The aircraft causing a Traffic Advisory is 400 feet above me at my 5 O'clock position and 5 miles. The orange vector arrow indicates he'll move about 24 NM in one minute so he'll close the 5 NM gap in about 15 seconds. Is this to be believed? Or is my SV-ADSB-472 confused?

Dynon is closed for the holiday weekend so I thought I'd throw this out for help from the illuminati. This is what my SkyView presented two hours into a 3-hour flight a few days ago: Then it happened again four times in a half hour flight a couple of days later.  Recycling power brought...

Question for Dynon support: What's with the altitude indication for the orange rectangle (restricted area) near the center of the map display?  It should read surface to FL180 but that's hard to discern from what it shows. The altitudes were readable at different zoom levels (or disappeared...

[new thread due to hijacking of my previous posting] Anyone have a PIREP on the new software? A forum search for "15.2.0" produces nothing. I'm hesitant to be an early adopter with a trip coming up but would like to hear of others' experience.

[I'm posting this jointly with friend and fellow RV-driver, Peter Seferovic.] Announcing SkyView Assist (™), an Android application for use with the Dynon SkyView.  SkyView Assist displays Dynon SkyView engine gauges on your tablet or phone.  This allows you to display a larger Map page and/or...

Dynon Support: reference the #1 CHT in the screen capture (below), is this expected behavior?  I.e. is the background of the CHT reading supposed to revert from yellow to black for an alarm (red) condition? (IIRC my CHTs are set to indicate yellow up to 420 and red from 420 to 500.)

Dynon, would you consider changing the timestamp used in screenshots' filenames to UTC instead of whatever offset for local has been applied? Thanks, Joe

[Cross-posted from Van's Air Force forum.  Lot of views but no responses.] Helping a friend update the SkyView in his not-yet-flying RV-12 to 12.0. Downloaded the latest bits from the Van's Aircraft web site, dutifully unZIPped the .DUC file and put it on a USB flash drive. The update process...

Please explain why the standard SkyView .DFG file for a Lycoming 4-cylinder engine's MAP sensor seems to indicate a range of 0 - 19.6439 PSI.  My gauge indicates much higher than that of course -- perhaps 0 - 40 PSI.  Is there some sort of conversion going on? The applicable entry in the file...

> great idea for a new feature or new product? Post it here. I wish Dynon would sell an attitude indicator that would fit in a standard 2-1/4 inch instrument hole.  This would serve as a backup for a single-screen SkyView system in IMC. I'm aware of the D1 and D2 but I want something that's...

I searched for "user data log" and didn't find mention of this problem (below).  Perhaps this is a feature, not a bug or is by design; in that case, please disregard everything except my plea for a streamlined user data log download. SV v12.0.  For at least my last three User Data downloads...

Is it expected behavior that the LEVEL button on the SV-AP-PANEL only engages the A/P in the Expert control mode (not Simplified)? Perhaps my testing methodology is faulty: the aircraft is at rest on the ground.  However, I can press my (optional) external Level button or the LEVEL button in...

Is there currently any consensus on replacement EGT probes for the EMS-220 module?  Reliability and long-life are my main criteria but low to moderate cost is also important to me. Thanks, Joe

Dynon support: please answer these two unrelated questions.  I've searched the documentation, honest <g>. Is it possible to disable the translucent "ADS-B Status" display in the lower left?  I'd like to reclaim some of the map screen and would be content with a small colored icon on the top...

Dynon: how about a "de-clutter" button?  It would remove "layers" from the map page.  In the image above, I'd like to see the runway alignment relative to my position but I'm overwhelmed with other items. Sure, I could drill down through menus and configure the map differently.  Or zoom and...

Dynon marketing: do you have plans to eventually add dual-band capability to the SV-ADSB-470? I realize this would be a hardware change as well as firmware (probably big jobs for both). The reason I'm asking is to help make my purchasing decision (Dynon vs. one of the dual-band portables with...

One EGT has started acting up on my Lycoming IO-360 after 80 hours total time (SkyView with EMS and Dynon probe package). Here's what Savvy Analysis reports on my EGTs as I taxied out.  Note the #4 EGT (magenta) decreases to 0 (below ambient!) a few seconds after engine shutdown (for...

Can someone explain the (apparently bogus) traffic indication I saw yesterday?  This is from a 10-inch SkyView and SV-XPNDR-26X in an area where I normally don't normally receive traffic info via TIS.  It lasted only a few seconds.

I thought I'd start my own thread for minor issues rather than "pollute" threads on some of the major problems.  Perhaps Dynon Support could address this in a later release. At certain ranges of the map screen, the airport identifier for a Class-D airfield is not visible.  Perhaps it's...

This is addressed to Dynon Support.  I'm not really asking for anything; it's more of a notification of something strange happening that may be useful for you to know about. Occasionally my SV-D1000 system powers up incorrectly.  Today I caught it in the act and was able to obtain a couple of...
