If you want to fly IFR approaches, you’ll need a subscription for their database. Seattle will get you charts. If you have a source for other charts (tablet, paper), Seattle isn’t necessary, but they are nice to have.

You might also check your autopilot servos on the ground. My aileron-servo sheer screw broke and the AP behaved a bit like this in the air. It seemed to be tracking sometimes, but other times not. It is obvious on the ground when your pinky finger can easily fight against the servo.

I also have "UNKNOWN_DATE_TIME" in my logs. Version 15.4.3.

I also have "UNKNOWN_DATE_TIME" in my logs. Version 15.4.3. Emailed support.

I have a USB cable with a panel mount that failed on me. Worked fine for a while. Troubleshooting, I can get it to work by pulling out the plug slightly from the back of the Skyview. If fully inserted, no joy. Cheap cables not to the right spec, maybe? Something to consider. It was USB 2.

What is the purpose for the 60A breaker on the alternator anyway? (Other than everyone seems to have one?) Is there a real risk that one's alternator will ever produce more current than advertised?

I too would be interested in learning more. The HITS doesn't match LPV approach paths exactly. (GNS-430W via ARINC) P.S. I noted they also didnt show at all in a hold.

If it helps cure the bug, leaving the VPX screen and then returning makes the lines appear normal again.

I see this on mine too and hope for a fix.

I flew the ellipse and managed to navigate and even land safely. I actually vote to keep the ellipse (or at least retain it as a user-selected option). I agree the increased size of the turn-rate indicator and the top heading area is a nice improvement that most people may not have considered...

Is there a way to navigate to a runway threshold with version 15 other than Direct-To? E.g. In an existing Skyview flight plan, select a particular runway at the pre-existing flight-plan destination airport?

Did the QWERTY keyboard option disappear in version 15? I see the new (fancier) layout for keying in waypoints, but even though I've selected QWERTY (vs. ABCD) in the setup menu, it is always ABCD, not QWERTY. Bug?

Take a disc--a round cupholder will do (as would an old DG/HSI steam gauge lying around). Hold it vertically so 12 o'clock (or 360 degrees) is at the top. Tilt it forward slightly (away from you) so you are looking at the face at a slight angle (as if the airplane you could draw in the middle of...

My understanding is that upon a complete failure of one ADAHRS, the other automatically becomes the primary and is relied on for presenting PFD information. And in the face of present (i.e. not a total failure), but inconsistent attitude data between the two ADAHRS, Skyview merely reports the...

For touch screens, what if the vector changed to the two X/Y components with a tap (with two corresponding numerical values)? (See the G1000 implementation)

There are some times when it would be handy to have an alert based on the existence of two, independent factors. (Sort of like the Canopy Open + High RPM (or was it IAS?) alarm that exists now). Specifically, I was thinking about an alarm when OAT is below X degrees and the Pitot Heat is OFF...

An iPad and SV's wifi (USB) dongle would do the trick. Add the approach to your foreflight route and then send it to SV. Plus, the iPad gives you a backup for paper charts, and GPS, etc.

I'd recommend updating the Skyview install manual. Page 12-7 of Revision W says to use "GAMA 429" which is probably why all of us 430 owners were missing holds, until now.
