I find that the analog depiction of airspeed and altitude are particularly valuable for high alpha flight. Aerobatics, dogfighting and the landing pattern are where I find them most valuable. Even if only these two gauges were available I would consider it a big improvement. A glance tells you...

Always start with the easy things first. Have you checked the connections at the shunt? Check them all but it seems more likely from your description the small indication wires may have a loose/bad connection. If the battery is staying charged the big wires are probably fine but you might as...

What operating system is on the laptop? There were some driver issues at one point. You may want to check the Dynon support site for the drivers they recommend. I believe that resolved this issue for most.

Where is the weather displayed? There is a great deal of information available on ADSB including winds, METAR, TAF, NOTAMS etc. I am hopeful this will all be able to be displayed on the Skyview but did not think anything but traffic was currently shown. Does this other information display now...

The fuel burn rate is a fuel computer which is different than the quantity system. Have you calibrated the system yet? Was it working before? If so, you may want to consider restoring your backup settings.

I can give you the numbers for the converter if you need them but the guy at Princeton is very good and knows your VM probe. You will have to calibrate the probe to the converter prior to calibrating the Dynon. PM me if you need more info. Happy to help. With some luck (and a lot of diligent...

Rick, I have the same probe in the Glasair 2 RG I am building. You will need a converter from Princeton. This converts the capacitance output of the probe to the 0-5v that Dynon needs. Princeton is easy to work with.

Since you have the voltage numbers and a linear function, you should have all the information you need. I think they just recommend you put the information into a spreadsheet to determine the values you need to input. It looks like the example they give may cover your circumstance as long as you...

Rudy, the Skyview components can be installed in any order. The only real restrictions are that the EMS module must be on the cold side of the firewall and the ADAHRS modules must be installed within a certain envelope depicted in the install manual and in a magnetically inert area. The envelope...

The good news is your responses tell me to put the probe out in the wing. The bad news is trying to figure out how to run the additional wires!

As a follow on, I have a problem with the OAT in a D10A in the aircraft I currently fly. It reads accurately on the ground but is far too warm at altitude. This throws the True Airspeed calculations off. Since I am building two more aircraft (with Skyviews) I need to know if sensor placement is...

I think the Garmin 480 outputs the standby VHF and VOR as well. Will have to look it up to verify.

Thanks for the info on the modification available. This (old YABB 2.1) format is much better.

I like the new web software since it has the navigation features at the bottom of every page as well using the Back feature. The problem cam this morning with a shift to gray instead of the normal blue. The blue used (even with the new bulletin board software) was much easier to read. The text...

Do you have the recommended resistors in the RPM sense leads? If you do not have any resistors, you should refer to the install manual to find the value recommended. If you have them installed you may need to increase the value of the resistance.

The Skyview contains an integral autopilot computer but it will only drive it's own Dynon servos connected via the Skyview network. While the servos look very similar externally, the Dynon servos also contain other items internally which measure force, slipping etc. You could probably sell the...

Will the Skyview or legacy products (specifically D10A) display the output from a King KLN 89B? Is any other equipment required? Is ARINC 429 required to display glideslope from a GNS 430/530 or 480? How about the VNAV output from a Garmin X96? Is this compatibility information listed where I...

I want the advanced flight planning to have the ability to load routes pulled from the database to include Victor airways, T routes, Q routes, or Jet airways (for those that need them). More importantly, it needs to receive and display the flight plan from an IFR GPS Such as the GNS 480...

How old are the Lightspeeds David? The original ones output a much lower signal voltage which Dynon might have trouble reading. Claus will update them to the new configuration for free. I think the new ones put out a higher pulse voltage which the Skyview reads just fine.

Support, Do you know if the Garmin GNS 480 sends out time?
