Running PILOT through its paces on the M2E last week I've com across a few bugs I think. It's definitely a step up from Go4 and these kinks are minor but need to get sorted out.
1. The "Bottom Auxiliary Lighting" ie "Landing Light" setting is not persistent - Means it resets back to AUTO at start of every flight. I tend to know my settings from previous flights. It saves a lot of menu hunting checklist to make sure you trust it's last settings. Camera settings and sensor settings remain . . Landing light should too.
2. Same with the Histogram. It always comes up covering the flight data and I have to take time to move it out of the way when I am concentrating on flight check and departure.
3. The distance on the display stops at 998ft. It seems accurate till that point but anything beyond does not change. This may be a CrystalSky compatibility issue but more likely a PILOT software glitch. I forgot to make note if it becomes active again on the way back below 998.
4. Spot Light brightness setting is handy . .but it only allows 0-50% . . if that is as bright as it should go? . . then that should be 100% or it's missing half it's intended brightness.
