    AP Pitch/Roll servos - NO Movement during TEST

    I could not find a specific mention of the "ADAHRS must be installed to work the A/P". Maybe it was assumed as a network the ADAHRS must be installed to work with the primary operating system for all modules and servos? I did find this, "Note that if an ADAHRS, EMS, or Servos are not present...

    261 Transponder vs. Garmin 327

    "Well, first, what does your shop say? Since you put a new transponder in, you need a new transponder certification (assuming you are in the USA at least), and one of the tests is for output power." I hear more about problems with transponders lately. Why? because people are violating the...

    SV with D10a backup monitoring EMS

    I'm installing a SV with EMS and A/P. Does or is there a way to monitor SV ems on the D10a in normal SV operation?   ::) Normal inflight operation would be SV w/nav and the D10a monitoring the ems. Is so, any special requirements?? Thanks :)

    Switch to Alt Static causes attitude changes

    To start with you were at the wrong altitude. As required by 14 CFR Section 91.159(a), the appropriate VFR altitudes for aircraft (not in a holding pattern of 2[ch8201]minutes or less, or turning) operating more than 3,000[ch8201]feet above the surface to and including 18,000 feet MSL...

    Removing airports from data base

    Ever heard of "any port in a storm"?  I have a problem like an engine quit, I would like to know of ANY airport around me.  If it's a little short, I'm in. Cuz with no prop turning it'll stop faster.  Just a thought.

    AP servo Conniction diagram

    Using the below Servo Diagram I'm curious about how servo #1 and servo #2 knows which one is being directed to move?  If servo #1 is pitch and it gets a command to move how does servo #2 know not to move?? The wires are match connected to both servos. I've done wiring using diagrams and...

    Pitot in RV6A

    Silly txp question
