    D10A & HS34 DSAB dropout

    " For some reason the DSAB is dropping the HS34 out of the network on a seemingly random basis. If I reconfigure it sometimes comes back. If I turn the D10A off and reconfigure it always comes back...for awhile. This is happening with the airplane static so I know it isn't a vibration issue...

    Separate Power Wires?

    FWIW - there are 'basics' with wiring installations. 1. use only low loss antenna cables 2. use shilded or twisted wire when it's called out for in manuals 3. ALL audio and radio grounds should go to one point. I've mixed (when I had no choice) cabling on many aircraft and have no 'issues'...

    Recurring Remote Compass issue

    (finally re-pinned both connectors and "squeezed" the female pins, thought I had it licked.) PP That's what I'd be checking again - I recently found a bad Dsub connector, it wasn't allowing the sockets to 'click' home so it was free to move out when mating to the radio - after 7 years this is...

    Recommended Thresholds with Jabiru 3300A

    Casi CHT - redline 175C, Cruise 150C max EGT - I'd use the temp you get in cruise (average of all cyl) and add 50C to that to get a max figure. You are really only looking for trends as the mixture isn't variably adjusted anyway. Others may have differing ideas. HTH Jake J

    Two tachometers installation With Jabiru 3300A

    1. correct 2. yes, but fused - I find the 100k ohm size gives best rpm stability. Above is easy to do - that way if one method of rpm stops you still have the other - it's called redundancy ;) Jake J

    Remote compass and ADAHRS

    darinh This is not meant to 'flame' just trying to help. I install avionics and never had an issue with the Dynon magnetometers in rag & tube aircraft - you may like to revisit your proposed installation ;) (The magnatometer does not function so well in a chromoly fuselage like in a Kitfox...

    Two tachometers installation With Jabiru 3300A

    I'd use the transducer wires to run the 2nd tacho and use one of the alternator output wires as the primary D120 tach - you may need a resistor on this wire (Dynon says it's usually not necessary) if the rpm is erratic or try swapping the wires first if that is the case. HTH Jake J

    New SkyView Products at Oshkosh

    Brantel It's more than just WAAS as the Tso 145/146 has FD&E (fault detection and exclusion of 'bad' satellites) something not likely to be seen in a handheld Gps. Over here we don't get a useable WAAS signal, and won't until a geostationary satellite is overhead - mooted cost is $100m so...

    DS Does the "GND" (as in Ground mode) button indicate you plan to have a TCAD/TCAS type display soon ? Jake J

    aux ammeter install

    This topic has been discussed before however why not have the volts warn light working for one and amps for the other alternator ? Or have a biased switch for #2 and momentary switch it to #1 as well as lo volt warn for #1. This is my solution for the installs I've done ;) My .02 cents Jake J

    From the brochure - Note, full ADS-B Out compliance requires a TSO-C146A GPS (WAAS) to be connected. I'd suggest you need to read the info carefully IF you need to satisfy the compliance for ADSB OUT, ie the "w" series Garmin units and the 480. Jake J

    No RPM Reading

    Tim If you're sure it's setup correctly I'd save the settings you have and download the pre configured sensor map file for your engine - answer has got to be something you're not seeing ;) Jake J

    Skyview Boot Problem

    "mass memory corrupted or missing, contact Dynon support". The above message just happened to a customers SV (vers 2.5) and the SV stayed powered on after ships power turned off - temporarily removing backup power and then rebooting SV seems to have fixed the problem. HTH Jake J

    Simple Suggestion for SV + Autopilot

    Peter You probably don't want to hear this - I've used pushrod activation in the Sportsman/Glastar, works real good. Jake J
