Dynon Avionics SkyView HDX - Missed Approach (Go Around)

Autopilot Operation
SkyView HDX Pilot’s User Guide – Revision B 8-29
(1) If the GPS does not support auto-switching from GPS to NAV, you must
manually perform this action by using AUTOPILOT > HSI SRC.
(2) Some devices, such as the Garmin 430, 430W and GTN series, can
automatically change from the GPS to the localizer and send a signal to
the SkyView to automatically change the HSI source at the appropriate
time. If your external GPS/NAV device is configured with this behavior
enabled, one important detail is that such devices ALWAYS control
whether its GPS or NAV radio is providing guidance. Thus, when
configured for auto-switching, you must use that device’s CDI or
NAV/GPS toggle to change whether it’s NAV or GPS guidance is shown
on SkyView HDX’s HSI. SkyView HDX’s own HSI SRC button can only see
EITHER the GPS or NAV side of the device at any time.
Missed Approach (Go around)
The Go Around (GA) function of the autopilot allows you to quickly manage the transition
from a descending precision approach to a climbing missed approach. The function is
available when the autopilot is active in VNAV mode (such as following the glide slope) and
replaces the NOSE UP button once captured. Upon activation of the GA function the active
vertical autopilot mode switches to VS with the default climb vertical speed target or IAS
with the current indicated airspeed target. The lateral autopilot mode switches to TRK with
the current track. ALT hold mode at the altitude bug is always armed. The active vertical
mode is determined by Autopilot Setup.
This go around feature is solely intended to initiate the missed approach –
specifically the transition in vertical navigation. It does not follow the published go
around procedure. SkyView is not a substitute for an IFR navigator, has no
awareness of approaches and never should be used as the primary means of
navigating while flying IFR.
1. Once arriving at the missed approach point, press the GA button (formerly NOSE UP)
on AUTOPILOT page or the NOSE UP button on the Autopilot Control Panel. The
autopilot will annunciate “go around” and display “ADD POWER” in the PFD.
2. Press the NOSE UP or NOSE DN to set the desired climb out rate.
3. Select a new track direction or press HDG and select a new heading direction.
