Wind direction and speed not working correctly..... any possiblity to tune ore set up?

[Skybet]

Hi There, on our Tecnam p2002 Sierra with twin Skyview Classic with updated softwre the wind is not being properly calculated, it seems to always be coming from the nose of the plane whatever the real direction, even in significan winds (15 knots on ground)

Is there a place in the settings where this can be tested and fixed?

This is a common problem if your static port is in an area of low pressure so check the installation of your static source. It will also adversely affect your altimeter indication, IAS indication, TAS calculations as well as calculated wind speed and wind direction. You can read how I found and fixed this at my web page: http://puertoricoflyer.com/ in the MAINTENANCE section, SkyView TAS Calibration.

Also make sure your ADAHRS magnetic heading calibration has been done. This can affect your winds calculation, but not normally on all headings.

That is a lot of stuff, thank you so much. The plane is a Tecnam P2002 Sierra, so I'll check the calibrations, both of TAS and Magnetic. Anyone has succeded in the full process?

I almost forgot, this will also happen if the static line inside the fuselage has a leak or has come off. The air pressure inside the airplane is lower than outside so it will give the same problems as a static port in the wrong place. IOW it will affect your altimeter indication, IAS indication, TAS calculations as well as wind speed and wind direction. Given yours is a factory built LSA the static port "should" be in the right place.
