    Seattle Avionics .....normal monthly frustration....

    Mine goes easily each month. Running Windows 8 or 10, and Sandisk stubby 32GB USB drives. I just insert the drives, start Seattle Avionics ChartData Manager 6.6.0.2. Then go do something else for a while.

    RPM L and RPM R in log files

    I would VERY MUCH like this bug to be fixed. The only reason I installed two tach leads was so that I could detect magneto problems. Ideally, I would also like an alarm when the two values differ significantly, as this would be an indication of a magneto failure. Presently there is no way to do...

    RPM L and RPM R in log files

    I had a magneto failure last week. I downloaded the log files to see if there were any warnings of impending doom. Comparing RPM L and RPM R, which are connected to the Left and Right magneto's P-leads, I expected to see the two RPM values differ after the failure. Instead, I found that every...

    RPM showing about double the actual number

    "Remember that when you ground the mag with the switch that it will also kill your tach output for that mag." According my my log files, that is not the case. I see exactly the same values for RPM L and RPM R under all conditions. Neither value drops to zero during a mag check. I have two...

    First Flight with the Dynon HDX Dynon ADSB and Dynon Transponder

    5 inches apart? That is MUCH too close. Each antenna should have ground plane around it, and the distance between them should be at least 2 feet. 3-4 feet is better. The transponder is a high-power pulsed transmitter. The ADSB-IN is a sensitive receiver. It is probably being completely...

    HDX re-boot in-flight - 3 times in 45 minutes - system event: 3

    I have two HDX screens that I have flown for about 300 hours on the last two years. I have never seen an uncommanded in-flight reboot. For the problem reported, can you save the log files? Do they show the system voltage? Was the voltage stable and correct before and after the reboots? Do you...

    Math and Conditional (Boolean) Calculations for display parameters?

    Thanks for the official answer, Dynon Staff. How about the Advanced Flight Systems screens?

    AP hunting

    Did you run the autopilot tuning procedure as described in the Autopilot Inflight Tuning Guide? https://www.dynonavionics.com/includes/guides/SkyView_Autopilot_In-Flight_Tuning_Guide-Rev_D.pdf

    Math and Conditional (Boolean) Calculations for display parameters?

    Well, yes and no.... The case you described is useful, and I might also sue that if it is available. But that is not exactly the logic I want to implement first. I want to use the Gear Up/Down switch to set a mode. Then in those two modes, I want the hydraulic pressures to be displayed with...

    Displaying Speed of Targets on Map

    I frequently tap on a traffic icon, then remember that Skyview doesn't do that. So I pick up the iPad, open FlyQ, tap on the traffic and see all the information. That info was passed on from the Dynon via WiFi, so I know it's in there. Would like to be able to display additional info about...

    SV-MAG-236 "Losing" Calibration?

    Defective USB memory stick? Where is the magnetometer calibration information stored? Flash memory in the Magnetometer? Flash memory in the Skyview?

    VNAV

    Consider this a feature request then... Dynon Software Team: Please add the capability to define visual approach descents on a per-airport basis, rather than global. > Per the User Guide, Rev J, pages 5-56 and 5-57, the approach angle, the distance at the airport and the altitude at the...

    Math and Conditional (Boolean) Calculations for display parameters?

    Yes, I want two complete separate ranges for RYG. If I could use a conditional in the definition, it would be easy. Just one line might be something like: Red: If GearDown, 0-300 psi, Else 1000-5000 psi.

    Math and Conditional (Boolean) Calculations for display parameters?

    I want to write some conditional math calculations to determine whether a parameter is displayed as green/yellow/red. For example, in my aircraft, I have a hydraulically actuated landing gear. If the gear is UP, the HydUp pressure should be ~1000 psi and the HydDown pressure should be ~0-20...

    Determining static position error

    To measure and correct static port position errors, you need to fly past a fixed point at widely varying speeds while reading the altimeter. I use my airport's tower roofline as a precise visual constant. I can fly past the tower at 70 knots, then 200 knots and note the altitude difference. If...

    Determining static position error

    This explains how to adjust PITOT errors if, and only if, there is no STATIC error. The static port position error must be corrected first, before using the GPS speeds to measure the pitot pressure errors.
