Re: TAS Correction

I had my IFR cert done today no static or pitot leaks and the GRT IAS indication was dead on with the test equipment. I guess that I goofed up the 4 GPS test that I was benchmarking against or the older Dynon had an issue with the OAT and/or TAS calculations. I will do more testing today. With our s...

Re: TAS Correction

I would suggest you fix the problem. If you're showing 60 kias but really at 55 kias you are very close to a stall. IAS errors are usually due to pitot-static problems, particularly static port placement and design. Little things, like the shape and thickness of the port, matter. Bob, I have the st...

Re: Multiple GPS sources

Thanks Jeff. Just a quick clarification. If I both GPS's are set for external, can I still create and use an internal flight plan? I understand that I can copy the external, but want to be sure that I could put a flight plan directly into the HXr, eventhough both GPS's are set for external.

Multiple GPS sources

I am in the planning stages for installing my HXr system. I will be integrating both a 396 and a KLN-90B GPS. As I am reading the Setup manual, it seems that I can only install two GPS'. However, it appears that in order to use the internal flight planning of the HXR, one of the 2 GPS must be a virt...
