Newbie G1000

[wkent 3]

Hi, new to all this and i did search for answer

Default FSX Gold. Have issue with G1000 in both aircraft. It appears only the inner knob on the right works. I cannot move the cursor, which is apparently controlled by the outer knob.

So if i hit PROC, Select Approach, ENT that's as far as i can go.

 

Any ideas on what im doing wrong?

 

Cheers,

Wayne

Hi, Wayne. And welcome to Avsim. :smile:

 

My guess is that you have to fiddle a bit with catching the right click spot position. If you enable the FSX tooltips, you can see that this small G1000 knob features five areas with different labels. One is the push crsr in the centre, while the big and small wheel + and - clickspots are very close to each other. Still, they are separated and that's what gets you moving, so to speak.

 

Please enjoy my full artistic potential below. :wacko:

And.. if you are looking for a more capable G1000 (and one without the niggly clickspots), you might

want to consider the Flight1 C182T..

 

Assuming you have a reasonably powerful computer, since it does eat up performance..

Well that was easy, thank you gentlemen.

Powerful computer coming so I'll stick with default for now.
I had turned of tooltips supposely to improve experience.
