Dynon - resurrecting an old thread here - I have an EMS box I purchased from you right at the end of 2012, and the airplane is just about buttoned up for inspection and first flight now. I did a comms check yesterday and my EMS showed large spikes in EGT/CHT indications when transmitting on the...

Dynon's autopilot will not couple to an ILS or GPS approach unless it comes from a certified receiver. It will certainly couple to a non-certified receiver for enroute horizontal guidance, but will not give vertical guidance which is required for an ILS/GPS approach. Vertical guidance coupled to...

I guess it would be nice, but since Skyview is not a certified navigator it can't be used to couple the autopilot onto an ILS received through that NAV radio, which (IMHO) is a major issue. With GPS nav there is really no longer a major need for VOR nav via the receiver and ILS becomes it's...

If you have to ask... ;D ;D

I didn't specifically track my hours on the panel wiring itself, but I would estimate 100-120 hours is what I have in my flight instrument wiring, and I built all my own cables except for the Ethernet connection. I've got dual 10" Skyviews with all the goodies plus a 430W. Agreed - but the...

I just went and found the download folder on my C: drive (under AppData/Roaming in my case) and deleted the entire "Seattle Avionics" folder after uninstalling the database manager and formatting the memory card. From there, a completely fresh install and download worked fine.

The clock resets on GPS acquisition based on signal timestamp, doesn't it? So no need for the keep-alive on the clock...

Legal IFR existed before GPS, remember.... A certified GPS is needed if you intend to use a GPS IFR approach, or to feed the navigational guidance to an autopilot. If you are using a non-certified GPS you cannot legally fly the IFR GPS approach but the other approaches are still available to...

Nope, not unless the software also can squawk 7700 and get the airplane down and stopped on a runway for medical attention. We don't typically have autothrottles installed on small aircraft, so the incapacitated pilot is still done for as soon as it runs out of fuel. I'm not saying the feature...

I've got dual 10" Skyviews in my panel with the current V13 software and an Ethernet link between them. Which databases are shared via the Ethernet, and which ones require individual loading on each screen? Basemap Aviation/Obstacle High res terrain Low res terrain Very Low res terrain Also -...

My download worked just fine, finished copying to the USB this morning with just one little problem, and it wasn't related to the SA app. I had my Dynon screen maps on the USB stick also, and had selected ALL areas on the SA app for VFR and IFR Low charts (including foreign) and the...

On my display, CHT and EGT are displayed as Fahrenheit but in the data logs they are recorded in Celsius - is there a way to change that?

New user here - I purchased my subscription and downloaded the new DM this morning, it is indeed slow but since it runs in the background I really don't care about speed. It's been going about 5 hours now and has downloaded, verified, and copied all the airport diagrams and is about a quarter of...

Yes, this was on first start and was consistently in the 10%-15% power region. It calculated and displayed values ranging from 2 to 20 percent when it was displayed, but was sporadic about displaying them - and no, I did not have a steady RPM for this run, so I'll put this problem on the shelf...

Yes it does, but it only uses 130 watts output power and is not accepted for ADSB-IN in some areas.

I recently did my first start, ran it three times, and in reviewing the log data I notice that the percent power calculation comes and goes. Sometimes a value is there, and it appears consistent with reality when it's present, but sometimes the value is missing entirely and shows up as blank. It...

Confirmed - I was able to download my logs this morning despite this error message. Let's hope I don't have need of the detailed error log for troubleshooting.

I've got dual Skyviews with the latest software installed, and on bootup one of the messages I see is "Log file corrupted, logging disabled". How can I cure this?

I did this same routine yesterday - it is asking you to cycle the power on the transponder. After I did that everything was happy-happy.

What about the audio to go along with the video? My wife would be a happy camper if she had in-flight entertainment, how is the audio handled?
