    Do You Need To Run Second Ground Wire To Sensors??

    Believe it or not...some of us really do read instruction manuals... I was re-reading the SV installation manual for the umteenth time and caught this little recommendation: "be sure to connect a ground wire between your engine block or avionics ground block and any of the SV-EMS-220/221’s...

    What is the power consumption of the various sensor pins of the EMS? I assume that EMS pins used to produce a OPEN/CLOSED contact annunciation icon on the Dynon screen itself are miniscule power consumers way down in the millivolt range... My new plan based on the information received from...

    What Is The Best iPad App For SV

    Jimmy, I was under the impression that the GTN-650 will not allow the Dynon to make changes into the GTN...is this true (new to this stuff)? I have used Foreflight to rubberband flight leg changes and then press the uplink button and the new route gets zapped to SV and that is REALLY...

    Level ADAHRS and Mag 236?

    Making sure that the boxes are level left/right /forward /backwards is as simple as placing a digital angle finder on the top surface of the unit in each axis... if they are not the same getting them trued up is the hard part. My strategy is to use place the airplane on jacks and then use a...
