Dynon Avionics Announces A New Remote Magnetometer For Skyview Plus An Upcoming Skyview 12.2 Skyview Software Release
Dynon Avionics, the leading Experimental and Light Sport avionics manufacturer, announces a new Remote Magnetometer for SkyView plus an upcoming SkyView 12.2 SkyView Software release.
“The New Remote Magnetometer adds additional installation flexibility for customers building SkyView into their aircraft," said Michael Schofield, Dynon Marketing Manager. "Meanwhile, the transponder update in SkyView 12.2 software demonstrates Dynon’s leadership and commitment to helping its customers properly equip for FAA 2020 ADS-B Out rule compliance.”
SkyView’s ADAHRS provides pilots with all their primary flight instruments in a compact package barely bigger than a deck of cards. In some aircraft, finding a suitable location for the ADAHRS is challenging due to competing location requirements for the air data, attitude, and magnetic heading sensors. To ease installation, Dynon now offers the SV-MAG-236, an optional remote magnetometer that lets customers install the magnetic sensors in an ideal location in the aircraft. The SV-MAG-236 has a list price of $180, but will be available at introduction for $140. The SV-MAG-236 is expected to be released in late April.
SkyView 12.2 includes a software update for SkyView’s SV-XPNDR-261 transponder. This update adds support for the ADS-B+ data format required to use the Garmin GTN and GNS (WAAS versions) IFR navigators as a GPS position source for FAA 2020 ADS-B mandate compliance credit. Pilots that have these navigators installed in their aircraft and connected to SkyView’s SV-XPNDR-261 are encouraged to update to SkyView 12.2 and enable ADS-B+ format support on both SkyView and their navigator. SkyView 12.2 is expected to be released in late April.
