Foreflight will automatically prompt you if you want to upload flight plan to the IFD if you are at an airport and connected. If you choose to upload it will go into the IFD flight plan list. Not the active plan. Make sure you have IFD at version 10.3.1. Kurt

Yes. Set your IFD as a remote to the Skyview network. See IFD instructions on connecting as remote device to Stratus. Follow this except substitute Skyview for Stratus. Once you connect you will get messages on IFD to authorize the IP address trying to connect. Connect your IPad to Skyview...

The Avidyne can connect to the Skyview network as a remote device. Foreflight IPad also connects as a remote device to Skyview. Foreflight will now automatically detect the IFD on the Skyview network and prompt you if you want to transfer the flight plan after you connect. No need to switch...

The Seattle avionics databases can be uploaded into the Skyview displays via Slingshot feature. Search the Seattle Avionics web site for details. I think you need to be a fly-q subscriber.

Do you have DYNON battery backups on displays? Kurt

I recently submitted a bug report to ForeFlight because it does not update the METARS, Lightning or NOTAMs once I am in flight. Starts off ok but once i get a couple hundred miles away from starting point i notice METARS are unavailable. All these products are displayed perfectly on the...

Flew today with 2 tablets running Foreflight. Skyview version 16.6.0 running on 4th gen HDX. Had several WIFI lost communication notices on Foreflight. so, problem is still out there when you have two iPads connected. Alarm was a nuisance, no impact to operation. Just tap the pop up to...

Thanks for making this. BTW, it will not save if using Firefox? Clicking "Save Checklist" does nothing. Works good with MS Edge. Kurt

I don’t know if this is your problem but I experienced the same issue when I swapped in a PS Engineering audio panel when my Garmin audio panel was being serviced. The Skyview audio is pinned to a unswitched input. This worked great with the Garmin audio panel. But with the PS engineering the...

This is so skyview can set comm frequencies. This is optional and most likely not wired. Kurt

Check your ARINC settings in Skyview and on the IFD. See section 12-5 in the install manual. Also see "Third-Party Device Connection and Configuration - Reference Guide, Rev B" in the download section. It has all the settings required. Page 14 has the IFD settings. ALLOW AUTO SWITCH: YES...

Today I had on two occasions Foreflight reported “Skyview has disconnected “. I had two tablets connected to my single screen HDX system. The error self cleared in a few seconds. So, I think 16.5.2 still not 100%, at least if you have two tablets running Foreflight. kurt

I have the HDX 10 inch. I recently upgraded from the classic touch to HDX. I had issues with the WiFi on the classic, but they got much worse when I upgraded to HDX. Especially when you have 2 tablets connected to Skyview. But version 16.5.2 fixed all the issues I had with the HDX.

I have been happy with the WiFi since 16.5.2. I have used it about 10+ flights including two people with Foreflight running and my IFD-540 connected to skyview. I had one time it did not connect. The fix was to stop wifi on the tablet and re-enable it. That fixed the connection. Other than...

I renamed the .STL by adding .txt to the end. See if you can use this by downloading and removing the .txt extension. kurt

This forum will not allow me to post .STL, .STEP, etc files. Kurt

Had a friend print a spacer for the autopilot and knob panel for my HDX system. Now all the panel bezels are the same thickness. Made with black ABS plastic. Looks like it belongs now. Kurt

Here is what I have mine set to. I fly IFR and VFR. I have an IFD540 for primary navigation. This works out perfect for me.

You are correct. I allow it to acquire GPS and then download the user files and they have the date. But this is something different from the classic Skyview. i

I recently upgraded my Classic to the HDX and noticed when downloading the User Files the data on the files is 12/31/1979 and in the title it has "UNKNOWN_DATE" where it normally has current date. This started happening with the HDX install. I have a single HDX1100 with the backup battery. I...
