Now that a AHRS By Levil has been made that links to the ipad giving the usual info of a AHRS but also ADSB , I would love to see these integrated into SkyDemon ,I could dream about customizable split screen nav and instruments,now how good would SkyDemon running in the background with AHARS and ADSB overlaid

My views on this. You don’t want an AHRS or similar in SD. Before seeing the light and converting to SD with a PAW we used Garmin Pilot with a Garmin 39 which had an AHRS function. In practice the AHRS was useless and I’d hate to have been reliant on it even in the direst of emergencies. The problem was the lag between the AHRS and the ipad meant that it was unusable to correct a/c attitude with any kind of reliability. I suspect this was due to them communicating wirelessly. In the end we fitted a secondhand AVMAP EFIS we got off eBay.

BTW Garmin vs Skydemon. - Night and Flippin Day !
