Additional Resources
Dynon Avionics’ Internet sites provide frequently updated information on installation and
operation issues:
Dynon Avionics’ Documentation Wiki –
– provides additional
technical information on Dynon products.
Dynon Avionics’ Online Customer Forum
– is a resource for
Dynon Avionics customers to discuss installation and operation issues relating to Dynon
Avionics products. The Forum is especially useful for pilots with uncommon aircraft or unusual
installation issues. For customers that cannot call Dynon Technical Support during our normal
business hours, the Forum is a convenient way to interact with Dynon Avionics Technical
Support. The Forum allows online sharing of wiring diagrams, photos, and other types of
electronic files.
Dynon will continue to develop kits and installation instructions for more aircraft based on
demand. It is also expected that aircraft manufacturers will develop their own mounting kits for
Dynon servos or offer the Dynon AP as a factory option. If Dynon does not currently offer a
mounting kit for your particular aircraft, and you would be inclined to assist in developing a kit
and documentation, please send an introductory email message about your interest

Servo Mechanical Installation
Dynon Avionics has researched suitable mounting points for a number of popular aircraft and
offers mounting kits and instructions for them. If you have purchased one of these kits, use the
instructions included with it as your primary guide; the following mechanical installation
information is more general in nature. If you have purchased cable-drive capstan servos (SV32C
or SV42C), refer to the documentation that came with the included Capstan Accessory Kit
(101116-000).
For installing Dynon Avionics servos in aircraft for which Dynon does not offer kits, we offer a
Generic Servo Installation Kit (101020-000) of basic parts and basic installation instructions. The
generic servo push-pull mounting kit includes some of the hardware to mount a servo and
connect to the aircraft controls, but requires the installer to fabricate mounting brackets. This
kit can be used in either pitch or roll applications that use a servo with an output arm (not
suitable for use with pulley/cable servos). Some additional fasteners (not supplied by Dynon)
and brackets will be required depending on the installation method chosen.
Neglecting to properly install and/or use Dynon Avionics AP hardware can result in
failures which could cause loss of aircraft control resulting in aircraft damage,
personal injury, or death. If there are any questions on the part of the installer it is
mandatory to resolve these questions prior to flight.
When installing the servo, you must first determine a mount location for proper interaction
with the existing control system. The mounting point that is chosen must allow the servo arm
