Using the latest versions of IFD100 & IFD540's (dual), I am noticing some minor squawks.

I think the first is old...

1. Local Time showed 3 AM when it was really 8+ AM. Zulu Time works fine.

2. Pulling ADSB Wx from MLB100 (dba Skytrax100) via IFD540, the

only Wind Altitude showing is FL03.0. All Wind FL's ok on IFD540's, but on IFD100, seems to be locked on 3000'. So, I don't display WINDS anymore on the IFD100. All other Wx functions OK (Sigmets, Metars. Conus, etc).

Anybody else having this??

I concur that the IFD-100 app does not handle UTC offset settings correctly.

I have not taken at look at ADSB wind data from the IFD-100, so no comment there.

In recent flights, I am using the IFD100 more than FF, but still surprised Avi-Tech Support has neither commented nor fixed the "Designated Waypoint" Squawk:

. Works great on the panel IFD's

. On IFD100, this datablock shows the chosen block from the panel only.

IOW, on the IFD100, this Designated Waypoint block does NOT ACtivate or allow a choice to be made.

To bad, as this is one of the most useful datablocks available.

Whats up with this?

We know about the problem and it will be fixed in the IFD100 release corresponding to 10.3

On my last flight the IFD100 did not sync completely with the IFD440 ...

The frequencies of the IFD440 all showed up, but no route, not in the FMS and not on the map Actually it did show up first but disappeared later!

Latest iOS (14.7) on iPad mini (5), latest database on both the IFD and in IFD100.
