Dynon Skyview & 912is

by Gary Taylor in 912iS Technical Questions 3 years ago

Hi Guys,

Im getting an aircraft with a 912is, the cockpit will have a dynon skyview panel.

The question is, will i need to have installed 2 x red cube / fuel tranducers to have the skyview calculate the fuel qty in the tanks via a K factor number....

The reason is, that i had a skyranger aircraft before, and i had red cubes installed on the 912uls and a MGL fuel calculator that through fuel flow, worked out how much fuel was being used and and gave a very close estimate of what was left in the tanks...

Any help would be appreciated

Regards

Hi Gary,

No need for the red cubes, as the ECU will tell the Skyview the fuel flow over the CAN bus. It is only the fuel pressure that requires a separate transducer. No clever black box on your ULS to do the same thing.

You will still have the same 'virtual fuel tank' facility as you had previously. Just tell the SkyView what fuel you've got on board (or press the 'fill tanks' button if you do that) and then the computer will use your fuel flow to calculate what fuel has been used and then take that away from the previous total.

The above FF4 and Red Cube was installed in my skyranger, worked well within a 1.5Ltrs, took a while to get the exact K factor number, but once done, worked a treat
