Love your App. It is great for navigation and flight planning.

One great feature what I would like to see and also would pay for is a virtual Glas Cockpit like Garmin does have. So you would have all information with one view.

You could use split screen view wit skydemon and for example ilevil's efis app. This way you have the full flexibility in choosing whatever adhrs hardware you want to use. The iLevil ones even act as gdl90 position and traffic source for skydemon (should, havent had a chance to test traffic, position works fine)

I see very little to no benefit having this functionality integrated into SD directly over a split screen view.

@sky painter
In my case i am using the ilevil wit the accompanying app in my experimental aircraft as backup instrument to my primary electronic PFD. We are required to have backups for airspeed, turn coordinator, altitude and compass and the backup must either be analogue or it must have an independant power source. The ilevil comes with its own batteries and pitot/static ports, the tablet in my airplane as well as my phone have their own batteries too and hence qualify as such a backup without eating up sparse panel space in a vfr aircraft with a small pannel or weighing a lot.. 

Split screen works perfect for this though
