I've upgraded my -6A to include a Dynon Skyview system and wondering if what I saw today is normal.
Situation is this: sitting in the hangar, the attitude display is solid. Field elevation from the AWOS dialed shows the correct field elevation, attitude indicates wings level and approximately 4.5º nose up (the -6A sits slightly nose high). All good.
The problem happened when the GPS2020 receiver managed to lock onto four satellites (shown via the GPS status display) through the open windows/door of the hangar. The attitude display started swinging up, down, left, and right. Disabling the GPS caused a reversion to normal steady display.
Is this normal? Is the Skyview so dependent on GPS information that it's attitude display becomes unreliable with questionable GPS reception?
7" Display, one ADAHRS, one magnetometer, one 2020GPS, and two AP servos in the system running 14.0.7.3621 (my serial # is not affected by the other bug(s) in v14 - I need this version to see the 2020 GPS).
