    Panel Planning Help Request

    I like #3! Consider changing the switch face plates to white lettering on a black background to match the Dynon face plates

    Custom Waypoint Selection and Flight Plan Integration

    I discussed this with Dynon at KOSH last year and was told that "it was on the list". They wouldn't say if it was at the top or the bottom of the list but they did say the request has merit and that it was a feature that was frequently requested.

    Custom Waypoint Selection and Flight Plan Integration

    I eagerly await Dynon's implementation of modifying the flight plan by dragging the route on the screen to the desired position (rubber banding).

    HDX WiFi Problems

    How many devices do you have connected to your HDX system? HDX currently only supports 1 WIFI connection. If you have more than one device connected, you will see disconnects. Both my iPhone and iPad will automatically connect to my HDIX system. If I want to use one of these devices in...

    121.5 one button tuning

    This should be added to the Dynon "wish list" of enhancements. The last thing you want to have to deal with is keying in a frequency during a helmet fire.

    Panel Planning Help Request

    Design is well balanced and all functions can be easily reached with either hand. Other than preference, I don't see any upside or downside of using either the vertical or horizontal orientation. As others have mentioned, since you are flying right hand stick, left hand throttle, I would keep...

    Panel Planning Help Request

    You have the right approach. Keep the Skyview screen as high as possible on the panel. As noted the AP panel provides you auto trim. Also, the AP panel is only functional if you configure the AP for Advanced mode. It is not active in Simplified mode. I don't have the AP panel...

    Touch Screen Gloves For Skyview HDX Pireps

    During cold weather operations (below °C) I typically fly with wool fingerless gloves in the cockpit. They allow me to easily work with the SKyview HDX touch screens, panels, knobs and buttons. However, fingerless gloves are not ideal for outside ops such as fueling aircraft, etc...

    Skyview HDX WiFi Dongle and ForeFlight

    Not an answer to your question but a suggestion that might reduce the occurrences of disconnects. I was surprised to read this thread which quotes Dynon stating that Skyview only supports 1 connection. If two devices are connected then you *will* experience intermittent disconnects. Like...

    VSR Alarm

    Heard back from Dynon Tech Support. Not a current feature.

    VSR Alarm

    Curious if anyone has found a way to configure an HDX alert so the VSR will alarm when it crosses a predefined threshold. I.E. treat it like a CHT sensor, alert is generated when your VSR exceed 500 FPM. Most EFBs have this function. However, after upgrading my panel to HDX Skyview, I...

    System Event 20 & System Event 21 at startup

    Some encouraging news from Dynon Tech Support. I received the following update yesterday.... "We do have engineering working for the System event 20 and 21 bug. They are supposed to have a fix out in version 17.1, which should be out sometime around Oshkosh." Fingers crossed.

    System Event 20 & System Event 21 at startup

    Sounds like your system was too unstable to complete the export. If it doesn't complete the export in 5-10 minutes, I would reboot and assume that the diagnostic information was compromised.

    System Event 20 & System Event 21 at startup

    Good question. Since both failures occurred during engine start my first thought was voltage sag. However, both displays have batteries, which were recently tested (and passed) during condition inspection. In both instances only the PFD rebooted. MFD remained operational.

    System Event 20 & System Event 21 at startup

    This is second one I've experienced this year. Master on and all system were initialized. I hit the starter button and the PFD rebooted with System Event 20 and System Event 21 errors. It has also happen to my wingman, whose install is identical to mine. We both have all Dynon Advanced...

    Why Certified?

    For the same reason why you should care if your engine, propeller, wheels, brakes, instruments, hoses, lights, bolts, nuts, screws, ...... are certified. If they are not then it is your responsibility to ensure whatever is installed is fit for purpose and doesn't impede safe operations. Not...

    Version 16.7 software released

    @felix1973, were you able to resolve this issue? I just installed a Canopy switch sensor in an RV-6. Sensor & display works as documented but I can’t get SkyView HDX 16.7 to honor the rpm threshold before alerting. Want to taxi without alerting. Loaded new dfg file with 1750 rpm. No joy...

    Unfortunately, no. You can export the data for review but there is no real time capability to view past flights
