Mooney Fun! | Formation Flight to Trenton Robbinsville (N87) | Dynon SkyView HDX | N6887N

[PilotFun101]

 

Consider Subscribing and Fly Along! I flew down to N87 with another Mooney Pilot in formation. There is nothing like 2 Mooney's flying together. What great planes! Talked a little about Dynon's Autopilot. **Reminder** June 12th from 11a-3p is our fly-in. Come join the fun! Thanks for Flying Along!

At 12:38 in the video:  Are you aware there’s a 13-17mph (assuming you read mph and not knots) difference on your ASI tape between your PFD and your D10?

At 17:20, there’s a 22mph difference.

Additionally, your “CAL?” message to the right of the speed tape likely indicates your AOA isn’t calibrated…assuming you have AOA installed.

Personally, I’d suggest having your avionics tech look at these items.  Assuming the PFD ASI tape is correct, and your PFD fails to where you’re relying on the standby D10, you could be in serious trouble at slower speeds, as you’ll be indicating anywhere from 13-22mph slower than you’re actually flying.

Let me know if I’m missing anything.

Hi @StevenL757 I took the CAL? off the screen in my newer videos that will be out soon. I don't have AOA installed yet.  Maybe in the future. The D10 is in MPH and the speed tap on the SkyView is in Knots.  I changed the SkyView a while back to knots and left the D10 in MPH just as a reference for now.  I been flying MPH for 14yrs or so. Its nice to take a quick glans over to the D10 once in a while for my MPH.  With my IFR training everything is in knots so I had to make the change. 

But thank you and good questions.
