New Experimental Products and Features at AirVenture 2024

Dynon returns to AirVenture Oshkosh 2024 with a variety of new product and feature announcements for homebuilt and light sport aircraft. We'll also host an expanded forum/seminar schedule for pilots all week long. Read on for all of the news that we're making at Oshkosh...

Safety-Enhancing Emergency Glide Feature for SkyView HDX and Advanced AF-5000/600
Dynon introduces a potentially life-saving feature in its upcoming experimental SkyView HDX Software version 17.1 and an upcoming software version for Advanced Flight Systems AF-5000/6000 series avionics. The new Emergency Glide feature is designed to help reduce workload in a situation where pilots are easily overwhelmed.
Emergency Glide is activated when a pilot presses and holds the nearest (NRST) button. This immediately engages the autopilot at a pre-programmed best-glide speed. Simultaneously, SkyView HDX will locate the nearest airport within gliding distance, considering both wind and terrain. If the system finds a suitable airport, SkyView HDX will command the autopilot to navigate the aircraft to the airport immediately. At the same time, the airport identifier is loaded into the Com radio, making all available Com radio frequencies for that airport available at the touch of a button using Dynon’s unique airport-centric user interface. As the aircraft arrives at the airport, the autopilot initiates a banked turn to circle the airport while alerting the pilot to take control of the aircraft.
Introducing The New SV-COM-PANEL Com Radio Control Panel with OLED Display
Dynon is unveiling a new version of its SV-COM-PANEL Com Radio Control Panel with an upgraded display. The updated Control Panel features a high-contrast OLED display for improved visibility in all lighting conditions. The OLED display features an “inverted” white on black display color scheme compared to its predecessor, which both complements the SV-COM-PANEL’s design and improves readability.

The OLED-equipped SV-COM-PANEL features the same groundbreaking user interface that Dynon pioneered with the original product. By integrating deeply with the SkyView system, the COM Radio tunes frequencies by airport and station type - rather than by spinning in a number - at the touch of a button. Once an airport is selected via the avionics screen or the SV-COM-PANEL directly, the pilot can press dedicated one-touch buttons on the Control Panel to instantly tune Tower/CTAF, Ground, ATIS/AWOX/Weather, and ATC Approach/Departure frequencies. Pilots can also send frequencies over from their SkyView or AF-5000/6000 series airport information pages, or manually using dual-concentric knobs.

The new OLED Com Radio Control Panel is a drop-in replacement for the sunsetting legacy version, with identical panel cut-outs and electrical connections. It is compatible with all Dynon SkyView and Advanced Flight Systems AF-5000/6000 series avionics systems.

Pilots visiting AirVenture can experience the new Control Panel firsthand at the Dynon booth in Hangar D. The new OLED Com Radio Control Panel will be available for purchase in the coming weeks at a list price of $438.
ADVANCEDPANEL.store Expanded and Fully Stocked
The recently-launched ADVANCEDPANEL.store is now stocked with a broad range of components and harnesses that allow any homebuilder that is equipping with Dynon and Advanced to feature the Advanced Control Module in their aircraft. Formerly only available with fully-built ADVANCEDPANEL Complete products, the ACM can now be purchased via the ACM Jumpstart Kit on ADVANCEDPANEL.store

In addition to the ACM Jumpstart kit, which contains the ACM and the core set of harnesses needed in every aircraft, ADVANCEDPANEL.store also stocks a comprehensive selection of ACM-centric harnesses to minimize installation time. After purchasing the ACM Jumpstart Kit, pilots can use ADVANCEDPANEL.store to finish their system with these harnesses and their remaining avionics components. Recent introductions include complete airframe harnesses for the RV-10, RV-14, and the RV7/9 that break-out perfectly-sized wires to practically every electrical peripheral in the aircraft.

Experimental Dynon D30 Touchscreen Electronic Flight Display
The Dynon D30 is now in stock and available for experimental and light sport aircraft owners. The D30 is designed to serve as a backup set of flight instruments in SkyView HDX and Advanced AF-5000/6000 series systems.
The D30 features a large, 4”, sunlight readable, high resolution touchscreen display. The display provides pilots with critical backup flight information, including attitude, airspeed, altitude, vertical speed, turn rate, and slip/skid indications. 

An integrated backup battery provides up to 5 hours of runtime in the event of aircraft power failure, giving pilots confidence that they have access to critical flight information when it is needed most.

Compact at only 3.7” deep, the D30 mounts in a slightly modified 3-⅛” instrument hole via a docking ring mounting bracket. The bracket allows for one-screw installation and removal of the instrument.

List price for the Dynon D30 is $1995. It is available now through Dynon and authorized dealers.
