Brief Description:  SkyView - AP servos & configuration

Big day - finally got to AutoPilot configuration and testing. Complex because it involved detection of AP Servos, Setting Speed Tapes (defaults), and sequential function testing to activate on SkyView display. The setup is well documented in the SV Installation Manual, but does require multiple steps, and it won't go forward until each is successful.

SV Network cable connected to the SV Knob Control module, and the AP Level button was also tested. Had to troubleshoot one servo network connector but resolved quickly. Also, removed the defunct WigWag toggle and added a MOM button for the AP Disengage/Engage adjacent to the AP Power toggle. It separates the Lights (left side) from the Flight toggles (right side) of the switch panel. Did not connect or test the Pilot control stick AP Button (Tosten grip).

With AP resolved, powered up the iPad Mini and ForeFlight to test the WiFi operations. AHRS, and flight instruments quickly displayed, and test flight plan was displayed.

Started working on FLAP Position sensor harness (to VP-X).
