Popular Sport Aviation EFIS Builder Continues To Push The
Envelope
Check out a seeming majority of the current crop of LSAs and
your likely to see one of Dynon Avionic's uniquely compact
experimental EFIS systems aboard. Check out a number of
experimental aircraft and you're still likely to see a Dynon in the
panels.

Dynon Avionics entered the turbulent sport aviation marketplace
with the announcement of their EFIS-D10 barely eight years ago.
This compact offering packed a lot of EFIS capability into a
standard 3-1/8" panel hole, making it an easy choice for pilots
looking for lots of info without sacrificing an equivalent amount
of panel space. The product began shipping in March 2003, and has
since been joined by a follow-on product, a larger form-factor
variant as well as a number of engine information system
products.
The current iteration of the EFIS-D10, called the EFIS-D10A
boasts some intriguing safety features... such as an optional
Angle-of Attack/Pitot design that alerts pilots of potential stall
conditions, as well as an optional Li-ion backup battery which can
maintain the instrument's functionality for as long as 2 hours in
the event of some mode of power interruption.

The unit's basic features revolve around a core 4 inch
(diagonal) display that consolidates all basic flight instruments
onto a single sunlight-readable, color LCD. Six buttons below the
display provide control over instrument configuration, flight
functions, and initial calibration chores. A Dynon designed Air
Data, Attitude and Heading Reference System (ADAHRS) is contained
inside the D-10A housing, which simplifies installation and
trouble-shooting a great deal. Dynon also tells ANN that this
system is unusually tolerant of "aggressive flight maneuvers," and
will automatically correct itself when the system's standard
parameters are exceeded. Dynon notes that the unit can not be
damaged by aerobatics or unusual attitudes.

Dynon's EFIS-D100 is a larger EFIS system, with the claim of
being "the most affordable large screen Electronic Flight
Information System on the market today." The 7" wide-screen display
integrates multiple flight instruments, including airspeed,
altitude, gyro-stabilized magnetic compass, turn rate, slip/skid
ball, bank angle, and vertical speed. The D100 also includes a
clock/timer, g-meter, voltmeter and density altitude/true airspeed
calculator.
Aero-TV Checks Out The Latest From Dynon
Avionics!!!
About Aero-TV: It's DEFINITELY Show
Time!!!!
OK, folks, here we go... we are NOW initiating the first
feature programming series for Aero-TV... we're going to take it
slow, but we're also going to try and be steady about this. DO
UNDERSTAND that this is the most complex media program we've ever
undertaken and what you're seeing is just the tip of the iceberg...
but from here on out, we will be doing our best to educate,
inform, and entertain YOU about all aspects of the exciting worlds
of aviation and aerospace.

If you've been an observer of the media and associated media
industries over the last few years, it's not hard to mistake the
fact that a massive revolution is taking place. Old sources for
news and information are falling by the wayside, having to change
their modus operandi or risk obsolescence (or extinction).
Electronic media and print media are both under the assault of
progress, and the online world has been a cornerstone for
revolutionary change.
We've been ready to go for a while, but to be honest, there's so
much more to this program than we've alluded to, and so we've been
building and planning a massive new organization within ANN. That
said, we're hiring talented new people as
fast as we can find them (a far more difficult
task than we had imagined -- REALLY good people are hard to find),
and we're brainstorming at speeds that would make a deorbiting
Space Shuttle feel like a slug. Suffice it to say that we wanted to
do this right, rather than right-now, and that the development of
this program has been the most carefully pursued undertaking we've
ever undertaken.
E-I-C Note: The
complete feature shown above is embedded in this
story, with most of the slick and useful functionality
otherwise available on the main Aero-TV
site (which will be upgraded aggressively
over the next few weeks). The ability to embed a video on
another web page is but one of the hundreds of amazing little
features that we've worked hard on, for many months now, to
implement in different phases of the initial release of
Aero-TV. It is, BY NO MEANS, the only way to enjoy unaltered
Aero-TV programming on other parts of the web... as we have
extensive plans for future functionality, but this feature
allows those with an interest in a specific Aero-TV News or Feature
program to embed it on a different web site, though we must
note that we reserve the right to forbid such use for those sites
or purposes that we do not feel fit in with the proper mission of
the Aero-News Network, Inc.

Webmasters or Administrators of well-trafficked aviation or
aerospace related sites, are welcome to contact the Publisher to
start conversations on how they may be able to leverage some of the
immense power of Aero-TV programming for their sites and
constituency by clicking the I Want Aero-TV For
MY Website! link.
