The SkyView System is a powerful and flexible avionics platform, and new features will be added for years to come. Our commitment has been, and continues to be, to design and build the highest quality avionics available for homebuilt and Light Sport aircraft. Dynon uses the newest technologies and manufacturing techniques available, to allow us to sell avionics at the best price possible.

Current Features: Please see SkyView Features List for a detailed list of current features.

INTRODUCED IN May 2011: (Version 3.1 Firmware)

MULTI-LEG FLIGHT PLANNING:Create and manipulate flight plans with multiple waypoints right on your SkyView display. Or, use any computer-based flight planner that supports the GPX file format to create flight plans at home!

SkyView can be set up to provide turn anticipation between flight plan legs. When configured this way, SkyView starts its turn guidance in advance of a waypoint to fly a transition that doesn't overshoot the next leg.

For times that a flight plan isn't needed "direct-to" capability is still as easy to use as it has been in previous Navigation Mapping Software version.

EMS Serial Data Output: SkyView can now output complete, realtime RS-232 data from the sensors and other inputs that are connected to the SV-EMS-220.

INTRODUCED IN MARCH 2011: (Version 3.0 Firmware)

WORLDWIDE NAVIGATION DATA: Dynon Avionics and Jeppesen have entered into an agreement to provide Jeppesen NavData® and obstacle services for SkyView. The avionics data offering for Dynon Avionics allows light sport and experimental aircraft pilots anywhere in the world to enjoy Jeppesen navigation data. Included is airport information, runways, navaids, and Com and Nav frequencies. More information about ordering data from Jeppesen is shown here. SV-MAP-270 is required to use Jeppesen data.

SV-MAP-270 GPS NAVIGATION SOFTWARE: This software enhancement to SkyView is available at the one-time cost of $500. It includes the the ability to use GPS navigation, airport, obstacles, navaid, runway, and Com and Nav frequency data. The user interface to find and view data is highly intuitive and easy to use. FAA navigation and obstacle data for flights in the US can be downloaded for free on the Dynon website. Outside the US, navigation and obstacle data can be purchased from Jeppesen.

Free Trial Notes: SV-GPS-270 can be used as a free trial for 30 hours of flight time. The 30 hours become active upon installation of 3.0, and only flight hours count. (You may use the trial for as long as you want while stationary, before the the 30 flight hours are used.)

ENHANCED HSI: With 3.0 the HSI display is larger with improved visibility.

G-METER: The SkyView G-Meter mixes a classic analog display with some digital magic to offer amazing graphics and functionality. Because you don't need navigation while performing aerobatics, the G-Meter is pilot selectable to replace the HSI making it large and easily visible. Magnetic heading always remains visible. Resettable Min/Max G's flank the instantaneous value. The G-Meter can be toggled on and off manually, or it can be set to pop up on user-defined G thresholds.

COMING SOON: In the next several months. (We are working on many features in parallel, and every item requires extensive testing before we release it. So this schedule is not a guarantee of the release date of any specific feature.)

• Weather
• Vertical Power VP-X support

TOP SECRET: No schedule yet, but these are some of new features we are working on to continue to enhance your SkyView System. We're not telling all that we are planning... sometimes we like to surprise everyone.

• Coupled autopilot vertical navigation
• SkyView Com radios
• Highway-in-the-Sky
• Enhanced mapping and charting... more data at your finger tips
