    Intermittent amperage spike causing engine aural warning

    Been there. Almost certainly you have some unplanned resistance or intermittence in the measurement circuit.

    Mounting SV-XPNDR-261

    The manual suggests it’s a good idea to create ground loops. Is the SV transponder not quite connected to the ground pin? I installed mine without a separate tray ground because i tested case continuity to ground via the pin.

    Vertical stripey screen and reboots on SV-D1000

    Mine did the exact same about a dozen times over the last 100 or so flight hours (maybe 9 months). I haven't seen it since just before OSH. I should tolerate a week or two of down time to get it fixed.

    Traffic position update between Rx's

    Traffic position is inherently wrong unless it's stationary. :D

    Traffic position update between Rx's

    Given the ADS-B traffic info has a timestamp and velocity vector, can SkyView please update the traffic's position accordingly? Presumably it's a 3D vector, but even 2D would be helpful. On the edges of reception, it might be 10-20 seconds between updates. ::) :o

    How to dim ems warning led?

    Desire is to dim it with just the SV PWM output. First-class support.  Thanks!

    EarthX BatteryEMS contact input

    Thanks. I first hooked up mine the same this evening, and didn't see that. I'll watch for it. Maybe you're a hair under 3.2v?

    EMS "CONTACT" inputs anomally

    Don't those inputs all have 5v pull-ups? You need to pull them down (to ground) not try to measure if they go above 5v.

    How to dim ems warning led?

    Can someone recommend a simple transistor solution?

    How to dim ems warning led?

    I was thinking a signal relay connecting the main bus (w/resistor) to an LED anode and cathode direct to SkyView dim output. But, that's kludgy. Is there an option to pwm the ems light output?

    Engine cooling pressure

    Thanks! Found this even more convenient. https://www.widgeneering.com/mpx5010dp_freescale_pressure_sensor_with_carrier.html This over an ASI because I want it in the data log. :)

    Engine cooling pressure

    Hi. I'd like to add a cowl differential pressure (top vs bottom) sensor. Lycoming says I should have about 6" water difference. Would this sensor do the trick? And, if it's not too much to ask, an SFG file entry? Thx...

    autopilot -- stick shaker?

    Autopilot -- stick nudge Ryanallen, No. What Garmin has is an option to automatically engage the autopilot if you totally lose it. Rather than an emergency-only device, I was thinking of something more potentially involved in casual maneuvering.

    autopilot -- stick shaker?

    Re: autopilot -- stick nudge? (was shaker..) Sorry, I didn't mean just to shake the stick, but to nudge/pulse it forward to help avoid a stall, like some cars now do to keep your lane.

    autopilot -- stick shaker?

    Re: autopilot -- stick nudge? (was shaker..) Lola, The idea in this case is to nudge the stick in the direction away from killing yourself by a stall/spin near the ground. The proposed idea doesn't have anything to do with aerobatics (though of course I agree such is good for feel of the...

    autopilot -- stick shaker?

    I'd like that, too. It's an answer to a different problem/question, though.

    autopilot -- stick shaker?

    Was thinking about the EAA contest for reducing LOC accidents.. Wondering if Dynon's autopilot might be able to have a stick-shake mode when not over a runway and exceeding maybe 10 degrees AOA. Sure, there are 3rd-party add-on devices. But, it seems to me you can do this with the autopilot...

    v14 "Caution" audio alerts

    Since 14.0, I noticed what seemed like a lack of any filtering of the engine data, a couple parameters hanging around the yellow/red flashed back and forth so much, I imagine it would generate many messages.

    Request for 5% Wide EMS Screen!!!!

    Meh. I have no use for a 5% ribbon. Would MUCH rather invest programmer time in new features like HITS, airspeed callouts, airspace in SynViz, or new EIS widgets. (like a combined, revised EGT/CHT)
