    TIS Only Problem

    We had the same problem flying from MLB to PTW. The ADSB traffic worked perfectly until we approached the DC SFRA. Then the Skyview would display No Radar and we would get a traffic alert on ourselves. Between DC and PTW we had about 20 false alerts which was very frustrating. We have filed...

    External trig transponder

    Another weird request from the Phoenix motorglider group. We turn off the engine and soar. We want to make the best use of battery power while engine off. We would like to turn off the Skyview and use an external (to the Skyview) Trig transponder to save power. Will we lose engine-on Skyview...

    ForeFlight connectivity comes to SkyView via Wi-Fi

    Your screenshot of the iPad seems to show air data in addition to attitude data. Will the iPad receive air data from the Skyview?

    Dimming for night flight

    I want to thank the posters on this thread to alerting me to this problem. After tests in the dark hangar prior to night flight I found that even my red cockpit light brings the Skyview to full bright, not something I want to deal with on final approach. It looks like I will have to resort to...

    Does software version 11.0 crash the ADAHRS

    Don't know about the "multiple sensors". These were my customer's Phoenix aircraft. I have not updated my Skyview software yet because I am gunshy of new software in general. I tend to let others go first. In the first case, the ADAHRS unit was swapped out overnight and the owner was on his...

    Does software version 11.0 crash the ADAHRS

    We have had two Phoenix owners report that upon loading the 11.0 software, the ADAHRS failed. One ADAHRS has been replaced by Dynon (overnight! - what great service!) and we are just beginning to troubleshoot the other one. Is there a relationship here, or not?

    Boom mic and external speaker with Dynon Radio

    As I understand it, the Becker 6201 has an amplified signal to work with an external speaker. If you could steer us to a solution that takes the Dynon radio signal and amplifies it for use in a speaker, we would appreciate it!

    Blutooth

    The Phoenix group would like air data and magnetometer data transmitted to an iPad running iGlide which is a program similar to Foreflight, but for glider pilots. iGlide takes the airdata and compares to GPS data to give wind and glide data to show where you can glide to, how high you need to...

    Blutooth

    It would be wonderful if the Skyview had Bluetooth or WiFi connectivity to other devices like mini iPads.

    Carbon Fiber and Avionics

    The carbon fiber Phoenix Motorglider has never used a ground plane and the radio, transponder, and ADSB antennas all work great. We have never had a problem. Sorry for the anecdotal information.

    Magnetic clutch autopilot servos

    The Phoenix Motorglider crew would like a magnetic clutch autopilot servo to reduce the stick friction when the autopilot is turned off. TL Elektronic offers this type of servo and the servo works great. Unfortunately their Integra controller does not.

    Transponder use without Skyview turned on

    The Phoenix Motorglider crew would like to be able to use the transponder without the Skyview turned on to save battery power while soaring.

    Boom mic and external speaker with Dynon Radio

    The Phoenix motorglider crew would like to have a boom mic and external speaker for engine off soaring flight without headsets on. The Becker 6201 offers this but the Dynon does not. How about it Dynon? Other than that, we feel that the Dynon radio is awesome.

    Will the Skyview comm radio work if the Skyview is turned off or fails?

    Transponder

    The Phoenix motorglider shuts down it's Skyview during extended soaring (several hours) to save battery power. But we want to be able to run the transponder. Can we use a remote Trig head on the panel to run it?

    Dynon GPS feed to other devices

    Can the Dynon GPS antenna signal be fed to other devices besides the Skyview? How many can it handle? Would it need an amplifier? Thanks, Jim

    Dynon ADS-B for Skyview

    I understand that the Dynon ADS-B receiver will not have bluetooth connectivity in order to transmit to an iPad or similar device. Is this in Dynon's future? This would be an awesome addition.
