I've just purchased the C208 HD for FSX. The only pop up I can get for the GNS430 is 'Shift & 1' and on my triple screen set up It is ridiculously wide & flat. Most pop ups are like this on my set up, but I am able to resize vertically & horizontally by putting the mouse cursor on the respective edges. This facility does not work on this Carenado C208. Also it works independently from the panel. For example the panel GNS can be switched on, but when I 'Shift & 1 to bring the pop up, I have to switch on again on the pop up. On the GNS panel I can get the 'ILS arrows' at the 10 mile scale, but on the pop up can only get them at the 5 mile scale which is of no use to me. I have read about the Reality XP gauges on this forum, will all of my issues disappear if I purchase the GNS 430 WAAS?

My other problem is in 'spot view' it's as if I have AA disabled and I get jagged edges especially around the leading edges of the wings. I do not have any issues like this with any other aircraft addons that I have, but this is the first 'HD' is this the problem even though my set up is relatively good i.e i7 965 cpu,6 gb memory, 280 gtx gpu, using win7 Ultimate 64 bit, with triple (Matrox) 24" sceens.

 

Can anyone help with these issues?

try resizing on the left side. otherwise see this where the guy fixed it.

 

i think it is this one. just check the guy uploaded a few stuff here. You will see in description it says it is for C208

if you need more help try contact the guy in the readme file. he fixed a few things for me a while ago.

Thanks for the response (Flying_Bob), but as I said I can't resize the pop up image, and although I have looked at your suggestion, that's about altering the on board GNS 430, I really needed to know whether it was worth considering buying the Reality XP GNS 430 gauge. i.e. would all of my GNS430 issues disappear?

if you have the money go ahead and buy R XP
