Version 15.1 Adds Yaw Damper, VP-X On HDX, Rotax 912 iS Fault Reporting, And More

Dynon has released SkyView version 15.1, which adds Yaw Damper capability, VP-X support on HDX, improved Rotax 912iS fault/troubleshooting information, and dozens more improvements and fixes.

Major 15.1 features include:

- Support for the new SV-ADSB-472 Dual Band Traffic and Weather Receiver
- Yaw Damper on SkyView HDX, Touch, and Classic
- VP-X support for SkyView HDX
- New Rotax 912 iS FAULTS menu to aid in engine installation and troubleshooting.
- Many improvements to existing features, such as scrollable checklists, improved QWERTY keyboard on touchscreens, toggleable airport flags, and more.

Dynon says there are two ways to update the software on your SkyView system, depending on your existing software version and where you are in the world. Method 1 packages all of the most commonly downloaded files into packages that are available for US and Western Europe systems. Method 2 requires that you download and load multiple files to your SkyView system individually.

The company also announced that its dual band SV-ADSB-472 receives ADS-B traffic via 978 MHz (UAT) and 1090 MHz is now shipping. In the U.S., it also receives free text and graphical weather from the FAA’s network of ADS-B ground stations.

Unlike portable ADS-B receivers, SkyView and AF-5000 pilots receive FULL ADS-B and radar traffic when the SV-ADSB-472 is paired with our Mode-S transponder and SV-GPS-2020. The remote mounted receiver utilizes an externally mounted antenna for superior ADS-B reception.

The smaller, dual band SV-ADSB-472 is priced at $795.

If you already own an SV-ADSB-470, Dynon has a trade-in program available for existing customers.
