Could someone in Dynon please consider increasing the legibility of the ASI & altimeter read-outs in a firmware update to the D10A? I'd love to buy a D10A for my little LSA-type aircraft but I have noticed that they are both a bit of a chore to read. Especially the altimeter, although 'magnified', requires the eye to linger longer more that I feel comfortable with. I noticed this in a friend's plane, mentioned it and he says he's hoping to up-size for that very reason. I guess it might only take a tiny amount of code to make the font a bit bolder and maybe the boxes slightly bigger. There may be some cockpits having the EFIS close and almost perfectly aligned where this could be the perfect PFD. I won't say the name but there's at least 1 competitor that makes ASI, altimeter & heading extremely easy to scan. I'd still like a Dynon.

One thing you can do is go into the SETUP menu, the hit MORE until you see STYLE. The CLASSIC option relocates the airspeed and altitude numbers, and they're quite a bit bigger. The modern style has smaller numbers but locates the digital value in the middle of the tape like most other EFISes do.
