Correct, that's on the map display. You can put both the PFD and MAP display on a single screen though, sharing space.

In my experience it can only be captured from below the glideslope.

I have the exact same setup in my 9A, 430W and HDX, and it flies both the procedure turn inbound and the missed holds just fine. You've got something amiss in your buttonology.

There are numerous tales of charging system problems with the RV12, I would not be too quick to assume the problem is in the Dynon hardware. You should visit the vans builders forum at vansairforce.com and search the RV12 threads there for electrical issues.

Cirrus has had the autoland feature for years, before Garmin released it. Just pull the red handle. You cannot let technology do everything.

You can enter the setup menu and change them there - but Dynon has not implemented any sort of warning or alert to pop up when the times are reached, so for now it's kinda pointless to even have it.

The autopilot disconnect switch gets grounded to the aircraft ground to activate (thus disconnecting the autopilot). If you have a wire for one of the AP disconnect lines rubbing somewhere against the frame and occasionally shorting to ground, it would cause the symptoms you are seeing.

Correct. It's "diagnostic" for determining whats causing an equipment problem, not for normal operations by the user.

Can we have an alert or message on bootup to advise when one of the maintenance timers has expired, either on time or hours as selected? This has been discussed before, and we never really got an answer. Having a maintenance log is a good thing - but having a maintenance log with user-settable...

What type of aircraft is this on? Some aircraft manufacturers lock out parts of the Skyview software to prevent user changes or software updates with "non-approved" changes, and only the manufacturer can access those areas through a password. It sounds like you may be experiencing this.

I got a note from Dynon Support telling me that per the logs I sent, it appears the data is reaching the Skyview system and something is occurring within the Skyview hardware. They will prepare a new software version with extended logging capability for me to fly and try to pinpoint the problem...

All those points would be indicative of a problem with the 430W, which has never shown a fault. I've never lost satellite lock, never had a RAIM warning, never had it give a hint of trouble in the just-over-500 hours I've had in the panel. I have no evidence to indicate the problem is within the...

This is an RV9A, I normally cruise in the 14k-17k altitudes and average 22 nautical miles per gallon there, with a 1500nm range. Notice in the bottom right of the picture the "runtime" shows current flight time at 2 hours 24 minutes, and the range to empty exceeds 1000 miles up there with the...

At that point in time, I was talking to Salt Lake Center on 125.575 through my 430W. What is your theory? The dropouts are not associated with transmitting from the unit, the vast majority of them occur during cruise without transmissions.

Keep in mind that without the 2020 antenna, if you lose your 430W you also lose you ADSB-out and have to stay clear of the airspace where ADSB is required. The incremental cost of the antenna is small for the backup it provides.

They have been occurring with regularity to a large number of Skyview users, myself included. Today flying home from the Reno Air Races I had a number of minor dropouts and one that lasted long enough that the autopilot kicked off GPSS mode to track mode. Here's a screenshot of one of the...

You get them with a data subscription from Seattle Avionics - either VFR or IFR. You can get taxi diagrams, VFR sectionals, Approach plates, and IFR Hi and LO charts, installed on a USB stick that plugs into the screen and accessible from there.

So his wife/girlfriend/co-pilot doesn't know where he's been? :cool:

KSMP is not an airport. It doesn't exist. There is an automated weather reporting station, but no airport. I'm not sure where the identifier "KSMP" came from but it's not valid.

Correct, KSMP is not a valid airport and will not be displayed. There is a transmitting ASOS for Stampede Pass weather though, on 135.275. That can be found on the sectional chart. You can also contact Stampede Radio on 122.4.
