    AutoTrim

    Two options - the fully integrated "Dynon" solution is with the autopilot controller, but there is another box sold by "Makerplane" that is an aftermarket add-on that will also do the job, if you don't want to use the Dynon autopilot control panel (or your panel is already built without it).

    GPS Altitude Accuracy

    And flying at 18,000' or above puts you in Class A airspace, positive control IFR only. There is an exceptional to that rule for up to 3000' AGL and above 18,000 but there is no place in the continental US where that is possible. Up to 17,999' you are legal to be using the current altimeter...

    Complete System Failure In Flight

    Sounds like we've got a trend forming, and pointing at a bug in the 14.0 software fairly strongly. Dynon?

    Screen reboots constantly

    Still waiting, still no contact from Tech Support And nobody answers the tech support hotline. This just keeps getting better and better.

    I am SO sick of the SA app

    So in essence SA is saying "Sure, it will be available early, except for when it isn't." That's comforting...

    Starter / master switch

    Why not use a standard master and a pushbutton switch for the starter?

    Screen reboots constantly

    Dynon - any news on this? I have received no contact from anyone at tech support.

    Second EFIS will not wake up

    What software version? I have a pair of 10" screens, and previous to 14.0 I had no problems at all with them - but since loading 14.0 my right hand screen reboots after about 30 seconds of normal display, continuously in a loop.

    Screen reboots constantly

    I have a dual-SV-10" with software 14.0, just prior to first flight doing taxi testing in my 9A. Today my second (right side) screen started something new - it boots completely and comes up with it's normal screen, stays that way about 30-40 seconds, and then reboots. The reboot starts all the...

    More GPS 2020 Questions

    Pretty much, yes. I have a 430W in my 9A and had it connected to the transponder for the certified GPS location, and then last night I installed the GPS 2020 and simply changed the position source in the transponder menu and it works fine.

    Installing GPS-2020

    I received my GPS 2020 on Friday and installed it today, spliced the wires about 8" from the GPS puck and everything works great. Life is good! This is with my antenna in the FWF area looking up through my fiberglass cowl, inside a closed hangar. No problem getting a good satellite lock.

    News: SV-GPS-2020 Shipping & SkyView 14.0 Released

    With the GPS-250 original receiver, I believe that is correct.

    What CAN you do with autopilot and no certifiedGPS

    I can't disagree entirely, though I would love to see some competition in the market. I was quite happy being able to link the 430W to my autopilot via the Dynon Airinc box, and it does give me a fully capable IFR receiver that is immune to a software problem in the Dynon. Developing a certified...

    Switching calibration sets?

    That's a good idea, I'll consider that. I just received my airworthiness certificate yesterday afternoon, and first flight is still a few weeks away, so I'm realistically a couple months from recalibrating for both fuels. I'll respond back to this thread when I've got it figured out if nobody...

    I am SO sick of the SA app

    I tried it yesterday morning, it did not work for me - but it downloaded just fine this morning.

    What CAN you do with autopilot and no certifiedGPS

    I installed the ARINC-429 interface in mine and put a Garmin 430W in the panel connected to the ARINC box, that will allow me to couple the autopilot to the VNAV coming from the certified Garmin receiver. You'll need some form of certified GPS receiver that will output to the ARINC device to be...

    What CAN you do with autopilot and no certifiedGPS

    It is a little crazy, but you'll need a "certified" receiver to give vertical navigation information to the autopilot and have it follow that. This goes for both ILS and GPS VNAV. Without a certified receiver, I believe you can still see it on the screen, but the autopilot won't couple to it...

    Heated pitot installation question

    I cut my aluminum tube short enough that it doesn't need to bend, and made the switch to plastic tubing there. Make sure you leave several inches of aluminum to dissipate the heat from the heated pitot though, so it won't soften the plastic. I would advise to measure it carefully and cut it...
