GTN750 for P3Dv2.5 released

[ryanbatc 12,816]

No detectable hit with the 750 - you can assign different cpu cores for it - kinda cool

[Nyxx 6,993]

Ryan does it come with upto data Nav and can it be updated with 1502 etc?

 

It really has no FPS hit? really?

 

EDIT just watched a review and it comes with only USA terran and you have to buy a DVD to get world wide.

 

nvm. Not at that cost just for the duke.

NyxxUK, it's not entirely true about the navdata/terrain anymore. Garmin released a version 5 of their trainer very recently with the *FULL Worldwide Terrain* data included for free. (I was one of the idiots to go out and buy the Garmin DVD..only for Garmin to release the bloody terrain data for free about a week later...ugh!) It's possible to 'extract' this and the Navdata from 2014 from the v5 trainer to use in the F1GTN - Have a look at this post - http://forum.avsim.net/topic/459680-gtn-750650/page-8#entry3172004

 

If you do this, just make sure you do not install the version 5 trainer, it won't work with the F1GTN, only the v2 trainer works. Flight1 have confirmed that they're updating the GTN to work with the v5 trainer but in the meantime...

 

BTW, which video did you watch?

Flight1 is working on a (free) update for the GTN750 based on the new Garmin V5 trainer. So for the patient users the full world terrain database will be available in the near future (no release date known yet) without having to juggle yourself.

Eric, I did mention that just after the bit you quoted.

 

Still, never underestimate the impatience of Flight Simmers...

OK thanks guys that's good news I will wait then.

[ryanbatc 12,816]

Nah, just get it now  B)

 

I'm totally serious - it's that good.   PM me for details

I'm doing it - there was no problem using similar to update the RXP nav data with a later GNS trainer base.  Tim-HH post looks easy . . hah!

Welll not the right one.

So if I buy it and follow the link all is fine?

I cannot install v5 can I need to run v4?

[ryanbatc 12,816]

Just email me (I PMed you again)

[Nyxx 6,993]

Enjoy!

Thanks Ryan. I'll try again. Tiberiu (one of the Flight 1 guys) said on their official forum that the problem is being caused by a high server load.

 

Wow, P3d is really gaining steam.

 

 

Is that a play on words?

Set two up in the Duke, it's like having two iPads in the way the screens work. I tested fps and even with two = 0 fps loss.

Can enter SID and STARS, this going to be amazing.

 

Stunning.
