There are a couple of reasons we hear that people want AGL. Even though SkyView separately provides glide range, some people have expressed a desire to self-train their "how high am I / how far can I go" senses by having a rough cross-check of AGL that they can check against a gues. Note that...

What are the pitot and static sources for the analog instruments and the SkyView ADAHRS? Are the altimeters the same on the ground? I'm wondering if static is being routed somewhere differently on the SkyView ADAHRS, and it is seeing some pressure that is different than the static ports that...

The EFIS-D10A's will measure any voltage between its 10-30V spec'd power range. There's nothing magical that changes above that - strictly speaking. In other words, it will continue to read accurately, until the point when you start frying things (in other words, 30V is the "spec", don't feed it...

So not having a source selected IS an option. And, when you have the g-meter shown, the HSI source indication is suppressed, so is the selector (at least from that menu). But it doesn't appear that selecting the g-meter actually toggles or turns off the source that is selected. In other words...

Hi Igor - Can you send some pictures of what you are seeing to support at dynonavionics dot com? A few other thoughts: Is altitude wrong on the ground after setting the BARO setting for the airport correctly? For speed, make sure you have your units set to either mph, knots, or kph as you're...

Yes. There are two display modes, "classic" and "modern". They actually change the style of the tapes too. The classic has the numbers on top of the ias and altitude tapes, and uses a sky pointer. The modern presentation has the numbers in the middle, and also adds the animated scolling digits...

AOA does not depend on G-load. When you are turning base to final at 30 degrees, though, you're necessarily flying at a higher AOA in the turn to maintain flight. Basically, the AOA indication doesn't care whether or not it sees a stall. The highest AOA you demonstrate during calibration is...

You'll basically want to go through all of the installation steps from the manual for the relevant pieces of the new equipment (and skim the first parts that explain system architecture and how things are set up and configured more generally.). From your list, the transponder, ads-b, and comm...

Yes, you'll change things you don't want to if you load one aircraft's config file on another. Almost everything (but not everything) will transfer if you just use one aircraft's config file on another aircraft, including calibrations. Essentially, you don't want to do it. (Hobbs and tach don't...

It is the intended behavior. On the IFR side - where the VNAV behavior originated - your "next" altitude should be the one you'll be going to if you go missed. In other words, you don't hang out at your decision height. You have the runway and can continue, or you go missed. Though I suppose you...

Electrically, on devices with multiple SkyView Network ports, the pins are electrically shorted to each other. While the physical failure of a board that breaks that connection is I suppose possible, I think it's unheard of as a failure mode. Definitely less likely than the failure of a wire or...

There isn't currently a way to do this. Right now the guidance to a runway is separate - and as you've discovered - separate from the rest of the flight plan.

Well one thing - you'll only be able to select NAV mode if the currently active HSI source has an active CDI (IE, either a flight plan or direct-to on the device is currently active). So perhaps it was just that? Beyond that possibility, having the g-meter up shouldn't inhibit your ability to...

Pin 18 isn't meant for higher-current applications like charging an external device, and the D2 will definitely try to pull more than 300mA (I forget the exact number, but it's higher).

Hi Dale - there isn't a way to add remote buttons to the FlightDEK-D180. We do have the HS34 and AP74 that remote certain functions, but there isn't a serial or DSAB interface that is general-purpose in nature.

It looks likes its grounded / open states are the opposites of the Dynon pitot, so you'll need to account for that when setting up the contact. But otherwise, the same (but again, opposite)

Li-Ion batteries actually do self-discharge, but slower than other chemistries. Beyond having more available charge to discharge in an unplanned discharge situation, the other reason to not store li-ion batteries fully charged is that lifespan is reduced when they're fully charged (particularly...

As Jake said, it sounds like you may not have done your SkyView Network configuration: the servos are SkyView Network devices and won't be seen by the system until you perform that step.

I admit - I'm scratching my head a bit here. I think we should probably have you work directly with our support team at 425-402-0433 or support at dynonavionics dot com so that we can dig a little deeper here.

There isn't currently vertical HITS when paired to external IFR sources. As for the notion that there's some marketing/engineering conflict that drives things - that narrative just isn't true here. Most of us - across marketing, sales, product, and engineering are all active small aircraft...
