    Flight Plan Question

    I have a manual RNAV approach setup for my airport, it starts 10 miles out, when I load it up it does exactly what you mention, from the first point on the FPL to the next leg. I usually TRK or Direct to that (first) point than "activate the leg", which is second on line (so from first point to...

    Skyview 7.0 screenshot issue

    Jdubner; I tried three different USB sticks. One always worked before, and actually was the same one I used to download datalogs after the flight and also the diagnostic files. I used the stick on my computer to analyze the data with Savvyanalysis from the last flight, data was solid. The stick...

    SkyView 7 now available!

    I meant specifically the Synvis "resolution" (smoothness of images) not the overall screen resolution. You are right on, always thought the screen layout and overall resolution was better than others, but with the synvis improvement (going out further) is a much improved

    SkyView 7 now available!

    update on screen.- Not an issue afterall I went out and discovered that it was like this before engine start (aka- battery power) its fine when I have the power on with full brightness. I think the improved resolution just made it stand out a little more than before. Kudos to a great update to...

    7.0 Buttonology Issue

    "I think if you give the feature some time, it will really grow on you." I went out and trained on this today. I spent 30 minutes and it has already grown on me. I find that moving the cursor and being able to get the INFO for an airport is fantastic, being able to "tune com" and add it as a...

    Skyview 7.0 screenshot issue

    Used three different sticks. Worked on battery power 1 time, did not work when powered on and/nor other display is powered on any of the three sticks (rebooted each time). All seems to work normally on PFD, just the banner reamins as if hung. When it did work (1 x) it sensed no stick was plugged...

    SkyView 7 now available!

    Improved Synthetic Vision SynVis in SkyView now draws the image all the way to the horizion, with no sharp cut off at a fixed distance. Shorelines and water are also smoothed and look much nicer. Although the color and appearance of synvis is very nice, I noticed that my screen flickers (looks...

    Skyview 7.0 screenshot issue

    I tried two different USB sticks. In both cases (One a Kingston the other the Dynon USB, that always worked with 6.2) I get the "screenshot in progress" that will not go away. On the ground I was able to get it to work, took longer to work. Also anothe datapoint- I used to get a error when no...

    7.0 Buttonology Issue

    I think jchang and GalinHdz have it right, the INFO should be an extra push IF needed, now its a few extras to remove it. I wont use, unfortunately, its great data but a hassle to do anything with it there when flying. Please modify it to use the extra press for ON and another press off in the...

    display .pdf files

    I can see a great benefit to viewing .pdf files on the display. like the pilot manual that reminds me the steps to using the autopilot. I have been looking down on a ipad to figure out the "expert" autopilot buttons, but having it on the screen as I am "training" would certainly help.

    Although I have not installed and flown with 7.0, looks like far more than I was expecting. The ATC feature is excellent!, always wanted an improved Synvis and you delivered, D-> to get you back on course from a deviation? outstanding.. finally an upgrade with features I have asked for and can...

    Which Documentation?

    The manual goes with the version of firmware. if you install 7.0, coming out this month, you'll want the manual for 7.0. If you are running 5.0, you'll want that manual until you upgrade, etc..

    Crazy EGT Digits when using PTT on RV-12

    I had the same issues. Did everything. Do you have the EMS -A version? I had my EMS upgraded to the -A and the EGTs are none existent to rarely seeing the EGTs jump with PTT.

    Feature Requests

    Jchang is definitely on to a great feature I would benefit from outside of my known areas. I can see a reason to use this as well. When I need to make a quick decision and divert it would benefit me to see the name of a NRST so I can call that CTAF and use the correct name of the airport...

    Starting up Skyview

    I rely on the EMS info (specifically oil pressure) for engine start. What you need is a backup battery attached to the screen. You are right.. there is not enough power to keep it running. You should just keep it off than turned on versus having it reboot at engine start. At least until you get...

    Feature Requests

    I expect #1 will be resolved in 7.0 release, per the announcement " When an item or airspace is selected with the map pointer, it is both highlighted on-screen and accompanied by a useful data block that shows relevant information about the feature - all without any additional button pushing."...

    EGT probe crimp failed again

    you'll need #22 for both. I recall the wires from the Probe for sure and maybe the EMS side, but in the end #22 worked for both sides, just splice enough off to get a 3 or so foldovers to assure there is a good amount of wire to grab onto when you crimp it.

    EGT probe crimp failed again

    keep in the mind the wires are very small, like 24, I used the 22 (red) and the wires came right out after I crimped it. I needed to fold it over 2-3 times than I used a Radio Shack connector and heat shrinked. It has actually held up without further issues.

    A/P Level Function

    Assuming the compass is calibrated try increasing the ROLL SENSITIVITY, see if that helps.

    Tracon Freqs on Map

    Nice progress and great info I never realized I could use. I actually want the label for the freqs, on your screen there are the freqs but no label to identify it, In my example instead of ATIS and TWR I would like to see "LAX 125.50 APP" or "LAX 135.400 CTR", etc. Problem with CTR, is unless...
