New stuff from Dynon

[Denok]

Hello,
Does Dynon have any plans on having a TSO 146 GPS with IFR databases for HDX?
and
Does Dynon have any plans on making units with ADI and HSI capabilities similar to a Garmin GI-145 or G5?
Just asking because that would solve some issues I'm having in making my RV IFR capable.
Thanks,
Denis

You need a certified IFR navigator. Dynon works with most of them now for CDI functionality.

Been waiting years for Dynon to pull the trigger on a TSO'd GPS. Finally decided on the Garmin 175, along with a VAL 2000 for ILS capability. Both work great with a Skyview. The bottom line from my talking with them back when we use to have an Oshkosh get together was that the cost to develop a TSO'd GPS was prohibitive. However with the new Certified STC line out there maybe they will revisit the issue. I would not hold my breath. This is not a dig at Dynon, just basic economics. If they come up with one down the road my Garmin 175 will probably come out as I would expect Dynon's yearly update cost's to be significantly less. Just my 2 cents.

Nobody outside of Dynon knows what Dynon has back in the R&D lab, if anything. For today and the foreseeable future the answer is no, and you'll need to install a certified navigator connected to the Dynon ARINC-429.

The Skyview (and legacy) are all you need when coupled to a IFR GPS. Now I would say dual screen, dual ADAHRS and backup power is a must.

Outside of that you should have no trouble at all.

Dual ADAHRS might be considered optional if you have a completely standalone source of artificial horizon, like a G5 or similar, but the principle is the same - have a backup.
