    Lean Of Peak -O-Meter

    Most carbs will get LOP.....you may not be describing reality accurately, even though you think you are. Hard to help with little to no info. But often a bit of carby heat helps too.

    Lean Of Peak -O-Meter

    Well, in 1800 hours of operating ours it has been reasonably reliable, but I will let you in on the secret with the Lycoming engines. The anomaly you observe is not unusual, and it is solved by installing an upper deck system and turbo injectors from GAMI or from Airflow Performance, and picking...

    Lean Of Peak -O-Meter

    I can help you here.....This is my area of speciality of sorts. Do a LEAN find test first, rich to lean, and determine the order in which they peak, for example, 6-2-1-3-5-4, and write that down. Go back rich again, and turn off the LEAN function, just use raw data. Lean slowly, watching for...

    Does not show battery charge current

    I have had a EMS module fail on one of the shunt inputs.....no idea why, I just bought a new EMS module. Extremely rare but it could happen.

    Is there a typo in GPS chapter of SV Installation Guide?

    The world as we know it would stop instantly if we all adopted TX-TX wiring :-) Dans explanation is as simple and as good as it gets!

    Is a Terrain Avoidance Warning Desirable?

    The obstacle database provided here in Australia by AvPlan, is really very good.....all these damned towers and wind turbines are well depicted.

    AP Panel wiring issues/question

    It is most likely through the SV Network, however you do not want disturbances on the network caused by using the same ground. Trust me that is bad karma.

    AP Panel wiring issues/question

    That is the ground for the trim system and really should be used. The AP panel has trim runaway protection built is so unless you really want to switch it, just wire it to ground. If you want to switch the power to the trim system, switch the power supply on Pin 9.

    is there a best way to reboot HDX while flying?

    There are Kingston units I believe. More than 16GB ...WOW, that is a lot of charting. Of course the US charts will be way more than ours down here in terms of volumes of aerodrome plates, so that may be the need for bigger sticks.

    Is a Terrain Avoidance Warning Desirable?

    In addition to what is already there? Its pretty darned impressive as it is.

    is there a best way to reboot HDX while flying?

    And to add....turning the master off with a backup battery may not achieve the reset, so if you had a locked up screen, 1,2,5, are your friends. Also be aware the mini san disk usb keys can cause problems. Reboots while running and strange things. Avoid these and use the ones that come in the box.

    Lean find mode

    Ahhh a Rotax 912 is a ROP machine.....You cant change that. As for research.....GAMI is a good reference. I am one of 5 APS teachers, GAMI's George Bayly being one of us. Mike Busch is a student of APS, he did the class 3 times. Not because he is dumb, just he wanted to be a student of the...

    is there a best way to reboot HDX while flying?

    1+2+5 gets you out of a locked up situation. Button 1 ON/OFF does the same except that if you need to reboot this might not work. Maybe Dynon can comment. My experience, which is extensive is "in flight" reboots have not been needed.....or not that I recall. I have maybe collectively 5000...

    Lean find mode

    Peak is not that even, and even going slowly though the peak to 100 ROP is not that dangerous either. People get too scared over more OWT's. The reason you should pull through quickly is the cylinders do not get a chance to heat up. You get a better result finding true peak EGT this way. It is...

    There ya go! I think you are well on the way to solving the problem.

    GPS source failure

    It could be the serial coms gets screwed up, and a restart sorts it out. I am only guessing.

    GPS source failure

    Besides the GPS not seeing any sky when upside down, I could only guess the internals of the GPS puck have some damage that internal connections make/break under higher G loads. Otherwise it is connectors you need to look at. Be careful with those G loads too. 6G @ 1375lbs is the max limit on a...

    AP panel issues continue!

    Email Don Jones at support@dynonavionics.com because I too have seen an episode of this before but it has gone away. This is a wild guess, but do you have an iPad (with SIM card) or phone mounted anywhere on or near the panel? I do wonder if there is at times a communication error induced from...

    Network detect fails to detect one servo

    I cant remember now, but in the downloadable data logs there is a fault logged, and even if it is one that comes and goes it will be logged. I say this because I cant recall if this applied to the D100 series or just the SV. But if it does, go take a look.

    A few issues with my Skyview HDX system.

    Absolutely :-) And just for the record, as Ronald Reagon once said "Trust but Verify". So hence the long list, because you may fix the gross error and then say, yep! I fixed it, but all the other small errors exist. Question for Jaba-who.......where is the ADAHRS mounted? Sometime compass...
