    IAS units

    I know that temp is in centigrade and I believe speeds are in knots. I read temp in fahrenheit but the data log is in centigrade so I'm sure your screen settings have no effect.

    Can AOA widget be moved and size changed?

    I also support Bruce's comments. I'd like to have the display have the features of the EMS vertical widgets with the ability to select marks for best glide, climb rate, climb angle, approach and the current stall indicator. A numerical readout is needed to select the above. Moving the AOA...

    Best glide range

    I’d prefer to see the available fields in “nearest” calculated using the current true airspeed and rate of descent along with Dynon's calculated winds. The pilot would need to input table values for the amount of altitude lost in a 90 and 180 degree turn as well as two altitudes to be at when...

    Skyview Backup Battery weak

    At Dynon's suggestion some years ago, I have a 6 amp charger from Harbor Freight ($29.99). Hooked up to the main battery, Master and Skyview on , they draw 3.7 amps leaving 2.3 for the backup battery. The nice part is the main battery never gets fully charged and the charger never shuts off...

    IFR Check

    Might there be a way of creating in Setup Mode an entry for "Bi-annual IFR altitude/encoder test" that we go into and the tech could run his test the way they test every other altimeter. Protect the fine adjustment made to altitude in flight. All we need is to be assured of meeting the 125 foot...

    INFO default to next waypoint

    When on an active flight plan, I would find it very useful if the INFO selection under MAP MANU would default to the next waypoint. This assumes a page exists for the waypoint. It seems the only info I'm after concerns the next waypoint, not the last selected.

    EMS failed to upgrade on Ver 3.1.1

    With a single D1000, ADAHRS & EMS, I upgraded from Ver 2.6 to 3.0 last Fri. That upgrade included the ob, av and the one sensor file. Today I upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1.1. All upgrades sent smoothly but upon checking the Network status, the EMS showed no version and reported that "Needs...

    GPS data out to GTX-327

    I need to output GPS-250 data to GTX-327 transponder to enable the feature that automatically switches the transponder from Stby to Alt. Can I pickup the GPS transmit data from an open serial TX port on Skyview ver 2.6 or do I have to have to actually splice into the TX line from the GPS-250?

    SV-BAT Charging

    Successfully charged the SV-BAT to 11.9v using the referenced Harbor Freight charger ($35) set to 6 amp over a 2 hr period. Near the end of charging, the charger shifts to an "adsorption" mode and lowers the voltage below what Skyview needs. Disconnecting the charger, loading the A/C battery...

    SV-BAT Charging

    I have an RV-6A with a Odyssey PC680 battery and the aircraft is not ready for flight. SV-BAT is depleted. Has anyone used a charging system or power supply that would boot Skyview and enable it to recharge SV-BAT? Requires 5 amps for 2 hours.

    SV-BAT Charging

    When SkyView is powered down (by holding button #1) but the AC battery (maintained at 12.2 v by charger) is still available, will SV-BAT be recharged back to 12.2v?
