BAC - Just a quick correction on Hiroo's post. The green and white tool is for high density pins. The standard pin extractor is red and white. As previously stated, the pins are extracted from the back side of the connector. I think the metal tipped extractors are best, as the plastic ones...

Dynon Support: The plane flew yesterday in some pretty bad weather and the ADS-B weather seemed to work OK. My buddy pilot saw a few traffic icons, but there wasn't much flying so he could not really compare any traffic inputs vs. flight following traffic reports.

George, I don't mean to be insensitive and am sorry for the loss of your friend, but your comment of "thousands of victims" is a bit misleading.  Statistically, there are about 10 -15 mid-air collisions in the US every year in general aviation (depending on database reviewed), which includes all...

Guys... I work in an industry where we test the crap out of product and we still see systemic issues down the road because we can't predict and/or test every scenario. It has only been a few months since we started seeing documented problems. Although I myself want a fix sooner rather than...

Dynon Support - Had placed my earlier comment in 1st person, but it was actually the owner of the plane manufacturer company that was flying my plane. Talked to him this morning and he did not remember seeing any purple overlay, however, he will go up later today and check again. There is...

Anyone having issues with ADS-B weather with the 472? My original 470 seemed to work well; however, installed the 472 and flew the aircraft on first 472 flight from NC to FL last Monday. Flew VFR, but the weather was pretty bad. Didn't see any traffic, but with the bad weather, was not too...

Regardless of where you get your power, ALWAYS add a breaker or fuse.

6adan, power would normally come from your main power buss, or avionics power buss if designed that way.  Always fuse or breaker.  Dynon says power draw is 0.1 A, so a 1 amp breaker is sufficient.  You normally wouldn't add a switch to an intercom. A general "power in" designation is almost...

Cruzer, if you are still confused, send me a PM note with your email and I will help you out off line.

Cruzer - First, and most important, the Dynon can be used with any radio source, so the pin labels are somewhat generic. The Dynon radio out, pin 10 goes to the Radio audio in pin 14 on the intercom. In my case, I use a Dynon radio going to a PM1000 intercom. So pin 10 on the Dynon goes to...

Hey Ray, ain't Amazon amazing! Not available thereseveral years ago. Had to buy on eBay or DMC. $28 shipping is silly so you're not really paying $14, but still half price compared to a new one direct from DMC. Thanks for the link!

Tommy, I did a real quick look at your request and think the following connections are correct, but double check. P2401 Dynon audio out/hi pin 10 to GMA Com 1 audio in/hi pin 9 Dynon audio out/lo pin 9 to GMA Com 1 audio in/lo pin 10 Dynon PPT pin 5 to GMA Com 1 MIC key out pin...

Steve, the worst time that happens to me is when my wife corrects me! :)

Cruzer, agree with Ray. Machined pins are better than dog-ear pins, IMHO, but require more expensive crimpers. Steinair sells a cheaper crimper version (P/N SAT-004), but it does not have the variable wire diameter settings that Daniels has. However, you can usually find the Daniels crimper on...

Just a quick point, connecting a pin to the battery cable will not necessarily be an issue. If in series, yes, bad idea, but in a parallel circuit, not normally an issue. Ohm's law states that the current in a circuit is inversely proportional to the circuit resistance. In the case of a...

Was told by Dynon at Oshkosh they hope it is a software update, but it may take a while to figure out. In the meantime, they have suspended sale of the 472 in case they need to make a hardware fix. I too hope it is a software fix as I have to pull my entire panel out to access the box. About...

JP - Probably stating the obvious here and you have reviewed the install manual a number of times, but recheck your WIFI SETUP in SYSTEM SETUP. Also make sure to use use the extensions Dynon sent with the dongles if you are not currently doing so. Dynon has suggested that on some installations...

From a GE thermocouple training manual comment: "Thus twisting, welding, soldering, crimping - they all work, until... until corrosion sets in between the connections. Thus, twisting is the least preferable over time because the metal is neither fused nor crushed together sufficiently to form...

Bill, as this is an experimental application, there are many non-aircraft related mass flow meter options you also might be interested in. There are at least a dozen or more different sensing methodologies used in liquid handling industries. Ones I have used in the past are electromagnetic...

Hey GalinHdz, I think you need another display in your cockpit!   ;D ;)
