Skydat DX2 Info Please...

Postby Charldup » Fri Feb 27, 2015 2:18 pm

I hope I don't sound too "dumb"..

My 1st trike on which I started flying, only had analog instruments, and I got very much used to them...

A couple of months ago I bought another trike which has analog gauges as well as a Skydat DX2 digital system on.

Because I only look at the analog gauges while flying, I have never really used the skydat while flying, but recently it started to interest me and I would like to understand it better.

I don't find info or user manuals online.

My problem is this, it has only 3 buttons, restart and +/- QNH. While standing on the ground with engine off, it shows 20 MP/H... :shock:

The vertical speed fluctuates up/down rapidly, as well as the glide ratio.


Is the anywhere I can restet the system? Or is there a problem with it? OR is it maybe normal?

Has anyone who uses this maybe got some tips and info for me? :oops:
