Dynon released SV Ver 6 yesterday - early! I downloaded it, did a fast manual study, uploaded it today and went flying.
I know Dynon seems to have abandoned the D-180 crowd, but their work in the SV arena is simply spectacular. I read the new Instruction Manual while waiting for my truck to get worked on. The autopilot is completely made-over (and after I studied the old setup ad nauseum to get it figured out!) It splits out the VFR pilot from the IFR pilot - you can pick which one you want. I tried both of them in-flight. The VFR offers many great features enabling a single button push to achieve various neat results - allowing you to go Wings Level, freeze your current Track and Altitude, or Nav heading and Altitude. The IFR guys get full Flight Director with choice of Winged Director Bars or Cross-pointers, MDA callouts, and more.
All the radio Push-Pull stuff is in there, I'll be wiring it up ASAP, ordered and received the shielded wire from SteinAir.
Amazing what software can do - upload a file and have a completely revamped flight deck system!
I am going to sign-off my Phase 1 Flight Testing tonight. My requirement was the standard 5 hours. I have 10.6 hrs Tach; 18.6 hrs Hobbs; 15 Flights, and 23 Landings.
