If it helps I can also offer tests with a KRT2 radio which is available via an BLE-compatible device (esp32 based).

I have hard wired TRIG TY96, TY91, some Garmin radios, its no problem to test them all Smile
Afterwards we can try to connect Garrecht TRX-1500 air traffic over the same Bluetooth, because its also working in my plane over the same RS232 like autopilot, and its already supported in SD, only newer version AT-1, but sentences are the same.

Those features will be HUGE improvement in SD for all pilots Smile

Would you expect SkyDemon to send GPRMB sentences only, or also synthesize GPRMC sentences and similar?

GPRMC, GPRMB, GPGGA, and one of GPBOD or GPAPB

That makes life harder, because usually we do not even have access to raw GPS sentences, so we would need to be creating those messages with synthesized information. Please email us through the contact form on our website, and ask for it to be forwarded to me, and we can continue this discussion offline. In due course I'll be able to make a beta available to you for testing purposes.

How strange that now we're focusing on exactly this development, nobody in this thread wishes to help.

I would be happy to help. I have SD running on iPad Mini 4 and would want to connect to Dynon Skyview touch. Im reasonably competent but would need some guidance re hardware and connection.

Thanks, but we already support connections to Dynon Skyviews. Unless I am confused about that products in question?

Present support is to send flight plan from SD to SV via SV wifi. This thread is about real time guidance from SD to drive SV autopilot which, I understood, requires the discussed BT connection etc. Or have I misunderstood? If capability already exists to do this then fantastic- please tell me how!

From what I've heard, people drive their Skyview autopilot from the Skyview itself, having transferred the SkyDemon route on to it.

I do not know that the Skyview autopilot can be disconnected from the Skyview and given commands by other software, but if it can, and it accepts those commands via RS232, then our solution might work.
