Hi All, I'm a UK pilot close to starting my IR(R) training and was looking buying a Jeppesen Navigation Data subscription, but before I do I have a few questions that hope someone may be able to answer: 1. Does that Nav Data include approach procedures, SIDs & STARs - their web site says it...

Can we have the option to have the autopilot cause the aircraft to orbit around the end of the last leg if you don't have a runway selected for the approach? Perhaps it could orbit at rate 1/2. Thanks Carl

I'd like checklists you can create where you can acknowledge each item with a click/tap of a button. The checklist item then turns green and the focus then moves down to the next item. You'd also need an option/button that resets all back to white so you can start again if you get interrupted...

FYI UK Pilots. I've just fitted a SV-ADSB-472 in my Europa with a standard transponder monopole antenna and flown within the range of the TIS-B and FIS-B test transmission down near Goodwood. It's looking good (see pic)!

I've noticed the same thing, but only quite recently. I was putting it down to interference from other kit I have installed. I never used to hear it. Dynon, are you sure it's not as a result of a software upgrade on the radio?

I've had some problems recently with the auto pilot no transitioning to VNAV mode despite being on the correct heading and approaching the extended runway centre line at or below the 5 NM leg. I found that it does transition when I have the barrow set to the airfield QNH, but not if I have the...

Hi Dynon. Any news on this feature request? Thanks Carl

Hi, I'd like the option to be able to select either IAS or VS to be maintained when the the AP button is pushed for the first time. Perhaps on one of the auto pilot set-up screens. The fact that it currently tries to maintain VS is much more risky just after take-off than trying to maintain...

I have been flying for over a year with SV, paid for PocketFMS data and an ICAO chart and had the same problems you are all experiencing. I tried flying without the chart, but found that the way Dynon rendered some of the map objects was difficult to see. The airspace colours and designs were...

Yes, I used to use the dark theme, but I quite like the terrain theme and I couldn't see all the airspace objects, so I did some research and a little tweaking. I'm very please with the results.

I don't use the EFB (I assume you are referring to EasyVFR). Perhaps you could post the relevant section of your settings file for all those who do? All the best. Carl

Here is a before and after screen shot of approximately the same are. See how it's difficult to see the yellow airspace objects in the before shot? They are easily distinguishable in the after shot. This was using the setting in the Dynon_Improved_Airspace_Colours_2.txt.

Here is an updated set of colours that replaces the hard to view yellow airspace objects with blue/red. Enjoy!

Hi All, I've been flying with a SkyView D1000 for a year and very pleased I am with it. However, I've always found the standard colours used for the various airspace classification, CTRs, CTA, etc., a little odd. Some of them are hard to distinguish when you fly with Terrain selected as your...
