And now this morning my system won't even recognize new charts at all - my datamanager refuses to see new data from SA and all my stuff is set to expire tomorrow.
Fabulous. Dynon, there just has to be a better way...
...right... because no pilot, ever, in the history of ever, has ever flown under VFR or NORDO in IMC. Right?
right? Surely not... Because, you know, that would be against the rules 'n stuff....
When flying with an instrument approach plate up in place of the map screen, will ADSB traffic appear geo-referenced on the approach plate as it does in the map?
I'm doing this exact thing right now, pursuing my IFR in a 9A with Skyview. I found that my coupled LPV approaches did the same thing if I flew them 90-100 knots with zero flaps. I dropped 10 degrees of flaps and flew it a 90 knots, and the performance is much better. On a whim I dropped 20...
I'm electrically dependent, with dual alternators and a single ETX-900VNT battery. I operate off the primary alternator as standard ops, but I always check the backup alternator for output during the runup. Occasionally in flight I will go to the backup alternator for 30 minutes or so just to...
For what it's worth, I use the Sandisk Cruzer 16GB sticks, never had a problem with them, including with the latest software.
USB sticks are pretty much commodity-priced at this point, you might want to find one that works and stick with it.
I've got a 172 waiting for the Dynon STC but your Dallas-based installer is not yet giving any slots. We'll be at Oshkosh hoping for a sign-up sheet...
"not as comprehensive in coverage" - that's an understatement! Out here in flyover country you can forget about it unless you want to head to the "big city".
This is me. I don't think I've ever looked at the visual indicator once yet beyond setting it up originally. When I'm close enough to critical AOA for it to start talking to me, my eyes are outside and staying there and I'm relying on my ears to tell me how much margin I have.
For those that...
I'm also testing Beta hardware from Dynon, and it's making progress. If you are at a point where you have to make a decision today, then you have to use todays data to make a decision and nobody can change that. But there is progress being made.
I am not at liberty to disclose how much...
The control panel is not needed for simplified (or advanced) autopilot work - but is highly desirable for IFR usage under the advanced autopilot control setup.
