No the problem has not been fixed. I am using the Skyview SV 472 receiver. My neighbor has an all Garmin system and has the same problem. It is definitely a Foreflight issue. I tried two different generation tablets and even flew with neighbor and confirmed problem is present when Garmin is...

If the PMag / prop is positioned right at 0 deg it is possible that one or both IGN’s are toggling because it is positioned so close to the decision to send out the tach pulse. So, as Michael said above just move the prop a couple degrees and it will stop. i have seen this a couple time...

I have gotten the same message before but never lost glide slope indications. I just used the higher minimums. This was about 6 months ago. i suspect this it due to RAIM level is not good enough to support the glide slope. the approach I was on was RNAV 13 into KTYR in Texas. It has a LPV...

Regarding to OLED com radio display. My experience with OLED in aircraft have been poor life spans. I have had 2 devices with OLED in my Glasair. Both have had to have the displays changed in about 5 years, or less. One display I had it converted back to mono LCD after the second replacement...

I can tell my experiences as I was an original classic Skyview that recently upgraded to the HDX. My experience was the classic was more robust regarding WiFi connectivity. I rarely, had a WiFi disconnect with a IFD 540 and an IPAD with Foreflight connected. I only had numerous WiFi...

if you have two iPads connected you will occasionally see a loss of WiFi on one or both iPads. It auto recovers. This has improved but still happens on occasion. I routinely have my IFD 540 and a single iPad running Foreflight with no problems. Once a second iPad is connected it will loose...

Yes you can send a flight plan to Skyview. But recent updates to Foreflight will default to the IFD, if installed and on same network. I am sure you can force it to Skyview by settings. I only use the IFD for flight plans so only sent to Skyview by accident. kurt

Foreflight will automatically prompt you if you want to upload flight plan to the IFD if you are at an airport and connected. If you choose to upload it will go into the IFD flight plan list. Not the active plan. Make sure you have IFD at version 10.3.1. Kurt

Yes. Set your IFD as a remote to the Skyview network. See IFD instructions on connecting as remote device to Stratus. Follow this except substitute Skyview for Stratus. Once you connect you will get messages on IFD to authorize the IP address trying to connect. Connect your IPad to Skyview...

The Avidyne can connect to the Skyview network as a remote device. Foreflight IPad also connects as a remote device to Skyview. Foreflight will now automatically detect the IFD on the Skyview network and prompt you if you want to transfer the flight plan after you connect. No need to switch...

The Seattle avionics databases can be uploaded into the Skyview displays via Slingshot feature. Search the Seattle Avionics web site for details. I think you need to be a fly-q subscriber.

Do you have DYNON battery backups on displays? Kurt

I recently submitted a bug report to ForeFlight because it does not update the METARS, Lightning or NOTAMs once I am in flight. Starts off ok but once i get a couple hundred miles away from starting point i notice METARS are unavailable. All these products are displayed perfectly on the...

Flew today with 2 tablets running Foreflight. Skyview version 16.6.0 running on 4th gen HDX. Had several WIFI lost communication notices on Foreflight. so, problem is still out there when you have two iPads connected. Alarm was a nuisance, no impact to operation. Just tap the pop up to...

Thanks for making this. BTW, it will not save if using Firefox? Clicking "Save Checklist" does nothing. Works good with MS Edge. Kurt

I don’t know if this is your problem but I experienced the same issue when I swapped in a PS Engineering audio panel when my Garmin audio panel was being serviced. The Skyview audio is pinned to a unswitched input. This worked great with the Garmin audio panel. But with the PS engineering the...

This is so skyview can set comm frequencies. This is optional and most likely not wired. Kurt

Check your ARINC settings in Skyview and on the IFD. See section 12-5 in the install manual. Also see "Third-Party Device Connection and Configuration - Reference Guide, Rev B" in the download section. It has all the settings required. Page 14 has the IFD settings. ALLOW AUTO SWITCH: YES...

Today I had on two occasions Foreflight reported “Skyview has disconnected “. I had two tablets connected to my single screen HDX system. The error self cleared in a few seconds. So, I think 16.5.2 still not 100%, at least if you have two tablets running Foreflight. kurt

I have the HDX 10 inch. I recently upgraded from the classic touch to HDX. I had issues with the WiFi on the classic, but they got much worse when I upgraded to HDX. Especially when you have 2 tablets connected to Skyview. But version 16.5.2 fixed all the issues I had with the HDX.
