One tiny, microscopic bug in 12.2. May also have been in 12.0. After loading in my flightplan from Easy VFR, it says " Foreflight Flightplan Loaded. " Vern

Dang, I found out today that Dynon requires an adapter for each display.  I assumed that I only needed one (for the display I use as a map). I ordered one through ACS in Canada, and paid the outrageous shipping charge.  If I had known I needed two, I could have saved about $25 and two weeks of...

Correct English is fewer SkyViews, not less. Nevertheless (or neverthefewer?) I like any idea that increases the legibility or functionality of existing functions, as opposed to new features. I hope we don't ever see auto-land from Dynon! There are a bunch of suggestions that came up on the...

I think underdog is under-equipped.... No AOA.  He said that his 747 didn't have one, so neither does his RV-7 tail dragger.  I would point out, however, that the '47 has a nose wheel. Vern

Thanks, Jake.  It's a shame that government agencies continue to publish obsolete information.  Codes have changed in 2012', but internet searches continue to turn up obsolete info.  Here's a definitive link for ICAO codes: ...

Wow, I admire your creativity. I have been studying alternative ways to display information and this is a good example. People are resistant to change, however, so this would be best implemented as an adjunct display, perhaps replacing a standard aoa indicator. I am an IOS guy, so I can't...

From the Pfms foundation: "Using the new WiFi feature of your Dynon SkyView EFIS, EasyVFR is capable of transferring FlightPlans to & from SkyView systems. This makes flight planning and last-minute in-flight changes a breeze! Specially if your Dynon SkyView is connected to an Auto-Pilot your...

Nice to see the SkyView system is being tweaked and refined. Sometimes new whiz-bang features are introduced that may be cool but not always useful. I like to see refinements that improve ease of use, legibility or in this case, simplifying installation and lowering cost. Nice job. It would...

Thanks. I am also out of commission for several weeks, so I am not able to follow this up until then. Keep up the good work. Vern

Great job, Murray! We Canadians ask for features politely, but when ignored we take matters into our own hands! In your case, it's software, in mine it's hardware. Someone has to show Dynon how to do it ;-) Vern p.s. Were are picking flowers and mowing the grass here in Victoria... how are...

Dynon recommends 50 ohm resistors to ground on the SkyView audio outputs.  They serve to drop the audio level and system noise. You may find that a lower value resistor works better.  Only one per SkyView is required in this application.  You should be running the SkyView audio level around 75%...

Due to the limitations of my access to the main battery, I can't use a high power charger, so I added a separate SkyView power port, illustated in the following: http://www.vx-aviation.com/sprocket/photos/panel_elec/schematics/AV.pdf Vern

You can now suppress the units on the display so that the gauge just shows the name. In most cases that is all that is required and you don't really want the TIMING gauge to read in PSI. See the gauges below. Most just show the name.don't really want the TIMING gauge to read in PSI. See the...

One can hope that EasyVFR will be supported. The most recent version of EasyVFR has a WiFi FP option... sounds like it might just be what you are looking for...

I have two SkyView screens... one of which is on during engine cranking and the other that is switched on after the engine starts. Predictably, the two Hobbs times do not agree. Is there a software work-around that you can contemplate for this? Perhaps have a mode that syncs to the highest...

Running 11.1 special, as I recall. The special is the serial port fix patch for freq passthrough. I have a call into Navcan about this to see if I can get more info.

Last week, I received a call from ATC during my runup, asking me to squawk STBY on my SV transponder. The said it was showing up on their display. It was in GND mode, and my understanding is that it would not reply to mode-a or mode-c interrogations in this mode. The airport (Langley, BC)...

Open your hangar door. It sounds like you are not receiving a stable GPS solution. Vern

Or the SkyView sends flight/engine data to a D2ish device in the back seat.

Thanks, Eric I found a perfect location using an existing screw that positions my camera just so, so the 90 degree field works fine. Looking forward to taxiing around with my head down! For Dynon: I wish there was a one button push to toggle the camera display on and off. The two-step is OK...
