Like many other owners, I only have one Dynon Skyview display and, after having my LCD display malfunctioned while flying (twice), I decided to install a backup attitude indicator but, what about the my engine data? Even with the LCD issue, the engine data is still there (in my cases, the WiFi connection continued to work fine) but you cannot see because it requires your Skyview to display.
Using Dynon's data exposure via Wi-Fi, I created the smallest engine monitor repeater for my aircraft (quick video below). After a few tests, I am happy with the results. It provides the following data:
- CHT/EGT
- MAP
- RPM
- Battery volts and amp
- Oil temp and pressure
- Fuel available, pressure and flow
- Cabin temperature (requires an external sensor)
- Lidar altitude (requires an external Garmin Lidar sensor)
All in a very compact, yet easy to read, display (thanks to Vern, from https://www.huvver.tech/, for being such an inspiration). All you need is your Skyview Wi-Fi adapter and a USB cable to charge the unit.
This is not a redundancy solution. It is just another way to get Skyview data in another display.
Let me know your thoughts!
