Again, pretty harsh. They screwed up, obviously, but maybe with an earlier warning that something was going on, they wouldn't have had to react in an emergency situation, but in an earlier, developing situation. Isn't this an argument for NOT having the system wait until they're actually...

In your opinion. You're welcome to disagree, but I don't see how you can just declare my opinion "invalid". I agree that autotrim is nice. But I spend about 0.001% of my flight time adjusting trim when flying IFR/IMC (or VFR/VMC, for that matter). I trim for climb, then trim for cruise, then...

FIKI or not, people occasionally encounter ice when in IMC. Better to know there's something going on than not know, is my point. And E-AB aircraft, which is (at least so far) the majority of Dynon installs, there's no such thing as STC'd or not - people just do what they do...

I've got a different take on the Autotrim capabilities found in most EFIS's, and here's what I generally say to my customers when they ask about it. If you're flying VFR only, Autotrim is great - takes a small load off the pilot and makes sure the plane is trimmed so that when you turn off the...

DBRV10 spoke to this issue, but I'll discuss all three possible shunt locations, and why (IMO) "A" is the best choice. "C" tells you what the aircraft load is - that's essentially what the VP-X does, if you have one, and the VP-X also gives you individual current draws. If you don't have a...

Sounds like the problem is in the VP-X, not in the pitot heat. If it draws 8.7A but the VP-X pops even though it's on a 10A circuit, how can that be anything other than the VP-X's issue?

A month or two ago I reported a similar bug with the DEST WPT field with respect to switching between the Skyview and (in my case, a GPS-175) external navigator. The response from Dynon was "huh - that's interesting".

Do you have an audio panel for COM? What are the two radios hooked up to? The Dynon by itself cannot "switch COM radios". Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question...

Yes, for VOR/ILS/LOC approaches and en-route navigation. Sometimes it seems to be hard to get MFG's to say that, but there's no reason that it wouldn't be, assuming you're using the SV as the CDI.

Works for me. If there is, I haven't found it in the ADS-B world.

Yep.

One assumes that there is "something" going on. What is unknown is what that "something" is :-). If you (or anyone else) has any ideas, I'm all ears. As I said, installed per plans and instructions; both Dynon and Garmin; installed by me and others. The cals don't fail - the magnetometers just...

I wish that were true. I've never had good experience with either Dynon or Garmin's magnetometers from an accuracy standpoint, for either me or my customers. They either drift over time, or have errors in one direction and opposite errors in the other direction. This, after the ground cal and...

You're misunderstanding what I'm describing. I'm not trying to use both systems "at the same time", which isn't possible. I'm indicating when the DEST waypoint shows up, and when it doesn't, and when the VSR works, and when it doesn't. When I ONLY use the GSP-175 as the Flight Plan Source...

I have a 10" Skyview, single ADAHRS, Dynon COM, Dynon SV-XPDR-261, SV-ADSB-472, ARINC-429 Adapter, and a Garmin GPS-175 Navigator. I have two question/issues: 1) When programming the Skyview with a flight plan and a final destination (the last waypoint, obviously), the MAP Info list will show...

What way IS there to upload fuel calibration information to a EMS-120, trivial or not?  I'm willing to jump through a fair # of hoops to do so... Thanks.

I had a very similar issue very recently with an EMS-D120. I started getting short term jumpiness and fluctuations in the EGT/CHT's. Sometimes, putting pressure on either of the two connectors (37 pin or 25 pin) would get the fluctuations to go away, and sometimes it would redline the temps...

I seem to remember seeing something like this when I installed my EMS. IIRC, it turned out to be a loose connector on the back of the unit - I hadn't yet tightened the screws, or maybe even plugged in the wiring harness for the EGT's. You might want to check for something as simple as a loose...

That's fine - all I'm asking for is that it be MY choice, not the device's (in this case). If it's something that the user can set, then you will have the option to leave things as is, and the alarm will go off. I, conversely, would have the option to decide for myself whether or not I want...
