This is an RV9A, I normally cruise in the 14k-17k altitudes and average 22 nautical miles per gallon there, with a 1500nm range. Notice in the bottom right of the picture the "runtime" shows current flight time at 2 hours 24 minutes, and the range to empty exceeds 1000 miles up there with the...

At that point in time, I was talking to Salt Lake Center on 125.575 through my 430W. What is your theory? The dropouts are not associated with transmitting from the unit, the vast majority of them occur during cruise without transmissions.

Keep in mind that without the 2020 antenna, if you lose your 430W you also lose you ADSB-out and have to stay clear of the airspace where ADSB is required. The incremental cost of the antenna is small for the backup it provides.

They have been occurring with regularity to a large number of Skyview users, myself included. Today flying home from the Reno Air Races I had a number of minor dropouts and one that lasted long enough that the autopilot kicked off GPSS mode to track mode. Here's a screenshot of one of the...

You get them with a data subscription from Seattle Avionics - either VFR or IFR. You can get taxi diagrams, VFR sectionals, Approach plates, and IFR Hi and LO charts, installed on a USB stick that plugs into the screen and accessible from there.

So his wife/girlfriend/co-pilot doesn't know where he's been? :cool:

KSMP is not an airport. It doesn't exist. There is an automated weather reporting station, but no airport. I'm not sure where the identifier "KSMP" came from but it's not valid.

Correct, KSMP is not a valid airport and will not be displayed. There is a transmitting ASOS for Stampede Pass weather though, on 135.275. That can be found on the sectional chart. You can also contact Stampede Radio on 122.4.

August 24, about 10:30am local As noted above - Dynon actually shows it correctly - I assumed otherwise because I did not see it on Foreflight or Skyvector. The question for me now is why it was missing from those sources.

Ok, now this is interesting - that actually pulls up to a legitimate TFR for firefighting efforts near Mertzon TX - but in that case the question then becomes why didn't the TFR show up on SkyVector or ForeFlight? Looks like I've falsely accused Dynon of having the incorrect information - their...

There's been a bogus TFR displayed just west of KSJT for several days now. They have one legit TFR that touches the Class D for CBP drone operations, but there is another bogus one about 15 miles west.

Generally speaking, the techs will want to connect to the pitot under the wing and the static port(s) on the aft fuselage. You should not need to have any additional connection points. I have had a shop tell me they couldn't get the pitot side to stabilize (leaking) because they forgot to block...

What Skyview hardware and software are you using?

The two primary things that will affect wind speed indications are the magnetic calibration for the ADAHRS and the zero-airspeed calibration.

Most, if not all, of the Dynon staff are at the Oshkosh event this week and won't be back in the office until early next week. Please be patient and give them a few days to get home and settled.

This was a diagnosed problem with a defined fix some time ago, implemented by filtering the EMS inputs. Dynon tech can assist you.

Same experience with my RV9A.

You seem to be asking an awful lot of basic questions for a subject matter expert who has built 4 RV's already (among others).

Once you have a glideslope available on the HSI, then the VNAV function is enabled and you can select it - prior to that the VNAV function is disabled (greyed out and unselectable) because it has nothing to follow. It will not follow a "step-down" without vertical guidance being received either...

+1 for changing it to destination. I've been doing a work-around to accomplish the same goal, would be nice if it was directly calculated. Dynon - note here that nobody has asked for an ADDITIONAL line of data - we don't necessarily want or need both fuel at waypoint and fuel at destination...
