Yup, it's a nice start and it's even already in the H135 project -

Just Flight tweeted that the next update to the Arrow (coming soon) will include support for the GTN 750.

Great news, JF Arrow gets better and better 👍

Still BETA and in developement - but it is worth to try it out.

Using it for the C172 and the H135.

Way better than fiddeling around with knobs from the G1000 in flight. Well done.

And - it is still free. The base pack and the premium pack also. For the premium you have to register only to get the key ... 

Never used the RP GTN in X-Plane because it depends on Garmin Trainer and you therefore never had actual nav data.

Not the case with the PMS50 GTN. It uses the nav data from the sim and because I have Navigraph they are actual ....

Works great. So easy to input flight plans. Tried RNAV approaches got around MSFS wanting to turn you around by inputting the IAF of the procedure into the enroute portion of the flight plan. When you get close to the IAF activate the approach and it works like a champ. Also all the nearest stuff works.

 

Not bad for free 🙂

Tried this in the G36 from Hilo to Honolulu using approach entry . Was at 5000 ft all the way. I hoped to see a working VNAV approach.

Did not lock on a downward GS . I was in approach mode all the way, too. The little red diamond always sat at the bottom of the GS strip chart.

Hoped to see this work. Love the GTN750

I'm already a fan of it.

Recommandation - in the base package is a GTN 750 PDF document. You'll get it also from their website. All about installation and function.

For Flight plans: You can store up to 30 different FPl for every a/c you use with the GTN, they all treated seperately.

To import FPl - follow the instructions in the PDF.

You also can get METAR, see mentioned PDF.

For the well known bug in MSFS - wild turns when activating approach: You have to activate the approach before reaching the first waypoint of your STAR resp. APP.

 

Best regards

@Eclex No seperate AP in the GTN. Depends all on what your AP in the a/c can do .....

 

And for all "freaks": On their website you will find a document with instructions how to integrate the GTN in your airplane,

Something like they have done for the H135.  

With the package they support the standard C172 / G36 / DA40 / DA62 and C208 for now.

 

Best regards

This appears to be a bug in the core sim.... hoping that Asobo / WT will fix this at some point..

[marsman2020 1,310]

Yeah the glide path for RNAV approaches staying pegged at the bottom is an Asobo thing.  If you turn on the AP it often follows the correct path even if the 'pip' is wrong.

Read the manual carefully:

It also supports the modded versions of the DA40 and the DA62

[Ricardo41 5,948]

It's alive!

[Ricardo41 5,948]

Add some nice repaints and you're good to go!

[Ricardo41 5,948]

...and it reads MSFS generated flightplans (a copy needs to be stored in the Premium GTN 750 folder - Path: Premium - fpl - gtn750)

But it's asking me to enter the license info every time I start up the GTN 750. What am I missing?
