So I bought the GTN750 a few days ago, stuggled to install it, but worked it out in the end, but now I got a whole other problem.

When I put in a flight plan in what ever form, whether it be a direct or different legs, it does not follow it. If I activate the GPS function it automatically turn straight to the north.

I have installed and reinstalled the GTN750 and the garmin trainer. but that didn't work.

I am using the panel presets provided by Bills511 for the A2A Cessna 182.

Added a spoiler with the settings of the RealityXP.GTN.ini file.

If there is a way to fix this problem, it would be appreciated.

Not much time to scour your .ini file but right off the bat I see you have the GTN_650_1 as your Master device instead of the 750_1.  If you picked that up from bills511 then he may be using the 650 in that aircraft.  In that case you should also check the "link???=" settings for his 650 vs what you have set for your 750.

Here are my .ini settings for a 750 in that aircraft. Keep the popright section/setting you already have for the popup.  I use the 750_2 in the A2A 182 simply based on the flight plans I have stored in my 750_2.

Hi @Xander975
As Frank stated make sure your device is set as master. Easiest way is to open up the gauge settings by holding down the SHIFT key while RIGHT mouse click on top border of the GTN.
Then setting Master Device. Depending on the aircraft auto pilot function you will have to activate the appropriate settings below the Master Device setting... (Connect GPS, HSI, etc.) I turn all on. Works for me.

The RealityXP.GTN.ini stores all the settings for both the GTN 650 units 1 or 2 and GTN 750 units 1 or 2. [GTN_650_1], [GTN_650_2], [GTN_750_1], [GTN_750_2]. A2A allows a setup for a single unit 650 or 750 or both. When I use just the 650 I will have it as master device. Hence the reason it shows as MasterDevice = true for the 650. Otherwise if I use both  the 650 or 750 I will set the 750 as master device and turn off master device for the 650 by opening the gauge settings. When using the 650 as the second device then the .ini will include the settings under [GTN_650_2].

Hope this helps.

I got the GPS working, after using the information you two both gave me, now I am curious if there is a way to make use of the weather radar

No luck there. The Garmin trainer doesn't work in that regard.
