This morning ahead of AirVenture 2026, Dynon announces stand alone IFR capability for their touchscreen HDX systems both certified and experimental. No more needing a third party unit for IFR, no need for panel space! Modular install on the back of the unit like their other components! Best part is in the email they sent, they call the future pricing extremely disruptive to the IFR market!
I have been telling folks for 3-4 years now that Dynon over Garmin was the way to. Garmin builds excellent stuff, but so does Dynon and their value vs innovation has been better. Now with a Dynon system, you won’t have to buy an expensive IFR GPS to pair with your system costing 15-25K more. Game changer in GA!
I have personally had 2 full HDX systems installed in my planes and love them! Looking forward to this IFR add on as my Garmin 530W is aging. Plus I am sure as Dynon always does, more capabilities will be released via software updates as it develops further! Exciting stuff!
Dynon moves to eliminate the traditional radio stack with an internal IFR GPS for SkyView HDX.
