Installed Skyview 3.3 and now Im getting an alert that says "need user mag cal". What is this and what do I do. BTW, 3.3 is great now I finally have audio for the AOA I've had for a year :)

You need to do a magnetic compass calibration... it is a new message with this release that checks to see if you have a valid calibration for all of your installed ADAHRS units.  They are calibrated out of the box but not for your particular installation; many times they work 'good enough' that you don't notice a need.  Now the software gives notice.

What Stephen said. We continue to add more and better internal checks and warnings.

I had the same issue, I commented under the "3.3" discussion. Support confirmed what was mentioned here. I am comforted that it picked this up. No idea why it did as my mag was always solid but the fact that it called this to my attention leads me to know the Dynon continues to work on checks and balance and their alerting had more benefits than the audio warnings.
Nice job Dynon!
