FWIW - I've found the SV-GPS-250 antenna will 'lock on' inside a steel hangar whereas the Garmin GTN, 400/500 & GX (Apollo) series Gps antennas will not. My GX60 (Tso 129A1) antenna works very well under the 1/2" foam fuselage top &, unless required to do otherwise, I will be mounting the new...

2 aerials, one for each radio ;) Jake J

You can make it either one, up to you. However if you have the Dynon as (displayed on SV) Com 1 you can use the database for entry of Com frequencies, that requires a current database but a lot don't do that here due cost. Jake J

Arinc 429 is as per the SV install manual, no other wiring info needed for that. Garmin GTN 650 as # 2 Com --- Connector P1003 Dynon Intercom Phone Audio HI pin 7 pin 8 Lo pin 18 * Mic Audio HI pin 5 15 LO pin 20...

When the shear screw breaks there can, & sometimes is, be some drag in the system caused by 1. the broken screw end 'dragging' against the servo arm & 2. the arm being held firmly by the arm screw (not shear screw) & nylon washer -with light ailerons the only way (at the moment) to confirm for...

thanks for being open about the result, I'm sure it could help others  :)  For me, a note to self - engage a/pilot & gently apply pressure on stick to move ailerons with someone to hold them, do not clamp them in place otherwise you can/will break the screw if it wasn't broken  ;) Jake J

Not hard to check Sylvio, just level the aircraft first then check if instrument is also level ;) Jake J

Be careful what you ask for as it ends with bigger & bigger ( read more pages) install/ operating manuals which a lot won't bother to read anyway. ::) ;D Jake J

21 years ago our aircraft had the tube mounted to the outboard inspection panel. FYI & to help others - Ever since I've been doing installation work I've always done the same to other aircraft as it works well & makes for easy removal of the whole tube, mount & associated heater module (which...

DS - Thanks for the 'heads up' on that with vers 2.6 as I wasn't aware :-[ Jake J

Steve I think you are correct. We had issues here with a SV TXPDR ocassionally transmitting incorrect (although the correct one was entered) Hex codes, the fix was to boot up the SV's first & then the Transponder. Seems like you're having the same sort of problem. For others reading this I'd...

The 'bug' I knew of resulted in a temperature reading approx 20 deg C higher than actual :) Jake J

I generally agree about the 'high' quality but let me give you 3 reasons why I'm cautious - 1. I can't afford to totally believe that what the instruments are saying is true - for example, too late to do anything if you have serious engine problems due under oil emp or pressure readings. 2. ...

Robert Yes to all, DSAB is via the wiring between the units. The install manual (always use the latest version) covers it all :) Jake J

DS - You did mean 4 & 8 ? :) Jake J

Thanks Ian, I'm sure you guys are very busy & doing the best you can - some clients can't wait to get away from Garmin's monopoly position & use other manufacturers products ;) Jake J

Thanks Vern, that helps ;) Jake J

" When we have the firmware later this year, you can update your SkyView, transponder, and then set the transponder to use the Avidyne format." DS - Can you guarantee you will have the firmware later this year as we have some aircraft ops that require them to be compliant by Feb 2016? :) Jake J

Thanks Dave. Jake J

John I'm not familiar with the IFD units, yet, but did you connect to 2 serial outputs ie 1 for Aviation Out & a second one for the ADSB out to pin 3 of the -261 & configured for that ? If yes, then maybe it's a software issue between the -261 & IFD units ;) Jake J
