    D100 + Garmin Aera 500 serial connection

    Today we finally made Garmin Aera 500 to work EFIS D-100 with the right cradle. It's coded #010-11385-03 on the box, but the mount on its back bares part # 011-02023-22 - differs only in the last digit with the previous mount (2 instead of 0). Both the oscilloscope and hyperterminal showed the...

    D100 + Garmin Aera 500 serial connection

    Yeah, I read a thread on this forum, where this way was used to catch the GPS problem, I did try it with an old laptop (from the year 2001) - for some reason hyperterminal can't open the COM port under W2K, opens it in W98, but nothing in there. TeraTerm also doesn't show anything on the wire...

    Heading overshoot in HDG mode (D100+AP74)

    Hello, thanks for the advise! I processed and uploaded 6 out of 9 episodes of the in-flight video. The 3 remaining I will do later tonight, but to my opinion their results are worse / less practical. None of the servos slips during AP-controlled flight, this is definitely ruled out. How would...

    D100 + Garmin Aera 500 serial connection

    We are having hard time trying to make Garmin Aera 500 talk to Dynon D-100 over serial connection. We don't have HS-34, so the connection has to be done directly to Dynon D-100 unit. We connected the yellow wire from the Dynon-supplied D-100 harness (goes to pin 22 of the DB25 connector) to the...

    Heading overshoot in HDG mode (D100+AP74)

    The pilot flew the plane with the default settings of the pitch and roll servo. The altitude was held very well, but the plane constantly wandered around the set heading bug. I suggested to increase the sensitivity and flew with the pilot next flight. Initial settings are shown on the photo. The...

    Heading overshoot in HDG mode (D100+AP74)

    Hi, thanks a lot for the prompt reply to my e-mail request and account approval on this forum! I decided to continue here, just in case anyone would need it in the future. We've installed D100+AP74+D10A+roll and pitch servos to a twin engine amphibian flying boat. The EDC-D10A is installed in...
