    Using the back of Skyview for wire support? (hear me out)

    As mentioned above, I would advise against it - it seems easy to get to it now but once the panel is in the plane you won't be able to remove the display from the panel with those wires attached.

    Sleep Alarm - Feature Request.

    If you're looking for something to keep you awake because you are too tired in the cockpit - I'm going to politely suggest you shouldn't be in the cockpit in the first place. This is a solution to a problem that should not exist.

    No TAF or METAR data

    I had the same problem for a few hours this morning, was cured up after lunch. Maybe the FAA finally got a chance to re-lick their cat.

    Taxi plate won't show actual location aircraft

    Try other airports - it could be an error on just the one plate, or it could be that your GPS is giving a false location.

    RF noise from hydraulic system

    If the power wires leading to the LGPC are serving as an antenna for the noise, then putting this filter as close as possible to the LGPC may do the trick. Does the LGPC have a metallic case to serve as a Faraday cage for internal noise? If not, the aluminum foil idea has some merit.

    Fuel flow greater than limit

    Likely, that is correct. When the FT-60 itself fails, normally what you get is zero flow indication at all.

    Skyview for GPS/RNav?

    The SkyView is not a certified navigation receiver - so no. It may be even more precise than the legally certified device, but it's not certified, so no.

    Fuel flow greater than limit

    It could be either sensor or circuit. If you have any bubbles in the fuel (air bubbles, or fuel vapor bubbles) the FT-60 will see each of those bubbles as an extra "pulse" that will artificially increase your fuel flow. The fuel is not flowing faster - but the sensor believes it is. On the...

    Seattle Avionics .....normal monthly frustration....

    Perhaps the Parallel is getting to you. I have been one of the most vocal critics of the SA app and I still don't like it much - but I will give them credit for the recent software overhaul. It did make most of my heartburn go away and my last few updates have been a non-issue.

    Auto Pilot Flies Left Wing Low

    Your ball is centered with the autopilot on and left wing low? If you need a little rudder trim, and don't have the ball centered with your feet off the rudders, then the AP will drop one wing to counter the rudder.

    Mounting ADAHRS

    There are plastic backshells also, and brass hardware is preferred.

    HDX ADAHRS, Transponder and EMS failure

    This is likely a wiring problem on the cables coming into the HDX. Check for a bent or loose pin, or a wire loose in a crimped pin, or a loose connector.

    Dynon Coms/Navigator

    Yep, what Rhino said. The answer is "Maybe", but nobody outside of Dynon knows for sure and nobody is going to say publicly until it's ready to ship.

    What is that standby AH you have on the top right?

    First Flight with the Dynon HDX Dynon ADSB and Dynon Transponder

    Reception of traffic coming in is from the ADSB-472 receiver unit. ATC seeing your aircraft (primary versus secondary) is in your transponder.

    Shunt breakage

    Hah! So I was mouthing off about how I've got so much time on my shunt without breakage, and wondering what you guys were doing to them... then I started my annual inspection this week (RV9A), and guess what I found? Yup, I just ordered a shunt... 7 years and 1250 hours, but it finally gave up.
