I've replaced my Ray Allen trim motor with a new one per recommendation from Vans. Previous one worked very well with Skyview/AP Module and auto trim. I've gone into EMS hardware menu to update the configuration and indicator on the Skyview screen. Screen seems fine. Manual trim button...

Looking for some advise regarding the setup of a new oil pressure sensor. Background: During test flight last weekend after a fuel tank leak repair, I suddenly had a drop in oil pressure just after liftoff. (dropped into the yellow range which it never does) Headed around to land and the...

I posted this originally a number of weeks ago and failed to look back at the responses.  Bottom line, Skyview software and/or 470 box are failing to correctly display the various TFRs in our area.  The first time I reported this was in early June.  This past weekend, Pres. Trump was in NJ and...

Good evening.  I want to report an error in how a TFR active this past weekend in the northeast was being displayed on the Skyview screen.  I have a legacy  ADSB-470 box.  This error was reported to me the last time a Presidential TFR was in effect in the NJ area and I asked him to report it to...

Good question, everything happened so fast and I disconnected the AP before totally getting out of control.  My "impression" was that the AP was putting me into a dive, but logically it should have started a climb.  Maybe such a dramatic Baro driven alt. change also messes up the AP.  In...

Purpose of this post is to point out a serious problem with Skyview/autopilot system when erroneous ADS-B input is entered into Skyview.  Earlier today I was flying near Carroll County airport MD (KDMW) and pressed the Baro button to have the nearest Baro setting entered into Skyview via the...

First, I'm a big fan of Skyview and Dynon and having just begun flying with ver15, I'm liking what I see. Customer focus at Dynon leads most if not all the other aviation companies. However, I cannot find in the new user manual where to enter/setup both the Maintenance and Weight/Balance...

Dynon support, I experienced a Ver 14 (original version) screen freeze yesterday FYI.  Just downloaded the 14.0.7 update from your website and will install/begin testing later in the week.  Is it necessary to send diagnostic files etc.. to you on the older version or just focus on testing out...

Another fan of the 10% or even 5% EMS screen option.  Love my Skyview but this would further improve a great system.  Even a little bit more map/PFD area would be noticed and appreciated.

I have a question that might be a misunderstanding on my part.  I subscribe to the Seattle Avionics charts data and recently downloaded the sectionals for Skyview.  Getting to understand how to use it but so far it looks great. However, I don't see any sectional data for parts of Canada that my...

Thanks for confirming the pin location.  That is exactly where it is in my harness. The harness comes from Van's and I guess there was a chance it was defective, but that does not appear to be the case. So it appears I have a dud unit.  I'll contact the warranty line and work out an exchange or...

First, thanks for the patience, I'm making progress. Exchanged emails with Van's today and did some testing this evening.  1) I did have the serial port incorrectly configured.  Went back to the plans and corrected that today for serial port 2. 2) Tested the wire harness with multimeter and...

I removed the avionics cover and confirmed that the wiring harness was installed for the SV-ADSB-470 module (it was).  Started up Skyview, ran the configuration again and the attached BMP screenshot file shows what is being detected.  If there is an indicator light that is suppose to light...

Thanks for the comments.  For clarity, I definitely have the ADS-B module physically installed (per instructions from Van's).  In previous testing I saw the module listed on the screen as being recognized by Skyview.  Now, I upgraded to the latest S/W (ver 7.1 I believe) a few weeks back and...

I was doing some flying yesterday with Skyview system.  I was getting TIS traffic warnings and everything seemed to work fine for about an hour of flying.  However, I cannot find any ADS-B weather in the system.  In the MAP menu I don't see any Weather label on the menu.  When I checked a local...

I'm preparing for first flight and was adjusting prop pitch on an RV-12 / Rotax 912 ULS engine.  At wide open throttle (>4,500 RPM) I am seeing highly unusual RPM readings.  At low/warm up RPM up to above 4,000 the tach appears to be steady.  But as I approached 4,500 or so, the tach readings...
