    Dynon AOA Probe leak check

    With the Dynon probe having all that rubber calk inside, can I scrape that out and refill it after leak checking? Probably best just to get a new probe. I'm betting a tube was drilled into. I can't see it dropping that much after taping the weep holes. Used to do this on F-111's and F-16's.

    Dynon AOA Probe leak check

    I'll try the soapy water test, in the end, I may just buy a new probe to make sure everything is OK.

    Dynon AOA Probe leak check

    My airspeed seems to lag behind reality, so I used a syringe and surgical tubing (highly advanced technical stuff) and connected it to my Dynon FlighDek D-180 and the Dynon AOA probe (no heat). I can get it to go to 100kts, but it dropped off suddenly. So i bypassed the AOA / pitot probe and ran...

    FlightDek D-180 freezes

    Wow! It's been a while. So for the Dynon freezing up, turns out the AOA side of the probe had become disconnected. Someone had installed both the AOA and the pitot lines using heat shrink on the probe lines and the 1/4" lines to the dynon, then slid fuel tubing over it all, expecting it to hold...

    Fuel flow way off

    I have a Dynon FlightDEK D-180, not sure what fuel flow sensor, but I think it came with the Dynon. It has no tag to get the factory setting from, and I've run the calibration number?? what's it called, up and down. I think I'll try figuring out what GPM the Jabiru 3300 runs at when at idle, and...

    FlightDek D-180 freezes

    I've got a D-180 that says I'm going 25-26 kts when I turn it on, or if I turn it off and back on, it may say 0 kts. I've zeroed it, but it still seems unreliable. Sometimes my AS and or ALT will freeze up. My engine RPM's also jump around sometimes going full RPM or even to 0. And of course...
