I think I would probably give it another go if they ever did add support for the TDS 650Xi but that doesn't seem to be on their radar anytime soon.

You can use the stand alone PMS GTN750 with it.

They said it was considered a while back but yeah.

Oh, I completely understand the source of your premise. You were not being disingenuous but unfortunately developers might be.

I prefer the TDS over PMS but thanks for letting me know.

They also said that they were going to make a series of advanced tutorial videos, when it was released, but that never happened either. 

 

 

 

For clarity, this topic has nothing to do with the quality of the aircraft model and everything to do with whether it is made compatible with a third party GPS Navigator?

This plane flies great for me. Love this plane. The latest update a few days ago didn't improve anything for me as it was already pretty good. Followed nav tracking, did some radio nav later that day and it made a good ILS approach into KSAN.

I do still use the "engineer" at times when I want to just jump in and fly (busy life).

They did. There is a very intensive YT tutorial that goes over everything. It was released I think a day (week?) or so before release.

I use the JayDee mod that allows the PMS750 (as the 650 version) in place of the default garmin. I do that or sometimes use the PMS750 pop out version. I realize that you don't have that version so I guess it doesn't help you. It might help others though. I love having the 650 in the plane.

Those are the dozen  or so Tutorials that were released around the release of the DC6. IN one of the later tutorials, he promised that he was going to make a series of "advanced Tutorials" to further explain many of the features of the DC6. These advanced tutorials have never appeared.

Ha. Well, those were advanced for me haha. I didn't realize. They did go fairly in depth from what I remember.
