    Seattle Avionics plates on Moving Map?

    The answer is yes; you can display the geolocated approach plate on the moving map. it works pretty well. IIRC, the steps are; Info, enter the airport identifier, select the Procedures tab, then select the approach and then select display. It is something like that. The key is that the...

    Skyview HDX: Will it display Nav/Map Data from a Garmin 175 with an expired Database?

    Pos 1 is reserved for the native Dynon GPS2020 if installed. The older SV-GPS-250 if retained should be POS2. This can be found in the Installation Manual on page 8-7. If you have an external IFR GPS like the GPS 175 via the ARINC box, assign it to a blank HSI source in setup and label with a...

    ILS Glide Slope is alive but no change

    The Archer antenna is tuned for VOR/ Loc. it so happens that glideslope is a multiple of the LOC and the antenna receives it fine. This is what I have in my airplane connected to an SL30. The GNS430 has separate inputs for GS and VOR/LOC. You will need a splitter to connect to the GS input.

    Shielded or twisted wire for yaw and pitch servos and where to ground the servos

    Just to note, M27500 shielded wire with multiple conductors, has the conductors twisted inside of the shield. Most of the EMI issues from data lines can be handled by twisting the data pairs.

    Skid slip ball going crazy

    That is an ADAHRS function. Odd behavior.

    Some ADS-B targets not showing.

    I have seen this happen. Can’t offer much more though. It never seems to drop nearby traffic though.

    “Too many WiFi devices”

    I have had this problem since upgrading to HDX. Dynon has a troubleshooting file that lets you see what devices are connected and the status. Email customer support with your problem and they should sent it to you.

    Tach fluctuation

    I had checked wiring before posting, with no fault found. Knock on wood, my problem seems to have self healed. We all know that doesn’t actually happen, so waiting for it to show up again. And yes, my engine isn’t going from 2000 RPM to 3500 RPM and then back in less than a second. 😳

    Hum in headset after wrapping panel

    I often witness testing of avionics in the lab environment for EMI and audio interference. Generally it is essential that the equipment cases are grounded to the airframe, typically with a DC resistance of 2.5 milliohms or less. I am guessing that when you wrapped the panel you lost the common...

    Tach fluctuation

    I just experienced the same thing with HDX. Very erratic and large rpm variations. I have a Mag on the left and EI on the right. The mag is input to the EMS via the 30k resistor called for in the manual. The EMS is connected directly. All have worked flawlessly for several years. First...

    EGT CHT readings false on #1 cylinder

    the EGT thermocouples can fail like this. I would swap thermocouples and see if the problem follows.

    Dual Wifi connections and HDX

    When I migrated from Skyview Classic to HDX, I didn’t anticipate loosing the ability to connect 2 Ipads. 95% of the time I fly with a second person who has an Ipad and connects to share flight plans and ADS-B in data. As a standard part of my CRM, that person is doing traffic watch and...

    VS 0 mode

    You don’t mention what aircraft, but in the Exp world we just tune the AP to get the desired Alt hold result. You need to find a happy place between calm air and turbulent air. It will hold altitude plus or minus 25 ft in calm air and when tuned reasonably, plus or minus 150 ft in moderate...

    Skyview HDX WiFi Dongle and ForeFlight

    I had a drop out problem until I used a usb extender and placed the dongles where they could see under the panel to the cabin. Then no disconnects and I have 2 Ipads connected every flight (my copilot has one).

    SA database problem with cycle 2401 - updated (resolved by SA)

    Just thought I would up my earlier post. I fixed my problem after realizing that my Chartdata setting was set to update changed items only. To fix the problem I deleted the Chartdata data files in file explorer and deleted the SA files on the memory sticks, then downloaded the data again and...

    SA database problem with cycle 2401 - updated (resolved by SA)

    I downloaded the 2401 cycle yesterday, Feb 3 and installed today and flew. I still have the problem for some, but not all plates. My home airport (KFDK) is one that is affected. How did SA mess this up?

    Skyview HDX ADS-B Traffic disappears then reappears

    Important to note that we are talking about TIS which is being phased out, not TIS -B, which is a part of ADS-B

    Skyview HDX ADS-B Traffic disappears then reappears

    FYI TIS is being phased out at the ATC level, and may only have spotty coverage at this point in any case.
