I would imagine your GTN650 is connected to the HDX via a serial input, whereas your Dynon radio would just connect via the Network (all very simple to do). The SV-Intercom can handle two radios, so just a matter of adding the Dynon radio as Radio 2. What you can't do is have two radios...

You're better off buying a Trig TY91. Takes up less space in the panel, has a built intercom, exactly the same performance as the Dynon radio (which is made by Trig anyway) and can hook in nicely to an HDX etc for almost every function the Dynon radio has. It would be great if Dynon...

The wind is crazy because the poor computer doesn't know the heading. In flight calibration is easy and will solve this problem.

Really sounds like an earth problem to me. That would appear to be the common denominator. I don't know if your PTT runs back to the same ground as your intercom but that is certainly where I'd be looking.

Yes. Have a look at the screen layout editor information on page 7-90 of the SkyView installation manual. It's very easy.

Hi Roland. I do not think the ADSB 472 receives Flarm. It will receive ADSB traffic and traffic rebroadcast (where ground stations are available) but Flarm is on a different frequency and so you need a separate receiver. The separate receiver can be piped to your SkyView/HDX via a serial...

I think the earlier ones (mine) just has a battery fault on or off but the current (sorry) batteries seem to have various timed flashes to indicate differing faults. Page 6 and 28 are worth a look. EarthX Manual

I think you'd be wasting your time and money. The brand new RV8 I was involved with had capacitance sensors and we couldn't get those calibrated to any great accuracy. They were replaced with resistive floats and those were no good either. I don't know if it's the tank shape & dihedral but you...

Is the problem with the engine running? I ask because when I was setting mine up and running on the battery I found some of the touch functions didn't work (presumably as the battery depleted a bit). With the engine running it was fine and has been so ever since, engine on or off. I would...

Just what Carl said; Boy Scout compass or iPhone, it just needs the 4 points and you can do that by pushing down on the tail and spinning it round. No need for an airfield compass rose. The air calibration gets it accurate.

It wouldn't make any difference to your current set up. All it would do is send the ADSB data to your Dynon in addition to what it does now. So, yes, you can get ADSB to your GTN/Pilot app as you do now and have ADSB to your Dynon via the RS232 output of the GTX345 to a serial port on the Dynon...

Why not just use on the RS232 outputs on the back of the GTX345 and wire it into a serial port on your Dynon? It will allow you to show traffic. I'm not sure about weather as, with the lacklustre infrastructure we have in the UK, I don't receive that data so can't be sure it would get displayed.

Being aluminium, something like an RV or Zenith has the advantage of being able to use the built-in magnetometer capabilities of the ADAHRS. In aircraft such as the EuroFOX or Kitfox, with a welded steel fuselage, the built-in magnetometer is terrible and a remote unit is required. It is almost...

There's no requirement for the AP panel in order to enable expert mode. I use expert and have no AP panel. I think it would be slightly more convenient, on occasions, to have the AP panel but I'm quite content to use the autopilot without it. I'll normally set the altitude target before takeoff...

AoA warning works on the Critical Angle of Attack. It doesn't give two hoots where your flaps are. Flaps up, stall at X degrees Critical Angle of Attack, flaps down, stall at the same X degrees Critical Angle of Attack......which just so happens to be a lower IAS. The AoA works on differential...

Thank you for your comments, 362PC. I think if we go down the Dynon route then we'll keep it more simple and have just the one HDX display. Doubtful we'll have anything like the ARINC kit, as it'll never be used for IMC approaches etc. It is good to know that Foreflight can be used with Dynon...

That’s great info, thank you. Have you got the latest update and WI-FI dongle in your HDX? I’m not trying to be a salesman 😁 but just interested if you’re getting the drop outs with an older or newer set up. I’m no expert at all on Dynon WI-FI, as I use it for route transfer from SkyDemon (UK...

Hi All, I am in discussion with one of our customers about his avionics fit and the question of whether he goes for Garmin G3 or the Dynon HDX. As he is planning on doing some extended flying throughout Europe and the USA he is minded to equip his iPad with Foreflight instead of the more...

Inflight Tuning

What was the MGL configuration for the sensor? If it's an active sensor then it shouldn't be too much trouble. Look for the sensor set up in the MGL menu and find out if it says something like 0-5v or 0.5-4.5v. It looks like it has one wire to it but I suspect you've taken one off the top of...
