    Nick bonger replacement

    I have been fortunate enough to really push Robert to the limit these last few years. He gave me a tour of the facility and always was straight with me on getting the Skyview to work with the Vertical Power VP-200 and other developments. In each and every case he was passionate about feedback...

    RED CUBE fuel flow calibration number?

    There is a calculation for this in the latest installation manual page 7-56. I did one calibration and it is within .4 or less each time. It used to be within .2 when I actually inputted the fuel added versus just saying it "full" now- when it may actually be .1 lower on each side. In other...

    firmware updates for 2013

    Seeing the "whats next" discussion went back to Jan 2012,with 168 responses, starting a new thread for current and future status of firmware updates to avoid older requests that are already implemented. I realize there is a priority for the comm and ADS-B hardware releases, which of course would...

    what's next

    After flying 100+ hrs I agree this is a great feature I would like seen. I am currently estimating the distance and guessing how many miles I travel each minute than guess when I should start the descent only to have ATC stop me for a few miles than need to guess how many FPM I need to descend...

    AP tuning

    I have a RV-10, rather sensitive as well and it is at 10 with no issues. I ended up with 2.0 degrees and max 30 degree bank. I think your 45 degrees may be too much, plus do you really want it to bank so much when in that mode? my passengers think 30 degrees is too much. Try (testing purposes...

    Skyview powers up intermittently

    No the one with the battery works each and everytime. The other does seem to have an issue unless there is a alternator powering up the battery (aka will not work pre engine start bat 12.3v) but will after engine start 14.2v. Yes, I am sure it is 12.3v my vertical power tells me exactly how much...

    Real time "Go To"?

    chose NRST from Map. it will bring up Airport, Navs, etc, than do a D-> to the one you need and once back on course- chose to resume by activating that leg. There is synthetic vision so terrain would need to be avoided via yellow (hopefully no red) along the MAP route. Is that what you are...

    Skyview powers up intermittently

    Sounds to me that you may have a weak battery. Are you charging the battery when not in use? I have the same issue in my flying plane. The primary- with battery powers on but the SV-700 needs to be left off until there is alternator power, otherwise the display will continue to reboot. I have...

    Do you use other charts with SV270?

    zephyr charts (sectional @ $3.99 One time fee) and iflightplanner (free) on Ipad. Both excellent products with superior support. you will need the full product of Zephyr charts for the sectional to show in the air- the lite will not do so. Foreflight will allow weather via Stratus, neither of...

    GPS data out to GTX-327

    I have the squat switch, turns on at 60kts and STBY when on the ground. Displays on Skyview respectively. I was never able to get it working using GPS, but others have had success, so it should work.

    Fuel Level Readings

    In my case it says +24 gallons because that is what it showed at 24 gallons, I use the Dynon to report the 30 gallons when I fill it up. What is critical is that you get the redcube or whatever fuel flow you use to be accurate, floats are totally not accurate. The only requirement in the US is...

    CHT/EGT rise when PTT is depressed

    I agree it's a pain, but so was that CHT spike on takeoff! Wait until your conditional  inspection and send it in for repair at that point.In my case the EMS was behind the panel, which involved some work to take it out and put it back in, but I was doing the inspection anyway so good timing...

    Skyview ADSB

    With ADS-B I think longer is better. It seems that the products get better and less expensive as the years progress. I dont think running a poll is the answer, Dynon support has been outstanding, they take the time every time to tell me the way it is, as best they can and I am always fine...

    Turn off VOR in Map display

    good info! I wondered the same thing (remove NDB and seaplane bases to declutter) in the past.

    System start up

    if you have a backup battery it's all very easy. use the #1 button to start up without the master. add the flight plan. My panel goes dark when I crank so the skyview backup battery keeps the Skyview can see all the engine information. You absolutely want to have the engine information...

    Flap Deployed warning above VFE

    I have a VP200, (VP-X does the same thing)set to not power the flaps above 125kts (Vfe), but yes, there is  Dynon alarming pg 9-7 table 14- “Flaps Overspeed”- Indicated airspeed is exceeding Vfe (and flaps are at least partially deployed
