    Autopilot Calibration

    I have twin D1000's, A/P Module with Autotrim in a Bristell NG5. Owned since 2016.

The Autopilot now though in flight wants to be...

    Autopilot disconnect button

    Hi, After 4years working just fine my Autopilot remote disconnect button has stopped working. The A/P works and disconnects just fine from the twin D1000's in the panel but not when I press the remote button. When the button is pressed with the autopilot engaged I get a 'Pitch Slip' indication...

    Autopilot/Auto trim in flight

    My autopilot with autotrim flies my aircraft, Bristell NG5, very well except that I do notice that when the autopilot/auto trim is engaged the aircraft flies 3-4knots slower than when I hand fly and hand trim the aircraft. I suspect that autotrim is trimming the aircraft just very slightly nose...

    'Caution' warnings

This prompts me to look and check the various parameters on the displays...these usually look fine to me and nothing appears in the messages box. So I do nothing and fly on. These caution...

    Happened to me twice now and wondering how to rectify. In the cruise without autopilot engaged at all I get audible repeated 'Caution, caution, caution' with nothing to tell me what I am being cautioned about and then maybe 30seconds later I get a popup message saying 'Autopilot disconnect...

    Sending Flight Plans to Skyview.

    Hi, Unsure if this an Pocket EasyVFR issue, a Dynon SkyView issue, or even an iOS issue but recently I have noticed that it takes a long time after loading a Flightplan for the button on the page to go from 'Waiting for SkyView' to 'Send F/Plan to SkyView. It used to be almost instantly and now...

    Compass ground calibration

    Hi, I had both my whisky compass and my Skyviews calibrated today by a professional avionics company.

    Ammeter reads backwards

    Hi, Skyviews x2 I am doing initial flights and checking SV parameters etc and my ammeter readings appear to be backwards. i.e. On the ground engine not running with both Skyviews turned on it will read +4.5amps I would have expected it to read -4.5amps. Is it just a case of me needing to swap...

    Hi Dynon, I am nearly ready to start flying my bird and whilst I understand flight plans can now be downloaded from Skydemon to Skyview a while back Skydemon data was not available on Skyview. I currently have a Pocket FMS/EasyVFR subscription but would personally prefer Skydemon for mapping...

    Hi, I have installled a T piece in the water coolant line on a Rotax 912uls and fitted a VDO temp sensor (supposed to be the same as Rotax CHT sensor) connected to Pin10 on the Skyview EMS. I now seem to be having an issue with configuring it. I must admit that it never occured to me that this...
