Overview

Note: Only for use with Dynon SkyView system.

Integrated: Made for the SkyView System with control and annunciation appearing on the SkyView Display. The transponder module can be mounted anywhere in the airplane that is convenient.

Traffic: Features TIS Traffic (USA).

ADS-B Out via 1090 ES: Meets USA and Europe ADS-B Out Mandates. FAA ADS-B Mandate compliance requires that a suitable GPS position source such as the Dynon SV-GPS-2020 GPS Receiver/Antenna module be connected. Alternatively, a TSO’d GPS position source can be used, typically from a connected certified GPS IFR navigator.

Additional U.S. ADS-B OUT Compliance Information: The FAA ADS-B "final rule" only allows the higher power Class 1 transponder to be used as an ADS-B Out transmit device for ADS-B Out mandate compliance on or after 2020. Therefore, for U.S. customers, we recommend only the Class 1 SV-XPNDR-261.

Dynon Warranty, Support, and Service: These transponders come with a 3-year Dynon Warranty.



Mounting: At only 1 pound and 5.6" by 1.8" by 2.4", the transponder module can fit into the tiniest places and aircraft. A quick release mounting system allows for simple installation and easy removal if needed for service.

  • Connections: The SV-XPNDR-26X connects to a serial data line on each SkyView Display.
  • Mechanical Dimensions: The display mechanical drawings can be downloaded here:

Almost a plug and play! Easy to install. Support from Dynon and Aircraft Spruce was exceptional. Made it a breeze to install in an amateur built experimental RANS S12 XL. Integrates very well with the SV system. Set on Auto, one less thing to keep on the checklist. Now adding Dynon SV Radio and intercom for even more stress free flying!
