Dynon has unveiled the D30 Touchscreen Electronic Flight Display, the newest addition to its Certified product line. This innovative display serves as a backup set of flight instruments in STC'd SkyView HDX systems, which are now eligible for installation in over 600 type-certified aircraft models, according to Dynon.
Featuring a 4-inch diagonal, high-resolution touchscreen with excellent sunlight readability, the D30 also includes an integrated backup battery capable of providing up to five hours of runtime. Measuring just 3.7 inches in depth, the D30 can be easily installed in a slightly modified 3 1/8-inch instrument hole using a docking ring mounting bracket, as depicted in the accompanying photo. Dynon explained that "The bracket allows for one-screw installation and removal of the instrument," facilitating quick and hassle-free installation.
As reported by AVweb sister publication KITPLANES, "Dynon Avionics' successful SkyView HDX EFIS exists in both Experimental and certified forms, but new installations have been complicated by one fact: the certified system is keyed to the EFIS-D10A, which has been out of production for some time. The solution is the newly introduced D30."
The D30 Touchscreen Electronic Flight Display, along with the five-hour backup battery, is available at a retail price of $1,995. This innovative offering ensures enhanced safety and convenience for pilots relying on the SkyView HDX systems in their certified aircraft.
