Was there any action taken about this? My Seattle Avionics ChartData Manager says I have Sectional Charts expiring 11/11/15 and I can't (or don't know how to) download the next cycle yet (at 11:30 pm on Nov 10.).

Va speed is shown on Skyview's airspeed tape despite weight's affect on it. I'd be pleased to also be able to set a glide speed. It need not vary by weight, but it'll be a close approximation based on weights typically flown. Same could apply to the range rings discussed. Approximate information...

Nice feature by AFS. It would be a good first step on Skyview to be able to set a bug for a best glide speed on the airspeed tape. I miss that feature on my prior EFIS.

What if it only appeared when another chart was being displayed (as Foreflight operates)? E.g. your displayed approach plate will automatically switch to a taxi diagram upon landing. This does not conflict with your above-stated concerns, but might satisfy the original poster.

Or better yet, get three Skyview screens and a 650/430W: best of all worlds. And they fit in an RV-10. Your passenger can have their own screen set up how they like and you still have plenty of screen space for maps and synthetic vision. With Skyview, the big 750 is a wa$te in all cases IMHO.

A second event 5 tonight--same display. :'(

I had a System Event 5 message tonight on one of my displays. I followed the instructions, but never got any indication what the problem was. Curious. Any way to provide more details? "Not an emergency" is somewhat reassuring, but makes me wonder if IMC will be a problem.

A setup mode as simple is disabling temporarily Skyview's self-calibration, while showing baro settings and both ADAHRS altitude indications would ease IFR checks (and cut time by a large percentage). I'd like to just risk having attitude off for a short period on the next flight except that...

Agreed. Powering on and off really added substantial time to complete the checks. A simple wizard to walk through the required steps would be great!

Is there a written procedure for the IFR checks specifically on a (dual ADAHRS) Skyview system?    Pages 5-12 to 5-14 in the Install manual give the "warm up" and "power off between pressure changes" advice. But because this will be the shop's first Dynon pitot-static test, it would be great to...

An Email response from Dynon (on the holiday even) said what I want is not presently available.  :( I'd love the ability to spread different EMS items across two screens (with different engine items on Screen 1 than on Screen 2).

I'd like to split my EMS data across two screens (20% each) rather than use 40% on one single screen.  (So I can enjoy 80% PFD and 80% Map, instead of 50% PFD and 100% Map or vice versa.) Is this possible? Page 7-61 of the rev. R install manual says, "Settings for SV-EMS-220/221 pin mapping...

Would I be crazy to suggest that the bar could be CHT and the line EGT?  After all, absolute temp for CHT is important, but not EGT (where relative temps are more important).  Is this just because JPI and others have always done it this way? Any chance for this to be a user-selectable option?

If I change the Flight Plan source on the Map page to an ARINC/430W to see my IFR-GPS flight plan route on the map, will the map page then only update at 1 hz?  If so, is there a way to benefit from the improved 5 hz position updates of the Dynon GPS puck, while still displaying the 430 flight...

The cable was an off-the-shelf, manufactured, panel-mount USB extension pluged into one of the 2 ports in the rear. 12 inches long.  A similar (but different manufacturer) 18" one worked fine in that screen.  The 12" one that didn't work (with the same stick) worked in two other screens.  I...

Just getting my 10" touches up and working. One screen still has version 10 so I was going to update to match the newer version 11 screens. But, screen 1 did not recognize my USB and cable.  I moved the cable to the other input jack, no joy.  I swapped cables, and a different cable worked. ...
