Stall warning horn

Hello all-can anyone assist. I fly a Bristell NG5 with Dynon HDX. The stall warning inhibit is set to 35knts. On take off the stall warning sounds despite not being close to the stall - it continues for around 10 ear blistering minutes even when in level flight doing 85 knots until the green bars on the stall warning display start appearing. No idea what’s causing it because in straight and level it shouldn’t be sounding at all. I’ve tried recalibrating and the same thing happens. It’s as though something needs to “warm” up first….Anyone have an ideas please? Many thanks Graham

When you did the stall calibration, what was the stall speed. My Dynon’s beep will start to sound at around 40kts but it stopped when I am at take off speed

Around 46 knts- we cannot do a full stall in the Bristell due to potential severe wing drop so that's as far as I am comfortable with. However, the issue isn't that as such. During ground roll - no stall warning, immediately after take off stall warning even when the nose is lowered to get the benefit of ground effect. Then I accelerate to 67knts climb speed - there should be no stall warn at this point but it remains on. I level out in the cruise after a couple of minutes (max) at 90 knts - the stall warning continues for another 3 or 4 minutes until the bar indicators on the dynon screen start turning green. After 5 minutes the calabration display is fully green as it should be. Basically its as though something is warming up for it to work properly. Those 3 to 4 minutes straight and level flight should have sorted any stall warning out but it continues for 3 or 4 mins then stops - its really weird!

If you cannot perform a full stall than the system will be confused when the stall occurs. You should get a CFI to do a full stall calibration if you are uncomfortable with a wing drop. I suggest you delete all of the stall data from the Dynon HDX EFIS because you should not fly with bad stall horn data. Lots of airplanes will drop a wing at stall so you should be comfortable flying and performing these maneuvers . I am surprised you don’t do this at your flight reviews
