    North up orientation of the moving map

    The ability to orient the moving map "North up" was listed in a table of future functionality that used to be found on the Dynon website. I no longer see any mention of this capability. Is it still on the drawing board for a future release?

    Nav data colors

    On the 3.0 map with Jeppesen nav data, controlled airspace is indicated with magenta colored lines. So is the the track line to a "direct to" target. In the next version, could you change the color of the track line to make it stand out from the control areas?

    Screen snapshot with 3.0

    After installing 3.0 the 2+7 key sequence for screen snapshot doesn't seem to work. After pushing the keys, the normal message "screen capture in progress" is displayed for a few seconds followed by an error message saying something to the effect that the memory is full. I'm using a 4 GB empty...

    Font size

    I was under the impression that the font size used for the GPS data to the left of the HSI was to be increased in version 3.0. Alas, this doesn´t seem to be the case and I am still struggling to read the numbers. Any chance you could up the font size in the next release?

    Terrain map topographical features

    Compared to my Garmin aera, the SkyView terrain map lacks details such as place names, roads, railways and rivers and the ability to user select the level of detail to be displayed. Any plans to add such features to the terrain map in the future, or alternatively, would it be possible to...

    Transfer flight plans from Jeppesen FliteStar

    When multi-leg flight planning becomes available in a future SkyView release, will it be possible to plan flights on a PC using for instance Jeppesen FliteStar and transfer the flight plan to SkyView using a USB memory stick?

    AP servo firmware mismatch

    After I upgraded my two 10' screens to 2.6 today, the autopilot stopped working. When I check Network Status, the SV32 labels are marked red with the text "Firmware mismatch". What am I doing wrong? Do the servos need to be powered while I upgrade the screens in order for them be recognized by...

    Screen fails to start up

    During the last couple of flights I have had problems getting one of the 10' SkyView screens to start up. The screen is filled with a vertical pattern of narrow colored stripes and does not proceed from there. After a few rounds of 1+2+5 sequences the screen initializes and comes alive. I...

    CWS Hold Heading & Altitude

    In the Autopilot setup menu, CWS can be set to "Hold Heading / Altitude". When holding the disengage button for more than 2 seconds, the autopilot is then supposed to hold the current heading and altitude when the button is released. I tested this today and it appears that this only is the case...

    G-meter

    When will G-meter functionality be available? I see this is listed in the "future" column in the features list. It seems to me that a G-meter shouldn't be that complex to implement.

    Autopilot Nav-mode

    How is the autopilot supposed to behave when following a flight plan. I have a Garmin Aera 500 connected to my SkyView 10'. Yesterday I was flying in nav-mode with an active flight plan with several sequential waypoints. The autopilot tracked beautifully, but when we came to the next waypoint...

    Wiring harness

    The wiring harness has two inputs for power to the SkyView. On the DB37 connector there's pin 1 and 20 for positive and pin 21 and 22 for ground. My two questions: 1) Are the two sets electrically connected so that if only one set is used for power input I could use the other to for instance...

    Pitch axis trim indicator

    I'm flying straight and level with the elevator trimmed without any forward or backward pressure on the stick. When I turn on the autopilot pitch axis (altitude hold) the trim indicator wants me to trim down. Even when I trim down as far as the trim will go it will sometimes indicate a yellow...

    Heading discrepancy between PFD and map

    On a recent flight, I noticed that the heading indicated on the Compass Rose / Directional Gyro on the PFD screen and the one on the Moving Map screen were quite different, in fact up to 17 degrees. At certain headings the PFD showed a lower heading figure than the map and at other headings the...

    User Waypoints outside US

    Seems User Waypoints in SkyView 2.5 is a feature of the navigation mapping software. If this is so, I am correct in assuming that this feature is not currently available outside the US?

    Jumpy RPM-indication

    I have two 10' SkyViews and on today's flight I noticed that the RPM-indication on the right screen was jumping vigorously. Wwere the left screen was indicating a constant 4500 RPM the right needle was alternating between 4000 and 4800 and anything between. Almost like there was a bad contact on...

    Placement of ADAHRS module

    The manufacturer of my newly delivered aircraft has installed the backup battery on top of the ADAHRS-200 module behind one of the 10' SkyView screens. The installation guide recommends that "The location should be magnetically benign". It seems to me that locating the ADAHRS module in close...

    EMS layout program

    Any plans to develop a PC-based program for preparing screen layouts for the EMS pages? Seems to me it would be easier to sit at home and design the screen layouts and later upload to the SkyView panels.

    AP not flying level

    While making my first flight test of the SkyView autopilot, it would keep heading and altitude, However, it was flying with a constant bank angle of 10-15 degrees to the right and consequently flying uncoordinated. Is there something I might have been with the settings parameters?

    Map disappears at high range

    I have two SV1000 connected to one ADAHRS. There's seems to be an anomaly with the map. The map works fine on the right screen, but when I increase the range to higher than 30 NM on the left screen, the map disappears on this screen. The right screen remains the same. Has anyone else had this...
