The likly source of the partial blockage is condensation, combined with my aircraft being a tail wheel. I can do nothing about the atmospheric water vapour or its tendency to condense on/in metal surfaces/structures. The tail down stance of the airframe, means that the pitot system is tilted...

Good news at last! Today, I called Dynon Australia for the umpteen time (the receptionist recognises my voice immediately). The Boss had gone to Oshkosh, so I talked with one of the LAME's - We reviewed my 6+ months problem & all Dynon & I hade tried, to effect a fix - He then relayed a recent...

You sound like a priest - ignore what doesn't suit your perception of reality, repeat the same statements ad nauseam, in the hope someone might accept your faith. "Collective wisdom...." . as you are the main respondent, this smacks of delusions of grandeur . "WE can't tell you any more than...

I cant make up my mind - Do you actually want to help people simply for the altruistic satisfaction and unfortunately don't really have the knowledge to follow through, covering your ignorance by being unpleasant? OR One of those nasty people, who hang out a bait of minimal information...

No offence but you guys are paranoid or something - If anybody's "trolling" it you two. Swatson999 - You talk big & offensively - deliver nothing - get a life! Jakej; I have NOT posted your PM to me - where do you see it? So far you have discussed nothing - I would never pay/ charge for...

Dynon have been very quick to respond to this problem. They have supplied about 4 replacement ADAHRS modules - not counting a loaner ADAHRS module, a loner SV unit, test lead to bypass installed (factory) cable and much phone/email time, with instructions on what to test/do. Guessing at what...

You may have noted that my Earth X 900 battery went dead during my latest attempts to get the system up & running. The battery is being recharged - weather permitting I will find out tomorrow if it has negatively impacted on getting the system to work properly.

Hi - Thank you for your generous advice/interest. My email is scangriffin@bigpond.com.au

What do you know of Dynon's instructions to me ? - it would seem you have insights into my problem that Dynon lack. The only other electrical system failure I have had (about 160 hrs) was with the Ducati voltage regulator. The the VR has been replaced. Both failure & replacement was...

Loaner SV installed - same ADAHRS Fail result. Swopped installed cable, for supplied Test Cable. No change. Now "Forced Load" only gets the system to run normally for up to about 15 minutes, before Failing again. Have been trying to get the system up and running for so long, Earth X 900...

Saga continues. AHAHRS continues to fail, always on ground, at first pre start activity of the day. About 3- 6Hrs (Hobs) between failures. I now do a "Forced Load", followed by shutting the whole system down for a few minutes. When I turn back on, ADAHRS comes back and functions as normal. A...

Update; Tried every suggestion, so far no cause, no remedy. Sent Diagnostic File to Dynon, three weeks ago - no response. So much for that! To end on a good note - so far the ADAHRS problem has not recurred. 😈

I guess a drop of loctite may alleviate this concern . I like the look of the SMPW-CC connectors. They look like they can be screwed down/together, through the circular hole. If so this would add considerably to their security. 😈

"That's NOT them ......." Hi Jake, Did I really have to say "for illustration purposes only"? 😈

You have covered the first requirement - proper crimping tool. What of the second - quality connecters? Good quality connectors will have a tight fit, when pressing together and require some effort to disconnect. Repeated connect/disconnect and poor quality connectors, will tend to be looser ...
