    Autopilot in RANS S7S

    My friend is building an S20 and as of the middle of February, 2016, the tech support guy at RANS said they are starting to produce mounting kits for the AP servos. Now, whether they are for the Garmin or the Dynon, I do not know, but you could call RANS and find out. I suspect it's a Dynon...

    Re: Pitot Boom Construction

    Got a call-back from Dynon and it was a phone issue which has been resolved. Problem has also been resolved. Thanks for the support.

    ID EGT Display?

    For airplanes with more than one EGT but not an EGT for each cylinder, can one ID them? E.g., the Rotax 912 I fly has an EGT on #2 and #3. Instead of L and R I'd like to name the 2 and 3. Can I do that?

    Nice feature I'd use.

    Wanted: Cruise speed mark on the ASI tape

    Could you put a Va adjusted for weight on the speed tape? How about IAS markings for those that use IAS for Vne?

    Reminders?

    I like the suggestion. I'd also like to be able to completely shut it off if desired. One thing to think about is the discussion it might generate by passengers not aware of aviation issues if it pops up. There are things that are legal and even OK that might cause unwarranted concern by...

    3 axis

    It is my experience that the FD CT series with it's long, flat tanks, needs considerable attention to yaw in cruise or one tank will drain faster, resulting in imbalance, and one tank can have fuel below the port.

    Any HUD Developments?

    I'd very much like to have AOA on an HUD. Are there any HUD applications planned?

    Checklist page

    I took the Dynon Skyview course at Oshkosh and found it very good. Kirk implied that the checklist feature is bubbling closer to the top and may be available in the not too distant feature. He showed us that when a display value is entered, a warning can be popped up. For example, if one has...

    Fuel level configuration

    I'm joining this discussion late. Do I understand that if there is an odd shaped tank, the Skyview can be programmed to provide the right fuel level reading? I'm toying with the idea of adding a capacitive fuel gauge system to my airplane.

    Dealing With Paper Install Documents

    I'm looking at a ream :) of paper documentation for various Dynon products, some of which I will use for frequent reference, some will be used once (hopefully) and then stored and most of which may be superseded. What have you found to be successful in physically handling and managing the...

    Which Documentation?

    I have a SkyView that I bought in 2011, upgraded recently, and am just now getting ready to install. I bought an additional SkyView just recently. Can I use the current or modern installation instructions for both or do I need to use the right manual for each?

    Carbon Fiber and Avionics

    Is there reference information available that gives information on the electrical and RF frequency characteristics of carbon fiber as used in aircraft such as the Flight Design? My question has to do with VHF and HF comm frequencies, transponders, grounds and so forth. If Dynon has some...

    Checklists?

    I support a Skyview checklist.

    USB Ports

    Are the USB ports used for anything besides updates? For example, would a USB connection be how one obtained data logging information? I'm thinking that one per screen might be useful in that case, and I might put one for each screen right on the panel so I could access the data readily.

    Remote AOA indicator

    This is from Wikipedia, so is somewhat suspect, but it summarizes one of my interests in AOA indicators and why I'd thought one in an optimum field of view might be useful. "In takeoff and landing operations from short runways, such as Naval Aircraft Carrier operations and STOL back country...

    AOA boom add on

    This looks like the bent type that mounts under the wing. I was asking about the boom pitot tube that projects straightforward, as with the Flight Design planes.
