I've upgraded my -6A to include a Dynon Skyview system and wondering if what I saw today is normal.
Situation is this: sitting in the hangar, the attitude display is solid. Field elevation from the AWOS dialed shows the correct field elevation, attitude indicates wings level and approximately 4.5? nose up (the -6A sits slightly nose high). All good.
The problem happened when the GPS2020 receiver managed to lock onto four satellites (shown via the GPS status display) through the open windows/door of the hangar. The attitude display started swinging up, down, left, and right. Disabling the GPS caused a reversion to normal steady display.
Is this normal? Is the Dynon so dependent on GPS information that it's attitude display becomes unreliable with questionable GPS reception?
