the Autopilot Button module giving me Autotrim. Double clicking the disconnect switch doesn't make any difference. Double...

Well.. Four and half years later the problem with my Autopilot Disconnect has reared it's head again! Doing exactly the same thing as it did all that time ago! It has worked perfectly every for all these years and all this time on every flight the Autopilot has been used. But now I have the same...

Yes I agree...I believe the answer to the problem lies in the Dynon Software.

In my experience with using genuine Dynon wifi dongles or other brand wifi dongles it seems to make very little difference to which you have fitted. The problem that needs to be improved somehow IMHO is in the Dynon Skyview unit itself/or the software and not the actual wifi dongle.

Thanks for the input Kurt. Yes that is what you logically think was the problem...Either one or both of the wifi dongles going bad. However, from when I had problems before like this in 2015 I accumulated a total 'stock' of 6 Dynon wifi dongles, all new, and have recently tried changing and...
