    D10A replacement let's do this!

    Hi Dynon- y'all know I love my HDX in my Cherokee 6. I was just wondering if there is any news on a potential upgrade for the D10A? Would there have been any announcements at Sun n Fun had it happened? :) I am so hoping for a plug and play replacement for it- similar form factor and...

    Auto pilot certification?

    That all makes sense to me. I totally understand that they need to go after the models that will generate the sales and some of the common birds like PA28 have been dominated by Trutrak already so maybe they figure that is a lost segment? Ether way I am super happy with my HDX system - it is...

    Auto pilot certification?

    Thanks for that info! Thats great to know. The STC's for the Dynon AP seem to be moving very slowly. I know it's a difficult and expensive process from what I hear. I wish the PA32 were even on their list. I fear it may never happen or its just going to be a looooooooooooong time. :(

    SkyView HDX and IFD 540 OBS configuration RV 10

    In my Avidyne/Dynon certified setup it works as it should - the Dynon CRS selection changes the OBS on the IFD540. It definitely can work like this so there must be a setting or wiring thing going on with your installation? I can try to help by relaying any settings you want me to check on...

    Heading indicator

    Any progress on a D10A replacement??? :) That screen needs updating especially sitting next to the gorgeous HDX! Was hoping for a circa Sun 'N Fun announcement... :)

    Auto pilot certification?

    Definitely stop by the Delta row hangars and say hi!

    Auto pilot certification?

    If you have it installed make sure the HDX gets wired to it via serial on a switch so it can control the TT...here is a video about that too..

    Auto pilot certification?

    For those not wanting to wait or if your model has not been announced on the road map, here is video I made about the Trutrak Autopilot. I hope to eventually install the Dynon AP if it gets approved for the PA32 but until that time, I would rather be with an AP than without...

    Skyview and Avidyne Power on Self Test (POST)

    It is like drinking through a firehose. Doing the rating with the HDX might be more difficult than steam because steam gauges show you ONLY what you need to know- you don't have to filter out as much information. The instrument rating was overwhelming for many weeks for me and then one day it...

    Skyview and Avidyne Power on Self Test (POST)

    You can see the CDI is deflected to the left, The CRS (course) indication shows 150, the course needle is pointing at 150 with a TO triangle pointing in the direction of 150, and the glide slope is on the first diamond above the middle (UP). You will want to make sure the HDX HSI source...

    HDX training

    I made a couple videos that shows some of the features of the HDX- it is not a training video but you might pick up a few things and you can see how I use the HDX in the air on a real flight. I am still learning the finer points of the system and discovering my own preferred workflow every...

    Once again excellent customer service from Dynon

    Reports of service like these were a large factor of my choice to go with Dynon HDX vs the competition. It's good to share this and let the company know that they should continue to do this right as they grow!

    Audible "Approaching Waypoint" alert with External GPS?

    Thanks for the reply! The Avidyne unfortunately has no option for an aural alert when approaching a waypoint that I am able to find. It DOES give an aural alert for the TOP OF DESCENT if the FMS has a programmed crossing altitude input or as part of a published procedure. I am aware that the...

    Best Glass Panel Ever? My In Depth Review of Dynon SkyView HDX for Certified

    I don't know but will try to find out. I also like how that turned out and that little tiny USB drive is so small and actually very inexpensive. I bought 2 and keep one at home updating and the other in the plane. I just swap them on the day of the database changeover...

    Best Glass Panel Ever? My In Depth Review of Dynon SkyView HDX for Certified

    It is the Dynon AOA. We installed the Dynon hardware (AOA Pitot) but only the AOA is derived from it- the Piper pitot/static mast still does everything else. I do not believe the Dynon AOA pitot is heated on my installation...

    Best Glass Panel Ever? My In Depth Review of Dynon SkyView HDX for Certified

    The answer is yes you can and no you can't.... The TT integrates a little with the Skyview. But nowhere near as good as what the Dynon autopilot would do. (The Dynon AP has a full flight director mode and loads of other features...audible alerts, etc etc.) The pilot guide and Dynon training...

    Thanks for the feedback. I hope there is a sensible upgrade path for recent D10A owners. :)

    Audible "Approaching Waypoint" alert with External GPS?

    I have an Avidyne IFD540. I would like to take advantage of the audible "approaching waypoint" alert but I believe the HDX only issues this alert when approaching waypoints on the Skyview flight plan. Not sure if the Skyview flight plan must be active or not. 1. Is there a way that the HDX can...

    ChartData Manager is Windows only :( I found a FREE fix

    I know this is a Seattle Avionics thing but I think it sucks big time that ChartData Manager is Windows only. It's 2020 dudes just port that sucker. Mac users are pilots too! :) I found a free workaround that involves downloading VirtualBox for Mac, signing up for the Windows Insider Account...

    Best Glass Panel Ever? My In Depth Review of Dynon SkyView HDX for Certified

    5 months ago I flew from California to Florida to replace all my steam gauges in my Piper Cherokee 6 with the Dynon Skyview HDX for Certified system. Do I miss them? Here is my full in depth review of the Dynon HDX. Hopefully you will get a good taste of what it is like to fly with it! When I...
