Dynon SkyView flight data log — export & score every landing

SkyView logs every flight automatically. Set the record rate, plug in a USB drive, export the log, and upload the .csv to landing.fyi — every landing scored 0–100.

Covers: SkyView HDX, SkyView SE/Classic, Advanced Flight Systems (AFS) variants

Step 1

1) Logging is automatic — set the record rate

A Dynon SkyView logs continuously whenever the display is powered on — there’s nothing to arm per flight. The one setting that matters is how often it records. Do it once, on the ground:

  1. Open the SETUP MENU. With the aircraft stopped, press and hold the two rightmost bottom buttons (7 and 8) together for about two seconds.
  2. Go to SYSTEM SETUP → DATA LOG SETUP → RECORD RATE.
  3. Set RECORD RATE to 1 / SEC or faster (up to 16 / sec). A slower rate skips seconds and blurs the touchdown.

SETUP MENU › SYSTEM SETUP › DATA LOG SETUP › RECORD RATE — set 1 / SEC or faster. Hold buttons 7 + 8 to open the Setup Menu.
Already flown? Your recent flights are already in the log — just confirm the record rate, then carry on to Step 2.
Step 2

2) Plug in a USB flash drive

SkyView exports to a USB flash drive — not an SD card. There’s no card slot on the bezel; the display’s USB port is wired to a panel-mount USB connector next to it.

  1. Use a FAT32 drive, 32 GB or smaller, with at least 100 MB free. Most small drives are already FAT32 — if not, format it to FAT32.
  2. Plug it into the panel-mount USB port beside the display, then leave it in and fly normally.

Plug the FAT32 USB drive into the panel-mount USB port beside the display — SkyView has no card slot.

Need one? A 32 GB USB flash drive is in spec — anything 32 GB or smaller, formatted FAT32, works.

Step 3

3) Export the log and upload it

Back on the ground, with the drive still plugged in:

  1. Hold buttons 7 and 8 to open the SETUP MENU.
  2. Go to SYSTEM SOFTWARE → EXPORT USER DATA LOGS.
  3. SkyView writes the log to the drive. Wait for the export-complete confirmation, then pull the drive. Grab the …USER_LOG_DATA.csv file — the one rolling log of your flying (occasionally split into …PART_01 / …PART_02).
  4. Leave the …BLACK_BOX_LOG_DATA.csv file on the drive. It keeps only your last few minutes in the air, so most of your landings aren’t in it.

On a computer

Plug the drive into a USB port and open it.

On a phone

A USB-C or Lightning adapter mounts the drive in the Files app — no app to install.
