    Fat Fuel Gauges

    Bear I haven't fiddled with the CHT/EGT yet. It looks like the wire combination is named (CHT 4 or EGT 2, etc) in the ranges area of the EMS file and then the EGT/CHT_WIDGET makes up the gauge in the Layout area. There are two versions. The EGT_WIDGET, CHT_WIDGET and the combined...

    Weather on the Skyview

    I'll put in my vote for checklists. I noticed that the inflight setup maintains the flight gauges. For me both the flight and engine gauges would be handy to have available while the check list is up. Things like setting the baro and checking RPM drop or doing a pre landing checklist are good...

    Autopilot settings guide

    For my Glasair II with spring loaded pitch trim and SV32 servos I used the default settings but turned the roll sensitivity down to 10. The SV32 servos display trim constantly so I need a larger servo for pitch.

    Fat Fuel Gauges

    I did some more experimenting with the engine gauges: The bars only have one parameter that you can change other then the size or position. That is the thickness as noted above. The thickness of the arcs can be modified as well as the start and length of the arc which can supply a variety of...

    Screen Shot of VNAV

    The link needs to be between the I don't think you can post an image off your hard drive with the image delimiters. It requites an internet url. But you can check to see if it's working correctly by doing a preview.

    Connecting older GNS 430 to Skyview

    RX status from Garmin xponders has been a SV feature since release 2.6: http://dynonavionics.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1288677404/0#0 But evidently not from older models. I'd be interested if there is a way to update the GTX327 firmware. It would be a lot less expensive then an upgrade to...

    Connecting older GNS 430 to Skyview

    I have an older Garmin GTX327 and it doesn't output any recognizable serial data. In fact, unlike what the downloaded manual describes, it has no configuration settings for serial TX. The xponder message on the SV is crossed out when I set it for xponder RX. All the things is should be able to...

    Auto Pilot "reverse" sensing

    It's just an easy method for installation as it doesn't matter how they are wired or installed. When you configure them they figure out which way they have to move for pitch up/down and roll left/right.

    7" paired with 10" screen

    I believe larger hole in the panel is the only difference.

    Aircraft Exhaust Inc.

    The original developer of the 4in1 exhaust system has taken over my project. He is going into production to take over from Aircraft Exhaust Inc. His new website is here: http://experimentalexhaust.com So far Chris has given me excellent service. :)

    Fuel Level Calibration

    Don't forget to change the red/yellow/green ranges in the gauge if you change the top value.

    Fuel Level Calibration

    If you go to the fuel calibration page, it shows the current calibration but also shows the current reading from the sensor in the top right hand corner. My sensor is a screw type float and it sometime sticks. I missed the first forty litres of the total 130 litres on my calibration so the next...

    CHT go up when transmitting

    Could be the iCOM. As mentioned my analog gauges would do the same thing. I don't remember my old Valcom 760 affecting the gauges.

    Thanks Jake. I'll give that a try.

    Fat Fuel Gauges

    I was looking for an easy way to distinguish the main fuel tank from the aux tank which is much smaller. I found that the params in the sensor file  controls the width of the of the fuel bar so I made the main tank fuel bar wider then the aux tank fuel bar: To change it, export the sensor...

    CHT go up when transmitting

    I have the same problem so I'll be interested if there is a solution. The problem was there before I converted to the SV. My analog engine gauges would go full when I transmitted. I completely rewired when I put the SV in but still see the CHT on SV go higher when I transmit. I have an iCOM...

    Servo Test

    I ran the calibration of the servos and tried a test but am getting slip in pitch. Roll is fine. I haven't tried it in the air yet. The servos are SV32 in a Glasair II. The pitch trim is spring loaded. The servo can't go to full deflection against the pitch trim spring. Is this a problem? It's...
