yes & yes :D Jake J

David Access 'panel' (2 x screws) is on the right rear side at bottom edge. Jake J

Jamie It would be a good idea to add an ethernet cable as well, that way both screens can share mapping & database with the purchase of 1 x Jepps subscription. Jake J

Great to hear you've got it sorted, default settings are just that - changes will/may be required on different aircraft types, it's called fine tuning ;D Jake J

Kevin DS have the 'standard' harness however you can buy the CHT/EGT thermocouple wire from them at approx $1/foot, rest is easy to add to or maybe Steinair will do your custom harness ;) Jake J

there's an echo here ;D Jake J

Re: Crazy RPM I'd try adding a 30K oHm resistor in series to the RPM signal wire, see how that goes as it can't 'hurt' but you may have to increase this value, up to 100K in 10K increments, to stabilise the RPM. HTH Jake J ;)

Brian You should have this from Dynon with the purchase of the Mapping option, then you need to redeem this to get the License code  see  http://dynonavionics.com/docs/SkyView_Certificate_Redemption.html The 'certificates' (on blue paper)  are either shipped with the unit, if bought at same...

or............ could be another issue, did you swap probes to confirm fault ? As an aside - I've done many installs and never had to buy a replacement EGT probe. Not saying they don't fail, I just look for other causes for the symptoms before spending money on replacements. ;) It's pays to fit...

The 'sensitivity' ( a salesman once told me it was responsive) isn't unique to any one aircraft, but mostly to the closer coupled, or light effort elevator force, airframes - the RV9, 6, early Glasair and many others have this pitch  issue, I know some Glasairs here have an aerodynamic mod to...

"Jake, The VP-X won't show checklists. The VP-X doesn't have any screen or display, it requires an EFIS for all display, so what it displays is up to the EFIS manufacturer." DS - I knew that  ;)  It was my 'shorthand' way of asking if the checklist feature would be implemented with the VP-X...

C u next Friday night - we can discuss this more then ;) Jake J

Won't the VP-X show checklists ? Jake J

FWIW - I know of another brand of autopilot, with their standard servo, in a Glasair without any trim issues.  The trim indication just maybe a sensitive indication and not really a problem, I'm guessing that if the indication wasn't shown you wouldn't know/feel any difference in it's operation...

Murray Sorry to be insistent here but IF everything is 'secure' AND you are seeing this high discharge with everything that's not needed turned off I'd be checking the crimped terminals.  ie B lead from alternator to shunt to bus & the 2 shunt wires to Dynon. If you're satisfied that the...

Re: D100 airspeed incorrect and fluctuating enormo Not necessarily ;) Jake J

Re: D100 airspeed incorrect and fluctuating enormo Did you disconnect the pitot/static lines at the instrument & have the 'mechanic' connect a pitot/static test box directly to the Dynon.  Doing each check will determine for sure where the fault is  ;) Jake J

Murray Yes, shunt is correct. Most (likely) amp issues are due to connections whether they be poor quality terminals/crimping/security. You may have done a great job however that's where I'd be checking first :) Jake J

DS Just a wild thought here ;) - maybe these guys could install one of those 'filter' type dsub connectors onto the AP74 or use shielded wire (grounded at both ends) as maybethe issue could be EMI ?? worth a try ? Jake J

Good to hear that Trev. :) Best, Jake J
