Truly, we are our own worst enemy.

I was one of the beta testers for 6.6.0.2, and it is considerably faster for the downloads to the USB sticks, at least using USB 3.1 sticks. One other "feature" of the new software also comes with a bug that has not yet been fixed. For Dynon users, the program will automatically download the...

HA! You just became a beta-tester. Welcome to the group :cool:

You've got some voltage drops (likely poor connections) some where in your system, and you are sensing voltage at different points for different devices. Time for wire chasing and connection cleanup, that's always fun.

The backup battery will also power the EMS, so you keep all your engine instrumentation.

The hub is not intended for power/ground use on the servo's. You'll need to split out the power and ground separately from the DB9 connectors, pin 2 for ground and pin 7 for power. See section 10 of the installation manual. Pin 3 should also be split out separately and combined with the other...

The basemap file only needs to be installed once - it is very rarely updated. The current version is from 2013. Once you load that into the HDX you don't need to keep it on the USB, and don't need to load it again unless the basemap gets updated. The 16.0.8 software update, likewise - once you...

The new vaporware from SA has been released to a few beta-testers, myself included. Overall I don't see much change except they fixed a bug that was granting access to FlyQ users to all other types of data - so they were only covering their own butt revenue-wise on this software change. There...

Hah! Corrected....

Update today - Canada is moving to space-based ADSB next year. https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/canada-phasing-in-space-based-ads-b-starting-in-2023/

And a big safety bonus with that, is that the autopilot will never hand you an aircraft that is significantly out-of-trim and surprise you with high stick forces. Think about having the AP fly an IFR approach down to minimums - then you break out at 200 feet and kill the autopilot to hand-fly...

I does in my panel, IFD440 and HDX.

Same here - for myself and Bill Repucci, we are both long time beta testers. Volunteered for it, were told we would be contacted "next week" and now two months later, crickets.... I have been vocal in the past about the bleeding abortion that the current SA software is. I would dearly love to...

And yet, when you use it everyday (or at least more days than not), it all seems perfectly comfortable.

As mentioned, this is a groundspeed referenced number, but still handy to have in flight. See my bottom right corner. The range you see there is not incorrect, I have long range tanks with 68 total gallons on my RV-9A.

You are obviously a Seattle Avionice fanboy intent on spreading the glory - care to tell us what position you hold within their company?

When you click the "HELP" button on the newest software, it goes into detail about how to set up a USB for use and tips/tricks on getting the best service from the manager. Included in that text is this gem, emphasis mine below. Dynon SkyView Data Manager normally runs in the background while...

They might have a new chartdata manager, but it still hasn't been released to the general public yet, and it certainly hasn't improved their business. Here we are today only two days from data expiration on the charts, and we still don't have it available for download YET AGAIN.

Or simply fill it up and press "Full" which will default it to the maximum quantity for your aircraft.
