    Dynon SV/ Garmin GTN-650/ Dynon Comm/ Dynon ADS-B

    arpb, I think you are already doing what you want. If, you are trying to navigate by and display on the Skyview map the flight plan you entered into the 430, then you have what you want.  There is no need to have that data also loaded into the "Skyview Flight Plan".  Assuming you have the...

    OAT

    Robert, Do you have two ADAHRS boxes also?  The OAT is supposed to be plugged into the ADAHRS.  To what is the non-responding OAT connected? If you have two ADAHRS, only one is "feeding" the system at a time, so the "back-up ADAHRS" temp would not be displayed.  IOW both screens should show...

    Altimeter/transponder recertification procedure

    Another vote for a button press to use during the certification process so the tech doesn't have to charge for so much time.

    serial cables

    lacy311, Null Modem cables should not be used in a Skyview Net Device connection.  These are the EFIS to EFIS and EFIS to ADAHRS, EMS, and/or ARINC boxes.  Instead you need "straight through cables".  In these, each pin has the same wire, in the same position, at both ends. Null modem cables...

    Unable to get Glide Distance Ring on V14.0

    Jubarr What is wrong with this, from the Installation Manual: Glide Ring Setup In SkyView v14.0, the ability to display a Glide Ring was added. For instructions on how to use the Glide Ring feature, see the SkyView Pilot’s User Guide, Rev. W and later. There are two settings that need to be...

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

    With that and V14.0 FW, you are good until Jan 1, 2020.  Then you are non-compliant.  The GPS-2020 is the permanent solution.

    Engine parameters Lean-of-Peak

    The manual tells you how to "fine tune" this behavior by changing the engine horsepower setting on the setup page.  It is a trial and error process.  Go read and try it.

    Strange ADSB behavior

    That's why in the USAF, the call from lead was "XYZ Flight, Choke the Chicken."  Response was, 2...3...4 Translation for the "great unwashed", is "stop squawk".

    EGT/CHT Troubles

    Has anyone else had trouble with erratic EGT/CHT indications using the Dynon supplied sensors? Been flying for years and putting up with erratic indications. Have gone over all the crimps with a quality ratcheting crimper with some improvement, but it doesn't last. Have replaced the EGT sensors...

    Auto copy data log to USB drive upon shutdown?

    In my recommendation, I should have added that the first pop up would disappear automatically after xx (30?) sec.  So, there are no extra pilot actions, unless you really want the logs.

    Auto copy data log to USB drive upon shutdown?

    Dynon, I vote for manual operation.  When engine was running, and RPM is now zero, pop up a yes/no dialog "Export logs?"  If yes, then another yes/no dialog "Clear logs, when done?" If no on the first question, then exit pop up.  If no on second question, then write the logs but do not clear. ...

    RS232 to SV261 transponder question

    Hope you aren't planning to send your unit to the Garmin factory for a S/W update.  It is really expensive that way. My local avionics shop did it for about $50.00, they just have to be a registered Garmin dealer.

    IFR Check

    Steve and others, I THINK that the quote from the install manual says that ATTITUDE calibration will be negatively affected, not pitot/static calibration. Dynon, Please speak up here!!!

    IFR Check

    Steve, The answer is right in the installation manual, pg 5-13, Version 12.2: "Dynon ADAHRS units use airspeed in the calculation of attitude (or GPS ground speed when airspeed is navailable). The internal rate sensors are monitored and calibrated in flight using feedback from the...

    Trim calibration

    Vern, You said,  "It looks like your aircraft is out of rig" Clearly true when flaps are extended.  Not true when in cruise.. However, the autopilot IS NOT running out of trim authority.  It trims, in roll, well beyond the correct in-trim condition, but it does not go "on the stops". While...

    Trim calibration

    Dynon, Any further thoughts since this?

    Trim calibration

    Steve, No.  Of course I measured the flap displacement on the ground.  The builder made a slight error in construction such that the right flap displaces slightly more than the left.  Correction would require cutting up a lot of fiberglass on the fuselage and the left flap.  Without biasing the...

    Trim calibration

    Steve, It is a very slight asymmetry when the flaps are down, none when they are up.  So, it takes quite bit of right aileron and a little right rudder trim to fly slow and straight, hands off, with flaps well down.  Don't want to cut into the flap to reposition the attach. Dynon, It does...

    Trim calibration

    Dynon, You said, "The trim calibration assumes your trim is linear. You set the two ends, and it assumes the voltage that is halfway between is the middle."  Does it matter if this is not a correct assumption? My trim is purposely built to have more "right" than "left" capability (due to flap...

    Skyview 12.1

    Glad to see the goodies that will be in V 12.2.  Can't wait! I am running 12.0 and don't find any reference to 12.1.  Is 12.2 just a typo?
