    D10A and D10EMS differing voltages

    Question... I seem to be having a strange voltage ghost going on. The EMS is saying I have low voltage at 12.1-13.4, which is lower than the regulator setting of 13.68v. But my load shunt from the generator is reading 14-20 amps charging from the alternator. And the part I'm not sure about is...

    Engage Altitude Hold only

    So, I'm reading you say the only way is to engage both then turn off the one you don't want on, where you want only one axis being controlled? thx for the insights.

    SV-COM-C25 radio gain issue

    This radio has a receiver gain automatic suppression feature that is really annoying. When flying parade formation where the antenna's might be 20 ft apart the transmissions received are greatly reduced to the point of not being able to hear them. If I slip the aircraft so there is not line of...

    Engage Altitude Hold only

    I'm not finding the method for how to engage only the altitude hold servo without engaging the directional/roll servo? The AP button and Level button engage both. Toggling to alt hold in the screen commands arms pitch for altitude hold but also arms roll. The answer is probably so obvious I...

    Maintenance Log - clearing item

    Since I just updated to the latest version (02/2021) of Classic SW my 7" is flagging that a maintenance item has expired but none of them have expired or are red indicating expiration. I also decided to delete most of them and this did not clear the "message" flag? I'm not finding any...

    Skyview and aerobatics

    The attached links to a short video I did of the Skyview in simple aerobatics and in the second loop you'll see it gets a bit lost and does not fully recover in roll for about 20 seconds. The other loops shown in the video it does do better. I also find my D10 has a similar intermittent...

    E/P-Mag Timing Data on Dynon EMS products

    Has anyone ever thought about suggesting Dynon and E-mag work together to allow the EMS product line to display timing data on the EMS screen, and include it in the HP calculations? It would also be wonderful data for the black box records. Just thinking out loud here.

    SV-COM C25 Modulation Question

    It happens on the ground an in the air and with at least four other transmitters. 100 feet away it's not really a problem but 15 ft and it usually happens. I'll try with a handheld to see what happens.

    SV-COM C25 Modulation Question

    My SV-COM seems to have a modulation issue that is problematic. When the other transmitter is really close, as in formation flying the transmitted audio starts loud very briefly, but then goes really low and distorted. This makes it impossible to receive fairly important transmissions while in...

    D10A and EMS no longer connects to PC

    As a follow up, a new Dynon cable did the trick. I can’t say I’ve had too many serial cables up and die on me.

    D10A and EMS no longer connects to PC

    Argh, to update... Borrowed a friend’s Dynon USB to serial converter cable and it worked. I guess nothing lasts forever, but in truth I’ve probably only used that cable twenty times. Off to ordering another one...

    D10A and EMS no longer connects to PC

    Hi, The serial to USB cable is black, as supplied from Dynon. It worked well for some years and in fact was used to update the last update, circa 2016 sometime. Agreed, it’s the same issue with more than one unit so is likely not back end wiring. With Windows 8 or 10, which driver should I be...

    D10A and EMS no longer connects to PC

    OK, so, as of about a year ago something changed that will not allow either unit to connect to download data, view version, etc. Both were updated to the latest versions in late 2016. I used my Mac/Bootcamp/Win8 and the Dynon serial cable, which has worked fine since new. Now this no longer...

    Wind Vector Variations between D10 and Skyview

    Does IAS matter if TAS is identical? It seems to me that TAS is the better factor, and in our case they will often be one kt apart. We've done this a few times in really smooth air where TAS was one kt different, both were on the same GPS track due to the formation and heading was within one to...

    Wind Vector Variations between D10 and Skyview

    I regularly fly formation with another like airplane RV-3 and RV-8, mine has a Skyview, the other has a D-10. Both have the latest upgrades although the problem has persisted since we first noticed it. Both have been swung per Dynon compass swing procedures. The problem is with both planes in...

    SV-COM-25 Squelch Adjustment

    I couldn't agree more, USB filtering is piss poor. I run small USB batteries to charge/run the IOs, completely isolated from the AC electrical system. I do have the ability to charge the second battery while the other is in use and it does not seem to change the squelch equation any. I may try...

    SV-COM-25 Squelch Adjustment

    Per airguy's post: yes I would say that the issue with squelch breaking is worse higher up the band but the real issue is not giving me the transmissions that are clearly being made and can be easily heard when manually toggling RX on. I don't know what the radio uses to discriminate between...

    SV-COM-25 Squelch Adjustment

    I am still greatly dissatisfied with the squelch control of the SV-COM-25. I have to keep it at 67 to prevent unsolicited squelch breaks but this setting causes it to cut out many, often critical transmissions. I can't hear other airplanes on the ground at my airport less than 5000 feet away...

    What is default squelch setting of SV-COM-C25?

    Mark & Quote Quote I think the default Squelch for the SV-COM-C25/X83 is 50%. Increasing Squelch (in all radios) means that more "energy" (stronger transmitted, or received radio signal) is required before the squelch "opens" and you can hear the audio. DEcreasing squelch means that less...
