1) Less steps to import flight plans
It is Dynon philosophy that HSI radials cannot be dialed with an OBS button - as would have been expected - but must be "dialed" importing a flight plan.
Fortunately this process, although handicapped by the fact that Skyview cannot store more than one flight plan, was relatively easy before Rev 10: there was a tab "Import".
In the new version 10.x, for some obscure reasons, this Fpl import has been complicated and buried deeper into the menu structure, such that more steps are necessary to "dial a radial".
To enhance the disgrace, when a flight plan is finally imported, a leg needs to be activated, which was not the case before (first leg was automatically active). So another scrolling to ACTIVATE LEG is necessary before a flight plan gets finally active.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Request: make Fpl importing/activation easier
2) Wrap around in selections
Dynon disables in most (but not all) button selections "wrap around": that scrolling BACK from the first item yields the last, and the inverse.
This is particularly clumsy in long lists, like waypoints and flight plans but also in some of Dynon's own menus.
Request: Allow generally: backwards/left turn from first item yields last, forward/right turn from last item yields first
