Original build: Vans RV-9A. Second build: Harmon Rocket. Current build, with 5 hrs flight time: Rans S-21. All Dynon based…. D10A….SkyView…SkyView HDX. The panel photo shows a set of discrete flight instrument that interwork with the SkyView system, including an OnSpeed energy display and a...

I purchased a 12V, 30A power supply and adjusted it to 14V. I connected a 7A breaker to the output to make a GPU. I charge the SkyView battery by plugging into my 12V 'cigar lighter’ port and pulling all of breakers except the SkyView and 12V port power. To simplify, I also fabricated a...

I posted this for the benefit of others... I know you are one of the long time Dynon experts and I have nothing to teach you! :{)

PS Engineering makes the Dynon intercom, Trig makes Dynon radios and transponders, and I make the MakerPlane audio mixers… so a brand does not always signify the actual manufacturer. Not a criticism or endorsement, just an observation.

Here is a simple bypass circuit that plugs into the intercom harness when it is removed. The rightmost image is the actual wiring. If you really want to go to the extreme, it’s also possible to incorporate the SkyView audio alerts into the design. I could tell you how, but it involves...

I have had multiple conversations over the years with Dynon reps on this very topic. They inferred that Trig, who makes their existing transponder brick, would have a solution. I couldn't wait, so I met with uAvionix and helped convince them to develop the tailBeaconX, then I participated in...

The LEO satellites will pick up Mode-S/ES transponders with a conventional bottom mounted antenna, but the best reception will be when the satellites are close to the horizon, rather than overhead. To ensure full coverage, either a diversity transponder with top and bottom antennas, or a dipole...

I am the designer of the AXIS-25A. Dynon's harness does not terminate on a 37 pin connector unless you add one. In the case of the AXIS-25A, all of the required bussed interconnect between two SkyViews are handled with 25 pin connectors. This provides all of the required fail-safe interconnect...

Or you can buy the original here: https://store.makerplane.org/axis-25a-avionics-wiring-hub/ Developed in 2010.

I developed a multi-function EFIS that takes SkyView data over WiFi or serial, and displays all of the common flight and engine instruments. For $300, MakerPlane sells the huVVer-AVI. See more at www.huVVer.tech . Daylight readable screen, lightweight, available in 2 or 3 inch hole versions.

I have spent well over $250,000 developing avionics devices that work with Dynon’s EFIS systems, not including the aircraft I built as 'test mules' for flight testing And the hangars to contain them. Much of my work has been published as open source, but there are certain things that I keep as...

This problem still exists in the EMS data stream documentation. Same garbled sentence and wrong data length (Should be 221 bytes)

I use threaded rod and clevis parts from the R/C world to connect to Ray-Allen position sensors. Here,s an example of a flaps position sensor linkage.

Choose elevator for pitch trim, or aileron for roll trim.
