    EMS or Skyview exhaust valve monitoring

    Two ways to implement: 1. you are looking for a frequency and an amplitude excursion.....so the throttle, mixture, rpm, etc would put you outside those parameters (no indication of valve issues....or "unknowable". or 2. you could steady up on alt, speed, mixture, rpm, etc...then push a soft...

    EMS or Skyview exhaust valve monitoring

    Mike Busch (in many articles) talks about reviewing engine data post flight to look for the symptom of exhaust valve failure (slow EGT oscillation with a frequency around 1 cycle per minute with an amplitude of 30 to 100 F). https://www.aopa.org/news-and-media/all-news/2014/july/08/savvy Any...

    SkyView 10 issues

    With the latest update, I am also getting the ads/b traffic fail in the lower right display (never had this before). Note that the only systems I have attached to sky view are the AHRS, SL30 and the SV GPS puck. The network status page reports the ADHRS and the SV700/D1000. The serial ports...

    Skyview screen failure in IMC

    The backup battery was installed and charged. I think that the power-line shorting out was doing funny things---even preventing the backup batt from taking over. The one thing I did not think of doing in flight when I lost the display was to turn the breaker switch off and then use 1/2/5 to...

    Skyview screen failure in IMC

    Problem resolved. Pulled unit out of airplane and placed in desiccant for a week as a precaution. Did not see any trace of wetness anywhere---but did it anyway. All connectors were dry. Checked breaker switch for proper operation---good. Checked the two ground wires----they were good...

    Skyview display breaker

    Quick question: Skyview installation manual says this on 4-7: Ensure that there is an appropriately rated circuit breaker or replaceable fuse on the primary power input. For a SkyView system with one display, a 5 amp circuit breaker or replaceable fuse is sufficient for the majority of...

    Skyview screen failure in IMC

    Just happened to me yesterday---most likely my fault----but looking for help. Skyview is installed in my Cozy MKIV. ILS approach in the driving rain into KLAF---all was well. Airplane is not completely leak proof and I had left off the glider tape that seals the back edge of the canard. End...

    SV and SL-30/40 Users Please Read!

    jchang---I have a better solution for you. Carry an IPAD with either Wingx (which I use) or Foreflight wifi'd to a ADS-B receiver. On Wingx, tap on the airport, select weather, and it will pull up that airport and all the airports near it---simultaneously you can either look at all the metars...

    I was asking about sending one airport at a time---so push KPAE followed by KPAE freqs----all with the APT-COM button.

    Sv 6.0 and SL30 data exchange problem

    I purchased your first lot of SV. Got rid of the KX-125 when I figured out there was going to be no compatibility. Been running the SL30 as a replacement. Not exactly looking to buy a third radio anytime soon. But... Ever think about a SV-COM lite---basically the same display without the...

    SV and SL-30/40 Users Please Read!

    I second what jchang just said---more useful feature for SL30 is to push the airport freqs (with freq IDs) via the APT-COM button----using the nearest button to push all of the nearest freqs would be of little utility to me. All of my comments are meant to push Dynon from good to great (to sort...

    Advanced AP flight director

    ok--roger that---no FD without servos. I did look at 2 posts down as you suggested. But here is one post up from my original: "I think we have a terminology mismatch. Won't the autopilot functions (heading, alt, ILS engage, etc) eventually be part of the main display (as opposed to a...

    Sv 6.0 and SL30 data exchange problem

    Dynon--the original supported radio was the SL-30. And the SL30 inherently has the capability to support the nearest airports com freqs from GPS systems. So from there---I would think that it would be "easy". If not---then ok. But more or less as noted by several posters---if you are just...

    SV and SL-30/40 Users Please Read!

    Yes please---would love the feature. Of note---I see that SL-30s and SL-40s are no longer being produced (May 2013). You can still buy and get repaired while supplies/parts last.

    Sv 6.0 and SL30 data exchange problem

    Yes---would be extremely happy if I could at least get APT-COM to populate the first slot in the SL30 recall (complete with ATIS, CTAF, etc markings). I think the SL30 has the ability to store more than one set of airport freqs at a time. But would be extremely satisfied to at least get an...

    Sv 6.0 and SL30 data exchange problem

    I had a couple of issues that got solved---but not sure if it was my steps or luck. Initial issue: -SL30 pri and standby freqs displayed on SV top bar. Flip flop function worked well -could not push standby freqs to SL30 -SV course knob worked but did not update the SL-30 OBS display...

    Advanced AP flight director

    Here is what Dynon said in 2010: "Yes, you can have a flight director without physical servos, but you can't have a flight director until we have an AP subsystem in the SkyView. So we won't have a flight director until after SkyView can be an autopiliot. Sounds like we're on the same page."...

    Battery test

    Batt test runs the battery for 45 minutes---has a count down timer on the test page. When complete, it says the test has passed. Note that your batt after test will be somewhat discharged and will need to recharge on the next flight

    flight director question

    Yes I agree that is what the documentation says. But here is what Dynon said in 2010: "Yes, you can have a flight director without physical servos, but you can't have a flight director until we have an AP subsystem in the SkyView. So we won't have a flight director until after SkyView can be an...
