DynaNav Installation Manual
Overview of System
The DynaFlight-AirAgII™ system is a GPS based electronic guidance and data management system specifically
designed as a tool for the pilot to fly parallel swath guidance for the application of seeds, fertilizer and chemicals for
farm and forestry applications. It also gives guidance to return back to the job to continue his application after refill.
The system automatically senses spray on and spray off for recording and displaying the real time map of the
application and displays this to the pilot in his heads up display. The system comes with a built in satellite
differential.
Mounting
GPSAntenna
Overview
As the GPS antenna has two functions, one, to view the full constellation of orbiting satellites and two, to
view the geo-stationary differential broadcast satellite positioned over the equator, the antenna should have
as much visibility of the full sky as possible.
Placement – IMPORTANT!! Make sure that the GPS Antenna is bonded to the Airframe.
The GPS antenna should be mounted on top of the aircraft/helicopter and should take into consideration
the following. See figures 1, & 2:
On helicopters, mount the antenna as far forward on the top as possible while keeping the antenna as flat to
the horizon as possible. This is to keep it away from the rotor mast as much as possible as well as lead the
pilot to the spot.
The antenna should be mounted high enough to see as much of the sky above and around so as the
fuselage does not block the signal and as far forward as possible.
Mounting on the tail would be a last resort and should only be done if Laser Gyro option is installed in the
DynaFlight.
Keep as far away from transmitting antennas as possible (at least 12 inches) If this is not possible, please
contact DynaNav for recommendations.

FIGURE 2
Telemetry and/or DifferentialAntenna (if option installed)
Overview
As the Telemetry/Differential antenna has to view the ground based broadcast antenna, the antenna should be
outside the aircraft and have visibility of this base antenna.
Placement
The ideal location for this antenna is on the bottom of the helicopter and as vertical as possible with the following
considerations:
Keep away from other communications antennas as far as possible.
Do not mount immediately next to gear struts of hook assembly
The shorter the coax the better the range.

Processor box
Overview
The DynaFlight-AirAgII processor box contains all the electronics of the system. It has a mounting plate
that is bolted to the rubber shock mount on the bottom (see:- Mounting Plate in appendix). This plate only
requires 4 mounting screws to attach therefore the extra tabs for mounting can be removed if necessary.
Placement
The processor box can be mounted either horizontal or vertical using the Mounting Plate.
The Processor box should be mounted for easy access to the PC Card.

Pilot Display
Overview
The pilot display is intended to be a “heads-up” type of display to be mounted in the field of view of the
normal operation of the pilot. As such this DynaViz™ display has multiple functions including the following:
Guidance display to guide pilot on his parallel swaths.
Pilot display for selecting CUSTOMER, AREA/FIELD, and SWATH WIDTH.
A moving map display to show last sprayed location.
Rotating Map Navigation.

The display should be mounted to best suit the requirements of both the pilot and the specific
aircraft/helicopter. This should take into consideration the following:
It should be in the direct view of the pilot, so as not to obstruct his view outside the aircraft.
The sun shroud (used on the EL type display) should be positioned for full screen visibility for the pilot while
occluding direct sunlight on the screen. As the bottom mount can be tilted from 0 to 45 degrees to adjust for
individual pilot needs, be sure the bottom plate is mounted to allow for individual pilot needs (tall or short).
The front of the screen should be oriented to front of helicopter/aircraft to give guidance information that
relates to helicopter/aircraft flight direction.
Product features
The connector plug for the DynaViz™ display can be switched from side to side to meet installation
requirements whether harness enters from either left or right side.
As the display represents the ground view, the display should be mounted as horizontal as possible so as
the pilot can see the complete screen. The EL display can be viewed a quite extreme angles and can use
either the tunnel sun shroud or the angled sun shroud.
The connector plug is a LEMO connector that is simply pushed on (align red dots first) and simply pulled off
to remove.

Control Grip or Switches
Overview
The control grip contains three primary switches that control the entire system. On our supplied
ErgoGrip™, two of these switches are contained in the single 5 way Top Hat switch and the other on a
push button switch. It is the intention of the system for the pilot to have access to these switches on his grip,
cyclic or his collective or a combination of both. Other than these switches, the DynaFlight system is wired
to the dual interface box to sense spray on/off or other actions.
Placement
If the grip, cyclic or collective have a spare Top Hat switch, it can be wired directly to the connector on the
Dual Relay box along with two other push buttons for the “accept” and the “window “ operation. This Dual
Relay box should always be used as it contains the transient spike protection circuitry. If the ErgoGrip™-
Collective switch box is used, it should be attached to the collective such as to not interfere with the normal
operation and so the top hat can be operated with the thumb. The supplied ErgoGrip™ is to replace the
existing control grip on the flight control stick.

Collective Switch

Product features
With the grip or collective switch box in the pilots hands, the pilot will be able to change job functions while
observing the display to keep his field of view outside the helicopter/aircraft, not inside the cockpit.

Dual Relay box
Overview
The dual relay box has multiple functions to interface the aircraft and the pilot to the DynaNav system.
These functions are as follows: NOTE: THIS BOX MUST BE INSTALLED IN ALL INSTALLATIONS TO
PROTECT THE COMPUTER.
To interface to sense the spray on/off of the aircraft system.
To protect the DynaNav from the electrical spikes generated by the relay action
To protect the DynaNav system from static discharge on the control switches.
To interface multiple styles of control switch assemblies or to the ErgoGrip™ control grip.
Placement
The relay box is connected directly to the DynaFlight interface harness, From the relay box two harnesses
are connected, the spray on/off sense lines and the control switch module. This does not need to be hard
mounted, however for vibration isolation, it would be best to Velcro or dual lock it to any secure surface.
Wiring
The Dual Relay wiring harness has 3 sets of wires; Spray1 and Spray2. For most installations only Spray1
is connected to sense that the pilot is applying material. For Pressure switches on the Spray Boom, make
sure the pressure is well within the range of the normal boom pressure for spraying. The Cessna P/N S-
3010-1 Hobbs pressure switch can be adjusted to the right pressure. You can also use a Honeywell/Hobbs
P/N 76575 which is the same.
