    Reinforcing rod in concrete, buried power cables, underground pipes and similar factors can be a factor in selecting a spot for compass calibration.

    Pitot Controller Wire Connections

    I agree with Raymo that it might be worth while to check the wire size not so much for current load as for voltage drop over the distance. I have a slightly different application where I have a 16 awg wire going to a 22 awg on a non-Dynon heated pitot and asked how that worked out - the...

    Upgraded feature request - glide ring

    Interesting idea. Would you want obstacles (like towers or tall buildings on hills or high tension lines) included? I'm thinking of use at night or in limited visibility. Hah! I'd have cleared that ridge if the cursed Great Wall of Chine had not been in the way. :) Would one have to have...

    New feature request: Copy flight plan

    OK, I understand now. You would fly IFR on the SkyView, you just wouldn't admit it. How silly of me to not have thought of that before.

    New feature request: Copy flight plan

    Does this mean for some period of time you would be flying on an IFR flight plan without using approved IFR equipment?

    ADSB In and FLARM

    Read Skyview System Installation Guide Revision AF page 4-24 for a discussion. I'm not sure - aren't there several versions of FLARM in Europe?

    How to copy flight plan

    If you save a copy of the flight plan on the GTN, are you not able to retrieve it after the restart? This does not answer your question about copying it to the SV, but may be a way to quickly retrieve the original flight plan if it is saved in the GTN catalog.

    Transponder Serial Number?

    I'm sorry to hear of your challenge. Sometimes a cell phone camera (even shooting "blind") or borescope or even a mirror on a stick has helped me.

    What Garmin Subscription Should I get???

    And for those of us who don't use Foreflight? What would it cost to buy the iPad and Foreflight compared with Seattle Avionics or some other alternative?

    Checklist made easily and uploaded to HDX

    Will knock-off spreadsheet programs such as LibreOffice work? I guess I can check that, just wondered if anyone knew up front.

    EMS data log

    I use LibreOffice instead of Microsoft. That does not answer your question about how to analyze it, but you can at least read it.

    SkyView D1000T Radio on Top Line

    I have 2 SV D1000T and 2 SV C25 radio panels. As I've said in another post, the standby frequency on the radio panels can be hard to read. I can get one radio to display on the Top Line of the SV D1000T. To do that I have to check YES and also have to designate a primary radio. I tried and...

    Radio Entry Readability

    The radio panel changes a little - very little - when I change the DIM function on the D1000T display. Dynon says maybe it's as good as it's going to get (I sent them photos) and they put their engineers on it.
