Understanding Your Autopilot
This video will introduce avionics technicians to the basics of aircraft autopilots. In this video, I talk about the basic types of systems and perform ground checks for two typical systems. I also cover some simple troubleshooting techniques.

Do I need an FAA Certificate to work in Aviation MX
Переглядів 1,1 тис.2 роки тому
This weejks video was about a question I had from a viewer. I was writing to find out some more on the FAA AET certification. Am I correct in the fact it is entry level and no prior aviation experience is required? I know a little about basic electricity as I've worked in building maintenance and currently work for a supply house, but I'd like to switch careers back to something more hands-on. ...

How to Troubleshoot a Magneto Part One
Переглядів 5 тис.2 роки тому
In this video, I have an opportunity to take a real-world problem I got called out on. A pilot reported a magneto problem on his aircraft, and I went through the first process of troubleshooting the problem. Part one will take us to the ordering of the parts we need. Then, we will repair the magneto in part two and reinstall it onto the aircraft. I am also promoting the live stream on September...

    I’m currently in the Air Force and been in avionics for about 13 years straight. I am excited about getting my A and P license and interested to see what insights you have to provide. Thank you for doing this live stream!

      Thanks for your service. I was an avionics tech in the Air Force and had to get my A&P experience doing extra work when I worked at America West Airlines. Even though I was hired as an avionics technician at the airline, they were very accommodating while I was working towards my A&P

    Hi I want to ask you how can I open my own avionic repair station? I'm working under EASA rules, but the investment is expensive I think, but how can I gain avionic components? Which are in general the steps to start own business in this field? I'm waiting for an answer thank you very much

      I couldn’t agree with you more. this was a first time ever live broadcast and Jose and I are classroom instructors. I decided to leave the video up for now than just remove it. I have had seven different jobs in four states in the last four years. So I haven’t had a computer set up for a long time. I just found my last position as a Chief Inspector for a new FAR 145 in Alabama. As soon as I find a new place to live I will setup my studio again to make videos again. be patient with me and I will begin doing videos again.

    I’m wondering if there is anyone on the planet that has a clue about troubleshooting a Century 4000 auto pilot system. My plane has the Century 4000 coupled to the Century HSI and GNS 430W. Although I’ve been flying for years I’ve never had the opportunity to use an autopilot so I do not know if the problem I’m having is me or the equipment. It will not hold an altitude reliably: constant trimming up, trimming down and not by little bits. We’re talking several hundred feet of this up and down crap. Until I can find someone to check it out it is disabled. I’m hoping it is just my lack of knowledge although I have studied the manual and it passes all the pre-flight tests. Totally sucks if I have to scrap a perfectly good HSI and autopilot system just because Century is oiut of business and no one knows how to inspect it to ensure it is working properly. I think there is a good possibility the problem is either me or a simple fix. It would be nice to know one way or another.

    • @AvionicsEducation
      @AvionicsEducation 8 місяців тому

      Without looing at the manual or the aircraft I will give my suggestion to look at. You are discribing the alitude or VNAV function of the system. I would look at where the system recieves it altitude information. If it happing enroute and not on approach then there could be a separate altitude module in the aircraft. (look for a static system connections) or altitude information is from an air data computer. I do not have a Century 4000 manual so I cannot be of more help. Good luck.

    • @brax2364
      @brax2364 8 місяців тому

      @@AvionicsEducation No worries as I do appreciate a a reply. I suppose my post was a combination venting about the current state of declining general aviation and the hope that perhaps a reader who also has a Century autopilot (or other) and perhaps identify with my issue. I got my private cert back in 1971 and it is disconcerting to see the decline in general aviation over the years. Experience SMEs retire and there seems to be a gap in the supply chain of experienced technicians taking their place. Again, thanks for the reply & I’ll check out your suggestions.

      I have had 6 jobs in aviation in four different states in the last three years. I just relocated hopelully for at least a couple of years. The problem is I have been just renting rooms in other peoples houses so I no longer have a place to record videos. I hope this industry improves and I can settle into a single job. I wuold love to teach full time online, but there is no way I can make a living teaching today. Hopefully in the Fall I can find a house to rent so set up my studio again.

    Thank you for making this. Coming from a different low voltage field and considering moving to avionics, this was informative. With regard to the first mil-spec alphabetical contact identification, I understand that the uppercase I (India), O (Oscar), and Q(Quebec) are omitted, but is it true that the exact same are omitted in lowercase? Intuitively, I was assuming that in the case of lowercase, l (lima) would be omitted as opposed to i (india), with the others making sense...

    Unwatchable. The guys is fumbling around and jumping back and forth for the first 30 minutes with his zoom. Somebody needs to tell him his multitasking abilities are not there and maybe jist focus on the task at hand. He might have a lot of knowledge but just not built to be an instructor.

    I have a j3 Cub with a c85. I check the mags before the flight and get a 125rpm on L & R. I also have moved the mag switch to OFF and the engine shuts down. However AFTER my flight when I move the mag switch to OFF the engine will not shut down. I have taken the switch apart, cleaned it, ohm checked it and it tests good. What do you think is the problem?

    • @AvionicsEducation
      @AvionicsEducation Рік тому

      You might have an intermitten ground wire from the switch to where ever its grounded. I might even be grounded through the switch mount and it could be riding on paint or corrosion.
