True, the obstacle and aviation are never erased by the Dynon system, if you want to remove the old databases then you would have to delete them manually from the UBS drive, possibly before downloading the new databases onto the USB drive. And yes, that requires that you pick the latest database...

Which database are you referring to? The aviation and obstacle database? For these, when a new database is loaded from USB, it (the new release) simply overwrites the old databases, so there is no action required.

I have an SL-30 like radio connected to my Dynon as NAVCOM2, and both the TUNE COM and TUNE NAV buttons appear when appropriate and work in pushing the frequencies to the standby frequencies of NAVCOM2, so the mechanisms work in this configuration. I have a G-navigator in system too as NAVCOM1...

It is a single contact (push to make contact) switch grounding the control line to the servo's (with an additional 5k resistor over the switch to the Dynon system can detect a broken wire failure). Look in the installation manual and the users manual for the term disconnect or disconnect button...

A question: what's the reason/purpose of the double wiring in between the main bus and the circuit breaker?

Or even a better match "ALCOR CLAMP 3-1/4 EGT/TIT PROBE GROUNDED, .85 OHM, TYPE K":

Dynon expects Type K thermocouples for the Exhaust temperature sensors and that is what is generally used by all systems as these thermocouples provide the required range (–454 to 2,300F). So it is very likely that this will work. Looking in the Spruce catalog all listed EGT sensors are Type K...

Triggered by temperature and rpm controlled accordingly

There are USB 'sticks' that extend less than a quarter of an inch out of the panel, those are the drives I prevent, like for instance the ones shown here...

What was meant was flat as not protruding from the panel, you could call it short. The two url's point to USB sticks that extend a lot from the panel and might leave a nasty dent in the pilot if he/she ever got slammed against the panel

Fiberglass should not be any problem as it is non-conductive, but carbon fiber is a whole different issue, it is conductive and my create a certain level of shielding

The ethernet connection is only used to sync the obstacle and aviation databases between two Dynon displays, nothing else travels over this link. When the Dynon system reports a network system error it usually refers to the redundant Dynon network (8/9 wires and 9 pin D-connectors) that connects...

I agree, an electrical issue is much more likely for a common issue that happens to cause multiple ADAHRS units to fail in the same setup. Still strange that the new unit initially worked and then failed after just 4 hours. Either the person asking the question is very unlucky in getting two...

Are you describing a setup where you have static pressure, pitot pressure and AofA, meaning all three values measured by the ADAHRS mounted on a single "mast"? Meaning that you are not using the Dynon pitot and AofA probe? The standard Dynon setup is to have Pitot and AofA pressure mounted on a...

If I were to guess I would expect e few kohm resistance between the two wires, without the need to measure anything else but the resistance between the two wires on the small connector that goes into the ADAHRS. That also would mean that besides unplugging the small connector you wouldn't have...
