The latest firmware updates seem to have fixed most of the issues I had (endless reboot and no traffic function). So a big thanks to Rainier for this. A couple of issues remain which fall into the annoying category as opposed to exceedingly frustrating. AoA. I have successfully calibrated and has th...

I turned Automatic Flight detect off. Traffic monitoring enabled. Didn’t do the manual flight recording on. In the air, pressing the soft key for traffic does bring up the list of traffic, but when I exit that screen, the EFIS then reboots and the autopilot goes crazy etc for a little while. Steffen...

Cant get the AoA function to work at all. I installed a single port (relative) AoA pitot (30 degrees down). Static connected to other AoA port on the MX1. I run through the three calibrations (minimum AOA at cruise, near stall clean, near stall landing configuration). Diagnostics page shows nothing ...

Update. Loaded latest firmware. Still does endless reboot loop with traffic enabled. Reboot starts once airspeed reaches around 30kias. Might try fiddling with ‘flight recording’.

Thanks Lane. What version firmware are you using and where did you get it? Cheers, Mark

Has anyone got a fix for the frozen screen and endless reboot cycling? My MX1 does this when I have ‘Traffic enabled’ in the settings and the ASI is greater than 40kts. I have a Skyecho2 connected to the MX1 via the Enginebridge wifi gateway. I have the version 16 firmware. The traffic ‘enabled’ wor...

Thanks.

I’ve just been setting up and learning the internal AP in the MX1. So far I’m very impressed with the servos (particularly the low torque when turned off) and the programming of the system. I’m wanting to experiment with the ‘synthetic GPS based ILS’ however I can’t work out what [Glide slope contro...

Brad, I’ve scanned them in, but the quality is not fantastic. You can get them digitally free from Geoscience (they aren’t called WAC charts but they are the same) and use the MGL map tools to create the correct files for your EFIS. Mark
