Chris, I suggest you go right away to Dynon and tell them the grave danger they are creating and to stop selling avionics for non-certified aircraft. Then call Okalhoma City and tell the FAA that they should immediately stop licensing experimental aircraft as the danger is too great. Go...

sorry Chris but you're part of the problem. I understand that that won't penetrate but the guy didn't understand and you just repeated your answer like it was his problem that you weren't going to go any further. I tried to help but he was already triggered by his exchange with you...

I'd make the friendly argue that the incremental increase in reliability is too negligible to actually count for anything making CB's as reliable as fuses without the need to have extra fuses stored on-board at all times. @Ampzapper, the common solution is to use a terminal end that can hold...

Social media isn't for everyone.

part of helping someone is trying to understand what it is that they aren't understanding and then pinpointing your answer to help fill that gap. he expressed that your answer wasn't clear and you repeated it and then dug in without any willingness to offer more basic info. he wasn't right to...

oooh, still trying to grind the axe. the strategy for this type of situation is to not respond after the thread has stopped being productive. problematic people will irk others and you have to be big enough to just scroll on by. the back and forth is not productive and it kills the vibe at...

you're saying for the fuel flow number to the engine to be accurate at all RPM settings, the individual k-values have to be accurate instead of fixed for the return and tweaked for the supply. @SkippyDiesel are you the original builder of your plane?

I'm thinking about this some more, you might be able to set the return K-value to the initial 68,000 value and then just tweak the supply side k value using the standard method with the result being the correct fuel flow being calculated by the EMS. The EMS-220 is measuring the difference...

I usually tell people I'll pay the regular way and cover the paypal fees. If they're legit they'll say thank you and continue with the sale. If not, they'll ghost me or make an excuse why they need friends and family.

the K factors don't affect each other, the two cubes are acting independent of each other and the EMS-220 is subtracting return fuel from supply fuel to display the fuel flow being used by the engine. if one is accurate but the other is not, the EMS will show an inaccurate instantaneous engine...

hey guys, let's try to keep it civil and get Skippy's problem worked out. @chriscalandro I understand how to calculate the K factor and how to adjust it based on calculated fuel flow vs actual fuel used but what instructions are you referring to for the return fuel flow calibration...

are the boxes pulling the 5v and putting it to ground to turn the lights on or are they putting 5v to the lights with the lights wired to ground from there? my EI boxes ground the light circuit so the LED's are powered from a CB. I didn't know monitor lights could be displayed on the Skyview...

nevermind, I think I answered my own question

Good on you for figuring this stuff out!

And to you!

that pretty much sums it up, continuity between correct pins, not shorted to ground and not shorted to another pin. I never really thought about it that way but it makes sense! @wilkersk , please let us know what you found when you've got it fixed. I actually pulled the VP-X from the plane...

there was a user here with the email Bust57 that was accused of taking money for used avionics and not shipping the items. Godman57 has similar email and username details and his email address scores multiple hits on stopforumspam.com with IP addresses in Germany, Greece, and the US. Use...

I'm not an avionics tech but tripping circuit breakers would motivate me to check the wire runs again, even if it's the fourth or fifth time. Even if the wire and pin placements are correct, maybe you have stray wires inside the connectors causing short circuits? Maybe a pin backed out and...

this is a sticky situation for a forum host like Dynon, you get people that might try to fix things themselves using information they got from someone else on your site. at my site where we're discussing certified aircraft, we help at first but when it's obvious people are in over their heads...

different thread, I quoted the manual then he dressed me down for not reading the manual. just because he thought he could get away with it, I suppose.
