    Remote Magnetometer logic and connections

    Thanks. I'll get to work on an ADAHRS move!

    Remote Magnetometer logic and connections

    My Skyview HDX installation is in a new composite airplane, with dual ADAHRS located below the baggage area and much too close (a couple inches) from the ferrous rudder cables. Now, before you condemn me for not reading the manual, let me say that I didn't install the ADAHRS-- it was done by a...

    Sectionals no longer clear and bright

    Well, yes, it is there and I stand chastised. Knowing how to turn the weather overlay on/off was not the problem to me. It was knowing what would happen with no weather input, i.e -- on the ground. And yes, that is there in the manual, too. And going back over one of the youtube videos...

    Sectionals no longer clear and bright

    Ahhhh... As I said, there must be a reason. If it was always a full screen shading, then the simple flag that weather is not available would suffice. But if you can have PARTIAL shading for specific area, it makes sense. Just goes to show you need to be as smart (or almost as smart) as your...

    Sectionals no longer clear and bright

    Magic!! Thanks guys- that was it! Trying to figure it out, I spent 1-1/2 hours in the airplane (with aux power supply) going through menus, programming, etc. and a couple hours in the manual, and didn't see any clear reason for the pink/purple screen. I hadn't much fretted not seeing...

    Sectionals no longer clear and bright

    Yes altogether possible --,I'll check in the morning. Is weather not compatible with the sectional? Now that you mention it, I don't think I have ever seen weather displayed at all, and that was going to be a question once I got to it and could honestly say "its not working" vs. "I'm too...

    Sectionals no longer clear and bright

    I have twin 10" HDX displays and a GTN650 in a "new" experimental with 40.5 hobbs hours. I normally keep a Seattle avionics sectional chart on the right screen, which up to now has been clear and sharp. However, now the display is too dim to read (even in the hanger), kind of "pinkish" in...

    Differences between HDX and Classic worth the cost?

    Thanks for all the replies on the HDX and Classic, and value of the GPS 2020 alongside the gtn 650. From the Dynon web (unless changed since I was there), The HDX didn't appear worth the money, and with no trade shows this year to look at the product, I would have gone with the classic. But...

    Differences between HDX and Classic worth the cost?

    I am at the point of having a panel built for my EAB. On their website, Dynon lists a comparison of HDX vs. Classic, but it doesn't really show much difference except one is touch, the other is not. But from this forum, I gather that the HDX screen is brighter, but off axis viewing and glare...
