All, Just west of X26 is the Marain MOA. It is not showing in the most recent Airmate Nav update. I loaded the Dynon Nav update and it is in this database. I did not check other MOAs. Bad juju if one blows thru an active MOA. I advised Airmate and asked if we are missing any other...

Hi, Can anyone point me towards a comparison - pro / con of Skyview vs AFS screens? I just started a new build and am open to new ideas. I have been flying with Dynon for a while but am intrigued by what I see of AFS. Thanks

Hi, I am tracking down leaks in the static system prior to ifr cert. I note that when I apply a slight suction to get the system to read 1000 feet altitude, I also see 150 knot airspeed. Since static and pitot are not connected to each other, this is confusing. Is this normal? Thanks

Hi, To resolve an adhrs cross compare issue, per my conversation with Dynon support, I downloaded the User_Config file from my Skyview system and edited two lines to new values using a text editor. The changes are: adahrs_xchk_tc_thres=0.5 change to 2.0, adahrs_xchk_tr_thres=0.5 change to...

Dynon, After the upgrade, the left HDX displays this warning but the right HDX does not. I do have the AP panel and it is the sole trim controller. I also looked thru the v16 docs and do not see this warning message. Where shall I start to resolve this? Thanks, Dennis

Hi, Not strictly a Dynon Issue. I have a Dynon quick panel with the IFD540 installed and wonder if others have encountered this. I have searched high and low for release notes for the IFD540 software upgrades. I asked this question on the avidyne forums over at Avidyne.com but got crickets...

Hi, I have just started test flying a brand spanking RV14 with a Skyview AFS quick panel. I did due diligence with the wiring, connections, and ground calibrations for the servos. All seems well. However, starting on the in flight fine tuning guide for the roll axis, I set the system to...

I reviewed the data log and did not see indicated altitude.  Is it available and I missed a configuration option? Thanks Dennis

Hey guys, I am noticing an increasing number of instrumentation oddities.  A couple of things: - a while back, I saw that my CHTs were reading low - seem normal in climb, up to 350F but 270F in cruise, 250F in long descents even with power on.  This has been a constant for about 2 or 3 years...

Hi all, For the last 4 years, Skyview will give me the 30 second warning message once I turn off the master.  Yesterday, out of the blue, I get a message that the Ships Power has been lost when turning off the master. I then have to manually power each screen down. The only change I have made...

I have looked high and low (and searched) but could not find a definitive list of key button combo's.  Are there any others than those listed below - I am missing screen capture.  Reboot    1  2  5 Screen capture Config 7  8 Power 1 Thanks, Dennis

I recently received my Touch upgrade and I think the touch functions are very helpful!  I read in the users doc that there is a direct button on the map page but I have not seen this button.  I have cycled between sources for the GPS input (G430 and SkyView) and display is consistent. Is there...

This calibration is really nice but revealed that I have something wonky with one of my ADHRS'.  I have occasionally gotten a compare error and after picking the more believable ADHRS, it would not appear again that flight.  My wife has been with me for most issues and it never seemed to...

Flying an RV6, I have set roll sensitivity rather low for enroute and find that when slowing for an approach, it needs to be adjusted to a higher value. Has any consideration been given to making an enroute and a approach configuration sensitivity settings easily available via a smart key? Thanks

I have read that strong magnetic sources (such as battery or servos) should not be near ADAHRS' but have not heard much about ferrics and proximity. I have an RV6 that I placed the ADAHRS' in the tail about 1.5 feet behind the pitch servo install area and noticed that the steel cable for...
