Looks like this was resolved in the last update. Only two flights, different days, but I am optimistc.

Thanks, guys!

I don't think it's resolved; I'm running the latest version and had to reboot twice yesterday to get the correct date and time. The longer the time interval between flights the greater the chance of an incorrect date and time.......

Re: Clock

Any chance the fix for the clock / date operating system issue will be in the upcoming version 9? I flew this morning and the date was off by exactly one week; I had to reboot my '720 twice to obtain a correct setting. This error is now occuring over 50% of the time on my '720.

Re: Clock

Well, I thought this was resolved in v.9, but maybe not:

Short flight on Memorial Day, clock came up correctly as 12:30 pm. After about 45 min., stopped for fuel, re-started and it came up as 11:00 am!

Disclosure: After fueling, engine would not start, but still moved the prop through, so battery was not completely dead. Prop start and I was on my way.
