Default HSD sequencer?

Hello,

just wondering if anyone has had any experience with the pneumatic electric sequencers? It seems they come in some skymaster planes, but I’ve never seen one being used. I am asking because I am in the process of rebuilding a skymaster a10 and I’m looking into getting an “all in one” solution for the pneumatics. Just curious if these are any good.

I have ordered one now 18 days ago and have yet to receive it nor have I heard anything from HSD regarding shipping. At 28 days in, I will start a dispute with PayPal.

I'd say, not a fantastic start, but if it shows, that will be nice.

I’m interested in either the one you posted or the “pro” version. They look like pretty neat devices.

Hey Terry, I have received no email, tracking number or the sequencer.

And to the OP, the pic that Terry posted is of the original dreamworks version of the hsd sequencer. I have 4 of them that I’ve used for years and I am replacing one that worked for me for 10 years. I love them. Just use a water trap, it’s an absolute must. If I ever receive the hsd one, I’ll be able to compare it.

I replied to your PM. Yes, the attempted delivery must be the sequencer. I'll post up some pics of it when I get it. Thank you Terry!

I ordered and received one of the new HSD sequencer to replace the original airpower (dreamworks just re-sold the airpower unit) EVSD-5U I had in my SM hawk. It was almost a plug and play replacement and

It works almost exactly the same except for one major annoying difference.....

The delay the valve applies is not just to the gear door channels. i.e. my gear door remain open after gear extension so "mode 1" on the valve. When I hit retract, the sequencer waits the set delay (2.5s in my case) before cycling the gear up. really annoying, I need to get my gear up quickly after takeoff before the airspeed builds up to high and causes the mains issues.

Also when you hit the retract switch you feel like something isn't working waiting that long. not happy about it, but i guess it is what it is. it would be much better if you could control delays between any of the sequencing of the cycles

Thanks for the heads up!

My valve arrived yesterday. It replaces a 10+ year old unit, so it has big shoes to fill! I’m sure it’ll do great.
