    Thanks for the information on the "Robust Protection". I do recall reading that however sorry my question was ambiguous...I guess I was more concerned about my EMS pin being connected directly to the starter cable. Should it have a 28 AWG fusible link or other protection? >I do not know...

    Starter Contactor Indicator

    Hi All, I know everyone has been rooting for me so I figured I would post back on my progress. I tried wiring up the sensor pin using the diode as Kurt suggested however I did not have any luck so I had to use my lifeline and called Dynon tech support and as usual they were extremely...

    >You can want all you want, but wanting won't make it happen. I'm not sure why you bought a Skyview when really you wanted something else. The SV has an excellent motif. You should try and make that work for you. Or rip it out and put in that thing you have in the plane you fly for work...
