    I am SO sick of the SA app

    I had the same results yesterday that KRW5927 did above - everything auto-updated to my USB except the VFR sectionals. This is certainly a problem that SA is aware of, and has so far responded inadequately.

    Making your own EMS sensor definitons

    I'm having a bit of trouble adding a sensor (the AFR example listed above, in this case) to my file. I'm opening the SFG file in Excel, and Excel shows the indented sections of the code to be in the next column, and I'm following that for the added sensor and saving it back in the native format...

    Pitch servo always climbs!

    Is there a max airspeed value that the system is trying to protect by pulling up, like it's thinking you are exceeding Vne?

    AFS / AOA Probe with Skyview

    With the calibration routine though, would that automatically induce the polarity change for the pressure gradient as you calibrate the system? Or is it locked in to a positive pressure gradient only?

    Switching calibration sets?

    Ok, so if I understand this correctly, I would need to calibrate for 100LL, export that file and edit it to delete everything but the fuel cal data, and then recalibrate for Mogas, export and edit that as well - then when I want to switch back and forth between them I would simply import that...

    Switching calibration sets?

    Dynon - I've got capacitive senders in my fuel tanks, which have a different response to 100LL versus Mogas and would require recalibration when switching fuels. Is it possible to have a calibration in "standby", maybe as a different file residing on my USB stick, that I could load when I change...

    EMS spikes etc

    Mine will come out of the airplane this afternoon and be headed back to Dynon tomorrow, I sure hope this solves the problem!

    EMS spikes etc

    Dynon - resurrecting an old thread here - I have an EMS box I purchased from you right at the end of 2012, and the airplane is just about buttoned up for inspection and first flight now. I did a comms check yesterday and my EMS showed large spikes in EGT/CHT indications when transmitting on the...

    SkyView Nav Radio

    Dynon's autopilot will not couple to an ILS or GPS approach unless it comes from a certified receiver. It will certainly couple to a non-certified receiver for enroute horizontal guidance, but will not give vertical guidance which is required for an ILS/GPS approach. Vertical guidance coupled to...

    SkyView Nav Radio

    I guess it would be nice, but since Skyview is not a certified navigator it can't be used to couple the autopilot onto an ILS received through that NAV radio, which (IMHO) is a major issue. With GPS nav there is really no longer a major need for VOR nav via the receiver and ILS becomes it's...

    How much time to wire Skyview

    If you have to ask... ;D ;D

    How much time to wire Skyview

    I didn't specifically track my hours on the panel wiring itself, but I would estimate 100-120 hours is what I have in my flight instrument wiring, and I built all my own cables except for the Ethernet connection. I've got dual 10" Skyviews with all the goodies plus a 430W. Agreed - but the...

    I am SO sick of the SA app

    I just went and found the download folder on my C: drive (under AppData/Roaming in my case) and deleted the entire "Seattle Avionics" folder after uninstalling the database manager and formatting the memory card. From there, a completely fresh install and download worked fine.

    keep alive?

    The clock resets on GPS acquisition based on signal timestamp, doesn't it? So no need for the keep-alive on the clock...

    Certified or not GPS for IFR

    Legal IFR existed before GPS, remember.... A certified GPS is needed if you intend to use a GPS IFR approach, or to feed the navigational guidance to an autopilot. If you are using a non-certified GPS you cannot legally fly the IFR GPS approach but the other approaches are still available to...

    Electronic stability and protection for Skyview

    Nope, not unless the software also can squawk 7700 and get the airplane down and stopped on a runway for medical attention. We don't typically have autothrottles installed on small aircraft, so the incapacitated pilot is still done for as soon as it runs out of fuel. I'm not saying the feature...

    Database sharing in Dual Skyview system?

    I've got dual 10" Skyviews in my panel with the current V13 software and an Ethernet link between them. Which databases are shared via the Ethernet, and which ones require individual loading on each screen? Basemap Aviation/Obstacle High res terrain Low res terrain Very Low res terrain Also -...

    I am SO sick of the SA app

    My download worked just fine, finished copying to the USB this morning with just one little problem, and it wasn't related to the SA app. I had my Dynon screen maps on the USB stick also, and had selected ALL areas on the SA app for VFR and IFR Low charts (including foreign) and the...

    CHT and EGT logging question

    On my display, CHT and EGT are displayed as Fahrenheit but in the data logs they are recorded in Celsius - is there a way to change that?

    I am SO sick of the SA app

    New user here - I purchased my subscription and downloaded the new DM this morning, it is indeed slow but since it runs in the background I really don't care about speed. It's been going about 5 hours now and has downloaded, verified, and copied all the airport diagrams and is about a quarter of...
