Updated my Dynon Skyview Classic to 15.4.7 firmware this weekend - a few observations
1. Loading 15.4.7 firmware took about 5 minutes to load, but my GPS 2020 showed it needed an additional update to....that took about 15 minutes longer. Be patient.
2. My EGT inidcations seem to be hyper sensentive to any changes in mixture or turning on the smoke system. Before 15.4.7 firmware, turning on my smoke system did nothing to my EGT, now it shows a near instant cooling affect / decrease by about 600 deg on the two cyclinders I have injectors. Using the LOP function, the EGTs seem to jump around quite a bit at Peak / LOP than before the 15.4.7 firmware. Not sure if the sensor updates have anything to do with this or it just my system.
3. While flying through the traffic rich DFW class B, traffic now seems to be less prone to ghosting / drop out, as compared to my Garmin ADSB in. This might be due to my GPS 2020 needing an update.
4. My Skyview WiFi now links up great with my foreflight for ADSB in traffic and weather....got a great exercise with it yesterday. It used to be problematic.
5. The 15.4.7 firmware added 0.0000865 kts to my cruise speed.
