CT4ME Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Dynon has acquired a company known for AOA technology...Advanced Flight Systems. The bottom line... this is neat... you should be able to add a $200 sensor to your bird, and your Skyview will be able to show Angle of Attack info... More info at By Dan Johnson....

Jim Meade Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Is that web site worth the $29/year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingMonkey Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Sky view didn't do AoA before this? That seems...strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT4ME Posted July 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 I see some old posts, 2012, mentioning AOA on skyview... it's a bit confusing... check the press release... http://www.dynonavionics.com/docs/news_AFS-Acquisition_22July2013.html tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT4ME Posted July 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Re: ByDanJohnson.... I think the site would probably be worth it for a newbie, especially if they are cruising/comparing airplanes & specs. Otherwise, it's best feature, LSA news, is free. tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT2kflyer Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 I've had AOA on my Dynon 100 display for 4 years............. with the right pitot it works just fine. Looks just like the picture. I like it and use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 AOA is also on the D100 in my '06 SW. Wouldn't it be great if it were on a heads up display. (Not even a need to peek inside on final) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not even a need to peek inside on final) I agree 100% on benefit of AOA on HUD and would pay some money for it. From what I see in recent tech announcements, we're going to see more HUD for iPad based equipment in the next couple of years. I hope that's the case. The next thing we need is easier, faster and accurate data entry. Maybe they'll get voice figured out - I don't know. Automobiles and cell phones may lead the way there. It sounds like exciting times ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mocfly Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Does the AOA that comes with the Dynon system have an audible alert? AOA's that i have seen are mounted on the glareshield within the pilots field of view. Seems kinda gimmicky putting it in the display as small as it is and in such a location.

Roger Lee Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 It should be set up through the intercom for an alert, but you should never hear it because you're not going to ever get that situation. Are You! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Meade Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 The Dynon D100 AOA has an audible alert. I turned mine on today. It's in the AOAALRM menu. You can set the color and zone of the AOA for it to come on and you can set the airspeed below which it will not sound unless it is coming down from an activation. I'm tweaking mine. I assume the SkyView is similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug G. Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 I believe you can set it (at least on Skyview) to start making the sound when it is in the yellow...so you should hear it fairly often on landing unless your landings look more like carrier landings. The output is adjustable in the settings menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Meade Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 You can set the alarm to come on at low yellow, mid yellow, high yellow and red. Start with high yellow or red or you'll be hearing it all the time. Go up to altitude and do some approaches to stalls at various flap settings and throttle settings. Helps to have a helper along to change settings so you can try out various settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
