The differences in absolute temperatures occur from a number of reasons, one of which is the placement. If they are not equal distance from the flange they will measure different temperatures. I think if you do the research you'll find that the absolute EGT are not as big a concern as the...

From the PDF menu try pressing the G METER button ;) maybe not exactly what you want but it does get rid of the compass rose.

Just keep in mind the current limits. It seems that as more of the probes/sensors go digital it will require more regulated 5V and 12V power supplies. I mentioned to VP-X that they should add a regulated source on one or more of the pins. I believe the only one they have currently is for the...

I believe the proper mounting the ADAHRS will be the best thing that you can do to make the system work well. I don't think there is a limit on the length of the network cable so remote is not a restriction. I hung the ADAHRS from the top of the fuselage in my Glasair behind the rear bulkhead...

I split my +12V between two fuel flow transducers and my capacitive fuel level probe. One inside (level) and two outside (flow) the firewall. I used the Princton fuel probe. It draws 0.02 amps. http://www.aircraftspruce.ca/catalog/inpages/princefuelprobes.php There is a list on page 7-12 of...

I'm happy to hear that there are more places making custom tuned exhaust for airplanes. I've gotten more then a few comments on the sound of my airplane with the tuned exhaust even though it only has a o320 150hp. I've also tweaked a few more knots from it with the tuned exhaust. I think I got...

Make sure to get a cable long enough to place it somewhere handy. See here: http://dynonavionics.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1341816427#4 or here:

True. The GTX327 is using the NMEA data from the GPS495 on the second RX port to determine airspeed and switches to ALT when it thinks it's airborne. I think if I wait long enough the GTX327 will switch to STBY on the ground. The manual says there is a programmable delay. SV TX -> GTX327 RX(1)...

I had the firmware on my GTX327 updated to the latest version while I was doing my annual. The GTX327 Port 1 RX/TX is connected to SV Port 1 RX/TX. I connected the second GTX327 serial RX line to my GPS495 TX. Two things happened. It now displays status on the Skyview top line and I noticed that...

No. No. Dynon assures me it's there. I just have to look a little harder. ;) Better than culture. I was at the EAA workshop at High River this spring and looked with envy at the Rockies just a few minutes to the west. Happy flights Gerry.

Interesting. The joke was that you could tell when you crossed the border by the condition of the roads, the SK side being the old dirt trail as compared to the smoothly paved AB highway. Funny that the Canadian government would consider that the roads on the SK side, while still dirt trails are...

Nothing wrong with a single 10" SV if that is all you can fit. The right side of the panel in my Glasair II is oriented for portrait devices so I could only fit a single 10" SV on the left side. While the 10" is very nice I would make room for a bigger screen if it was available. ;) ;) I use a...

I haven't done any experimenting yet but if you look at the DFG file it has some interesting possibilities. Just guessing here (text following ; are my comments): railroad={ color0=505050FF     ; color of railway color1=505050FF     ; color of tick...

1) Check the scale at which the waypoints show up on the second SV. It's under the MAP MENU. It maybe set too small. 2) Page 7-41 of the Pilots Guide has a list of symbols. Could be the Google symbols don't convert properly with the software you're using. You may have to hand edit the CSV file...

The only way to satisfy the call for larger fonts is a bigger screen in the next generation SV. 1680x1050 in a 16 or 18 inch screen would be nice. I'd make room on my panel for that. BTW. Thanks for the BLING on the map. Opens a whole new level of experimentation for this winter's project. Now...

You might want to contact PocketFMS directly for any omissions in the avdata. They are quick to respond. :)

In the MAP SETUP menu (press and hold buttons 7+8).

The GPS satellite signals are very weak so the receiver needs a clear view of the sky. If the GPS is mounted on the yoke in a metal aircraft it's bound to loose signal intermittently. Put your hand over it and watch the satellites drop out. Mounted thoughtfully, it's a rare occurrence to loose...

They also have a bug where duplicate waypoints will cause this problem. http://dynonavionics.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1342918130/0#13

Jake They went one at a time. It's a winter project to replace them so I'll probably have a look at the wiring before I replace the probes. I have a loop right off the EMS for strain relief. I guess I can check the probes by connecting an analog gauge directly and lighting a match under the...
