Iris: Texan, am I missing something? GPS issue

Featured Replies

Does the GPS not work? I can't click any of the buttons on the GPS. How exactly do I use it or is it just a fake? Thanks

The NAV switch on the EFIS control panel toggles between VOR and GPS primary navigation modes.

That's not my problem. THe GPS that says direct to or anything does not function. Do I need to just load a flight plan through fs for it to read that? I can't enter an airport manually in that gps?

Hi - I've never had any problem with the GPS as supplied under MS FS2004 or FSX and therefore you seem to have some strange circumstances there.What supplier and aircraft are you having a problem with or is it all of them?Rgds - Roger

It's not the default GPS, it's a gps gauge specifically designed for the Iris T-6 Texan

I have the same problem here. Can't get it to function at all. Looks to me like it is just for show.Jim

It will certainly read and track a flight plan loaded into FS, so I assume if one was to add a pop up window for the default GPS, that would then allow you to access what it is displaying and change it. Bit long winded but I suspect it would work.Al

The GPS will only display a flight plan and will change as you fly each leg. Unfortunately it is non-functional as far as the buttons go...it's just for display of your current flight plan. I flew the T-6A for months...great aircraft!Brandon
