    Pitch problem autopilot

    After doing the latest update for the obstacle and nav database everything looked normal intil I tried to engage the autopilot. I did forget to reboot the displays after doing the download. The pitch would not capture the VS or would altitude hold. It would not. allow the vnav function to work...

    Dynon Transponders and ADS-B in Canada

    ADSB altitude read out on flight aware vs other planes in same area

    I have noticed that my Altitde readout is consistently 2 hundred low on the ADSB tracks on FlightAware Verses what I am flying with a current altimeter setting. transponder and altimeter checks are current for IFR. As well as the ADSB Been to two different shops over the last 4 years for those...

    VNAV

    I think you are correct about the plane descending to the runway. I think it ignores the altitude preset even if you would make that the same as minimums

    Dynon Nav Data Update

    I have noticed if you have a lot of DUC files on the thumb drive it sometime screws up the download to the Dynon’s. I go to file manager and delete all the previous DUC files then download the current and have not had another issue.

    Differences between HDX and Classic worth the cost?

    I fly with the classic Skyview have flow with other SkyView classics also and on an approach the flight director is always hunting more than the actual aircraft turbulence. Is there a way to dampen the flight director so it is a more accurate representation of what is happening during an LPV...

    VNAV

    If you have min set in the window for the Vnav "MDA" the plane should not violate that MDA with the autopilot on. And once coupled on the Vnav portion of the approach you should be able to set your Miss approach altitude back into the Altitude window so when you tell it to miss and re-engage...

    VNAV

    That is a shame all it has to do is recognize the decent limits on the plates no matter what you have set in to the altitude window. guess I had better start saving my money for two HDX

    VNAV

    Why can we not engage the VNAV on a segment leg of a GPS approach. It will not engage until on the final approach. Example the NOPT transition leg is 4400 from the IAF to the FAP your at 8000 decending why when established on an inbound leg of the approach can you not engage the VNAV so the...
