Kent, I would suggest a G5 as a nice upgrade to your single GDU system. Not only does it give you a backup EFIS but it also talks via the CAN bus to your GDU allowing you to use the single knob on the G5 to adjust the baro setting. :-)

EDIT: Never mind... you said minimums, not baro settings.

Dynon has added the display of Faults via a recent SkyView software update. A Rotax 912iS is in my near future, as is a Garmin G3Xtouch. I would love to see the addition of Faults display added.

Hello Michael - Not to worry, if you have a Rotax 912iS FADEC engine you can see detailed FADEC status and fault information simply by accessing config mode on your G3X Touch system.

Checklists as an optional page on the main display screen.

Having to go back to them on the main screen isn't terrible, but it keeps losing my spot.

Discrete Input (momentary switch - ACKNOWLEDGE BUTTON) to cancel MASTER WARNING and MASTER CAUTION LIGHTS. E.g. if one of the MASTER WARN or MASTER CAUT indicators depressed, it would send the signal to GAD27 or GEA24 and acknowledge the warning or caution msg without touching the screen.

Feature request: GMA 245(R) discrete input for pause/resume of Bluetooth audio source. (Possibly use the existing PLAY KEY discrete input for this, either when Bluetooth audio is playing or as a configurable option in lieu of the current functionality.)

Default Weather via Internet

The ability to show weather via internet connection (hotspot wifi from cell phone) for us non ADSB europe flyers would be nothing short of amazing. Basically what the Area 660 can now do. Thanks
