    Skyview Strange Windspeed and Wind Direction Indications

    The two primary things that will affect wind speed indications are the magnetic calibration for the ADAHRS and the zero-airspeed calibration.

    Skyview will not boot up with Backup Battery Installed

    Most, if not all, of the Dynon staff are at the Oshkosh event this week and won't be back in the office until early next week. Please be patient and give them a few days to get home and settled.

    CHT and EGT spikes

    This was a diagnosed problem with a defined fix some time ago, implemented by filtering the EMS inputs. Dynon tech can assist you.

    Stall Warning not working

    Same experience with my RV9A.

    SV-AP Panel Breaker Rating

    You seem to be asking an awful lot of basic questions for a subject matter expert who has built 4 RV's already (among others).

    Vertical Nav on a Precision Approach

    Once you have a glideslope available on the HSI, then the VNAV function is enabled and you can select it - prior to that the VNAV function is disabled (greyed out and unselectable) because it has nothing to follow. It will not follow a "step-down" without vertical guidance being received either...

    Fuel at destination

    +1 for changing it to destination. I've been doing a work-around to accomplish the same goal, would be nice if it was directly calculated. Dynon - note here that nobody has asked for an ADDITIONAL line of data - we don't necessarily want or need both fuel at waypoint and fuel at destination...

    "Internal Server Error" on this site

    Same here using Chrome, and only on this site.

    Auto Pilot - Simplified or Advanced?

    You can do that without the control panel as well. Using the Expert mode on the screen itself, once the AP is engaged and holding altitude, you can change the altitude bug and nothing happens until you select "Nose Up" or "Nose Down" as appropriate, then it will go to the newly selected altitude.

    Flight planning

    I also find it useful sometimes to use my 430W to drive my HSI (and autopilot) and then decouple the map/HSI lock so that I can use my Skyview map function to plot a course to a different location, or see distance to a location, or other miscellaneous stuff. As noted though, this is a recipe for...

    Automatic Pilot Roll Mode Upon Engaging Autopilot

    I'll second this - I understand the logic behind holding the current roll attitude, but I would really like to have the ability to have a default roll attitude angle that, if exceeded then it is maintained, and if not then it commands to zero. "Level" function will drive the wings level but also...

    Transponder

    Did it work prior to this? How long? Was a temporary problem or did it stay? Did you pull a Diagnostic file within 1 hour (panel time) of getting the message?

    Auto Pilot Adjustments

    Huh, how 'bout that. I had noticed this same issue and just figured that was the way the autopilot was going to fly it, it does catch up after a while but certainly not quickly. I'll be happy to see an improvement in that behavior.

    Seattle Avionics download issue - anyone else?

    On the latest set of data from Seattle Avionics, on my system the VFR Sectional Charts for Mexico regions Sierra Madre Del Sur, Tehuantepec, and Yucatan will not recognize as legitimate files and it keeps trying to download them again every hour when the datamanager checks for updates. I've...

    Airspace proximity warning

    I can see the utility of this, as long as it can be disabled or configured.

    Jeppesen & Skyview

    Correct, the Skyview is not a certified IFR receiver, so it cannot command the autopilot to fly an IFR approach. You must use another certified IFR receiver (I use a Garmin 430W) that feeds it's data to the Skyview, and then the Skyview will command the autopilot to follow that certified-source...

    G-meter alert malfunction

    Last night I pulled the datalogs (attached here) and the mystery only got a little thicker. The event in question occurred at 21:11:30 system time on 1-13-19 and lasted 11 seconds, with twelve "G" announcements before I reset the screen. The air was smoother than I initially thought, the datalog...

    G-meter alert malfunction

    Yes, and it appeared normal, indicating some minor turbulence and fluctuating +/- 0.3 G from 1.0 during the continuous alerting.

    G-meter alert malfunction

    Today while goofing off locally, I encountered a few minor jolts in the air from turbulence and got a "G's" alert from Skyview Classic. That's nothing unusual, it happens often - but this time the alert latched on and would not reset in smooth air. I was forced to power off and back on my...
