    Magnetic or Electric interference

    Did anybody try to clean the power and ground wires with ferrite ferules and or capacitors? A transmitter could put a lot of dirt on those lines. An antenna inside would also nicely radiate into every wire around. Also missing from the list of remedies is checking the antenne with an SWR meter...

    how to connect pitot line to Dynon pitot

    You did ask for it, so you will get my answer ;D Just pressed the plastic hose a few cm down the tube, used one drop of glue. This is not fuel, oil, and it is not rocket science. It's all added weight, costs and trouble. What kind of maintenance do you expect? Regards, Jos Okhuijsen

    serial to usb driver for vista

    It's no problem. Vista is picky, you might have to run the setup as system manager, click right on the setup.exe. Another cable i tried installed the drivers all by itself. Basically there is no difference, if it works on XP it works on Vista, but usually you have to tell Vista many times over...

    Coolant Temperature

    Ok, first flight done, regretfully without proper operating or reliable coolant temperature indication. Remember, this was a bug in the previous firmware version, and should be ironed out in this actual version. Selecting sensor type 4 brings the display to -99. Selecting 3 back once more...

    Coolant Temperature

    120 ohms = 179 deg F on coolant temp (type 4) with a 1K pull-up. 1000 ohms = 76 deg F on coolant temp (type 4) with a 1K pull-up 120 ohms = 171 deg F on coolant temp (type 3) with a 1K pull-up. 1000 ohms = 68 deg F on coolant temp (type 4) with a 1K pull-up Probably a typo but where? If...

    Coolant Temperature

    Strange things happening, as said, -99 if i select sensor type 4, close to true readings with sensor type 3 selected. Pull up is 995 ohms on my meter. I can switch between the almost good and -99 reading just by changing the sensor type back and forth. anything i can do to clarify the situation...

    Coolant Temperature

    Just to add to the confusion: I was running the engine today, and with the coolant sensor on 3, instead of Rotax 4 the temperatures seem to make sense, especially on the higher like 80-100 C range. My blind bat is that sensor 3 is actually 4, and somebody started counting the bits at 1 instead...

    Coolant Temperature

    Just to jump in, same problem here. Close but wrong readings on all other (1,2,3) sensor selections. Resistance 1500 ohm at 16 celcius, just like the oil sensor. Pull-up 1 k from 5 v : reading -99. Please don't let us wait for the next update, can i have a patch please? Regards, Jos Okhuijsen

    June download

Tomorrow i will check the wires, although they are the same as before and eventually try the old...

    June download

    Downloaded the update, started the program, connected the com-port-usb adapter, and the program finds the instrument on the right comport, even before pressing any buttons. Great. But then, any function button pops up a window, asking to connect and power up the dynon, and on ok starts scanning...

    New Display update...

    Hi Dynonsupport, First of all: Dynon was recommended to me by a professional home build build facility, as the only one that works out of the box. And, while i have not seen others, was true for the Flightdek i bought. It works. Sofar so good. If your own goal is to release updates 2 x per...

    New Display update...

    Sure, stable is first prioirty. But maybe smaller steps? It would make a lot of folks like me a lot happier. Apart from better screens ect, problems i have now: No coolant temp because the rotax sensor works as cht (aux input) but is not an option on coolant temp No fuel pressure, the UMA diff...

    about heading calculation in polar regions

    Just stumbled over this old thread, and living above the polar circle- that's arctic region eh? It's simple really, you can use a wrist watch as a compass 24 hrs a day. The sun is at 0000 at 000, at 0600 at 090 at 1200 at 180, at 1800 at 270 and always low enough in the sky to give a good...
