1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Dynon Avionics SkyView HDX system! This section provides some
important cautionary information and general usage instructions for this guide.
The printed version of this guide is in grayscale. Some figures and diagrams contain important
color information. Reference the electronic version of this guide to view it in color.
Before You Fly
We strongly recommended that you read this entire guide before attempting to use SkyView in
flight. Additionally, we encourage you to spend time on the ground familiarizing yourself with
the operation of the system. While first learning to use the system in the air, we recommend
you have a backup pilot with you in the aircraft. Finally, we encourage you to keep this guide in
the aircraft with you at all times. This document is designed to give you quick access to
information that might be needed in flight. In a flying situation, it is your responsibility to use
the system and the guide prudently.
Warning
Dynon Avionics’ products incorporate a variety of precise, sensitive electronics. SkyView
products do not contain any field/user-serviceable parts. Units found to have been taken apart
may not be eligible for repair under warranty. Additionally, once a Dynon Avionics unit is
opened up, it is not considered airworthy and must be serviced at the factory.
Video Training
This guide is intended to familiarize a new SkyView HDX pilot with the basics of operating a
SkyView system. No printed (or electronic) guide such as this can substitute for “seeing it in
action”, and thus Dynon Avionics aims to provide various instructional videos, including a
complete SkyView operations course – see www.dynonavionics.com/videos. These videos help
new owners quickly learn the basics so they can safely start flying with the system. Also, current
SkyView owners can gain in-depth knowledge of many of the more advanced or complex
features.
About this Guide
This guide helps you configure and get acquainted with SkyView HDX’s many functions and
facilitates quick access to vital information. If you have a SkyView SE, or SkyView Classic/Touch
system, this is not the correct guide for those products. Each has its own dedicated guide: the
SkyView SE Pilot’s User Guide, and the SkyView Pilot’s User Guide, available at
docs.dynonavionics.com. For detailed technical and installation information, refer to the
SkyView Classic / SE / HDX System Installation Guide, also available at docs.dynonavionics.com.
This guide is revised, at a minimum, several times per year, usually coinciding with the release
of a new version of SkyView firmware, or introduction of new SkyView-related products from
