July 20, 201312 yr So far I am loving the 206, but I have one problem, on the RXP530 in the virtual cockpit, the VNAV button was replaced with TERR... Is this supposed to happen? I submitted tickets and sent emails to both Carenado and RXP, but no contact from them, so I turn to you guys, the guys on the line (which in my opinion are better than the default customer service...shhhh :lol: )
July 20, 201312 yr Carenado put a TERR button there for their GNS - which has a Terr map page. As long as you look for the "pink" hand to appear when you mouse over the knobs, you can push there and get the RXP VNAV page to appear.. Just one of those little things.. Bert
August 9, 201312 yr Carenado put a TERR button there for their GNS - which has a Terr map page. Hi, One for you Mr Bert. I went and got the Reality XP GPS for my 206 and for the other Carenado aircraft I have, and as pointed out in this post the TERR button on the GPS is still visable on the VC panel which now does VNAV, But on the pop up 530 the terrain button has been changed to read VNAV in stead of TERR. Question is it possible to get the VC GPS to read VNAV? Yet another attention to detail missed by the Carenado team Timm “Tomorrow is the most important thing in life.

August 9, 201312 yr Hi, After some cutting and pasting I have done my own VNAV button on the GPS. So now the two match up. If anyone would like a copy PM your email address and I will send you a copy. Timm “Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. It comes to us at midnight very clean.

August 9, 201312 yr Done some touching up on the GPS. Added XP to the VC one, re-done the VNAV button. Timm “Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. It comes to us at midnight very clean.

August 10, 201312 yr Hi Guys: What the advantage of buying a Reality XP GPS - doesn't the aircraft come with all you need to begin with Does this work with most carenados ? Thank you Rich Sennett
August 10, 201312 yr If you would like a realistic Garmin GNS, the Reality XP GNS delivers that. You use the real world Garmin Pilots Guide to operate it.. Since it is a WAAS model, it also supports LPV landings.. And yes, it also works in other GNS530 equipped Carenado aircraft. Bert
August 10, 201312 yr Yep, the RXP really is the bees knees. Put it this way, it is operating directly from the GNS530W trainer from Garmin... Therefore it is basically replicating the 530W as Garmin present it through their trainer for crew that use it..It's epic.

August 11, 201312 yr Hmm you Guys sound quite happy with it yet I cant fine one decent video on this to see if this is something to invest in, thanks Guys Rich Sennett
August 11, 201312 yr There are lots of training videos for the Garmin GNS530... try watching those.. Or, download the Garmin Trainer and run it by itself - it will give you a feel for how the unit operates. http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=3531 BTW.. the use interface is better on the RXP unit.. you use the mouse wheel to turn the knobs. Bert
November 17, 201312 yr You seem like the go to guy Bert, I ran the installer on the B200 that was included, I see XP on the face-plate. Won't switch on? Do I need to purchase something directly from Reality XP?
