Where did we end up with this problem? I have D180, single servo, 296, using 5.3? (no pitch servo so havent updated to 5.4) When using NAV mode from G296, Around every 30 min states NAV SRC LOST and reverts to TRK mode I just go and reselect NAV and runs again fine for 30-50 min

It is a common problem. Putting them with washer on first is not only difficult but doesnt stop the problem I use some detergent mix squirted into recess then turn prop, if theres bubbles it needs repositioning. I also leave these plugs installed unless they really need removing for replacement...

In EFI setup there will be a return line to tank. How can we setup D180 to handle NET flow ie total minus returned flow?

the NAV mode is selected once you are airborne. When else would you use AP? Agreed on keeping HDG bug setting in flight - especially when "Nav SRC lost" happens I dont even think about AP until up and well on my way, then changing from HDG to Nav is just extra keystrokes. otherwise could just...

I had a poor connection inside plug for backup battery, caused similar symptoms in a D180 Showed fully charged then flat 2 min later, sometimes shut down on master, sometimes ran on. Kept loosing Baro and time on shutdown. Didnt become repeatable until I had a main bus problem. I slightly bent...

Same thoughts with D180 without AP74 unit Can this be made to arm as NAV instead of HDG Surely majority of people fly on GPS NAV source

Installed SW sender and with type 4 setting Seems to work quite well, in my installation there is constant low pressure on it. I can turn the fuel off when running and it indicates pressure drop as expected, and when turned back on reading is identical I have no idea of accuracy but sure seems...

Re: Unable to conclude satisfactory AP test JABIRU Its possibly not recommended and not so relevant to new aircraft but I pulled back rubber sealing boots on each end of cables x 4, wiped clean and sprayed small amount "Ezy Glide" Difference was dramatic. My SV32 is running 50% torque on roll...

OK, thats the sensor I have so should be OK Im more interested in changing readings than actual numbers Ill keep you posted

Ive been using supplied VDO pressure sender and it worked for a start then seemed to stop, even reading lower pressure when pump turned on. We havent had any response much to sourcing lower pressure sender, so I bought Stewart Warner sender - I know Dynon commented on inaccuracy but anything is...

Cruse in J230/J430 is around 120 @ 2850rpm Running engine BELOW this by much will cause serious problems, could be advising not to sit on one rpm for long while its New There are hundreds here running in Aus - 120 kts all the time. Jabiru are happier with 2900 than 2600.

Yes thats the right location but problem is the pressure in a Jab is way too low for these senders to work well. Also I think the internals arnt that suited to fuel and dont last long. Mine spent its short life reading poorly and has now stopped. I have raised the issue with Dynon, and they...

Seems Vs1 and Vfe were set the same, D180 was doing what it is supposed to Thanks for the help JR

Following this up with customer support, but replies have stopped I have just roll servo installed, speed limits are preset in D180 (not sure how) and I can access them to change them They are set at cruise speeds so difficult to engage AP reliably, once engaged it works well How can I alter...

Bump, is there any progress on this? Did you look into these transducers? 0.5 to 4.5 VDC, needs 5mA @ 5vdc to run, 100 Ohm impedance

My Dynon supplied fuel sender now reads 0.8 Bar all the time, and drops to 0.7 when the electric pump is turned on, It used to read over 1 Bar when pump on and drop a bit when pump turned off. Ive have checked pump oeration - all OK Waste of time now - done around 100hrs

I hope your not talking about 5.2 being months away? JR

Its very easy to do it all directly on the D100 - 2 presses on same button opens menu and engages, one more press switches source Inside same menu is Bugs section and can sync with current track here too JR

recently I had similar problem, I restarted program then requested the program to find version and it enquired, answered correctly and returned to normal operation JR
