Gone from Bad to Worse

[DonFromTX]

My ADAHRS bit the dust, got it back from Dynon all repaired, now this shows up.  Do I need to reinstall these things?  Autopilot servos and transponder were working fine previously, as well as ADSB-In.

Just need to do what it says a Compass cal & a configure of the systems - should be good to go then

You likely don't have power on a bus that powers the servos, transponder, and ADS-B.

You will need to do a compass cal since it's a new compass.

Well DUH! Someone had accidentally switched off the avionics and AP switches!I still have another problem, when I turn on the AP, the servos VIOLENTLY moves the stick around and make an alarming buzzing when doing it. I quickly switch off the AP, what would be causing this? Earlier I thought it was because the ADAHRS was showing inverted and crazy flight, not so any more.

Don,
Depending on what mode you are in on the ground, this is expected. You're likely asking it to turn.

Do a servo test and make sure via that method that the servos are being controlled correctly.

Was not able to find a "Servo Test" but maybe this screenshot might help, should it read "Reversed: Yes"? I was unable to change the yes to no.

Page 10-16 of the Install manual.

There's no issue with reversed.

His ADAHRS looks to be upside down?
Usually the blue side is up while on the ground.

Holy crap, you are right!  Why did I not notice that. That makes the SECOND time I installed the ADAHRS upside down! And they let guys like me build airplanes, jeez!

OK, does this look more correct?  The airplane was right side up, the ADAHRS was upside down!

It looks like you may still have some more re-configuring to do. The AP does not look to be configured (evidenced by the lack of the AP bar status area in the top-left portion of the top bar. After you did your SkyView Network configuration, you would need to go through the AP servo calibration process so that the system sees your servos (you shouldn't need to adjust the gains and other AP settings, but you need to make the system aware of the new ADAHRS/servo combination. It's also not clear why your COM radio status isn't being displayed anymore. Give us a call at 425-402-0433 so we can give you some more personal attention here.
